Description

Jury Report

The jury had some regard for the general architectural character of this submission and they liked the idea of the relationship of private to collective landscaped open space. They were disappointed in the back-to-back unit grouping, and thought the site planning looked too random in execution despite their regard for the idea. They also concluded that the staggered forms of the unit groupings were structurally incompatible with the system proposed for underground parking.
