About Nyc 2050 Drafitry Ankapoben'ny Tanàna
NYC 2050 dia drafitry ankapoben'ny tanàna ho an'ny New York City izay mamaly ny fiakaran'ny haavon'ny ranomasina. Ny drafitra dia mandalina ny tantaran'ny sisin-tany any Manhattan ary mampiseho ny fomba ahafahan'ny tanàna mifanaraka indray amin'ny ho avy. Ny tondra-drano dia raisina ho ampahany amin'ny fiainana andavanandron'ny tanàna, ka i Venise no ampiasaina ho fanoharana. Ny drafitra ankapobe dia mampiseho ireo fanovana ilaina mba hahatafavoaka ny tanàna voatondra-drano ho toerana mavitrika sady manan-danja eo amin'ny sehatra iraisam-pirenena. Ny tolo-kevitra dia tohanan'ny fikarohana momba ny vinavina mikasika ny toetr'andro, ary aseho amin'ny endrika sary numerika novolavolaina, amin'ny bikany efa-joro.

- Production Technology
- The whole masterplan was designed and created using photo manipulations on Photoshop.
- Design Challenge
- The critical part was to carefully study the city's current masterplan in order to better design the new one that required major real state compromises. The new design had to accommodate the necessary changes, introduce a new urban life and reimagine a new New York that is ready to embrace the future.
- Research
- The masterplan was conceptualized by studying the history of Manhattan's edge, the climate crisis predictions by the United States Landfalling Hurricane Probability Project, and several climate studies produced by the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies.
- Inspiration
- As one looks throughout the history of Manhattan's edge, one may realize how it has changed throughout the years in order to better adapt the city to the needs of the time. This masterplan addresses the necessary changes to make NYC a resilient city as it embraces the current climate crisis and it readapts itself once again for the future. By taking Venice as inspiration and letting the flood be part of the city life, a new New York is brought to life.
- Project Duration
- August - December 2015. Ithaca, NY.
Walmir Luz, Thesis, Bachelor of Architecture, Cornell University. - Operation Flow
- This masterplan can be used to identify the changes that NYC will have to implement in order to accommodate the needs of a flooded city.
