City of 2110
Urbaneering Brooklyn
Our
primary assertion for Brooklyn 2110 is that all necessities are provided
inside its accessible physical borders. We have designed an intensified
version of Brooklyn that supplies all vital needs for its population.
In this city, food, water, air, energy, waste, mobility, and shelter are
radically restructured to support life in every form. The strategy
includes the replacement of dilapidated structures with vertical
agriculture and housing merged with infrastructure. Former streets
become snaking arteries of livable spaces embedded with; renewable
energy sources, soft cushion based vehicles for mobility, and productive
green rooms. The plan uses the former street grid as the foundation for
new networks. By reengineering the obsolete streets, we can install
radically robust and ecologically active pathways. These operations are
not just about a comprehensive model of tomorrow’s city, but an initial
platform for discourse. We think the future will necessitate marvelous
dwellings coupled with a massive cyclical resource net. The future will
happen, how we get there is dependent upon our planned preparation and
egalitarian feedback.
