Tarrytown-Transit Oriented Pedestrian Community

The proposed development places a particular focus on sustainable and healthy living, with programs catering to both young and ageing demographic. The buildings are shaped to create scenic walkways and connect paths between the many buildings of the complex. 

With a network of pedestrian/bike paths weaving through the ground-level commercial space, car traffic on the site will be virtually eliminated. 

In addition, the green roofs act as another method of further mitigating the heat and a low energy incentive.

Community and neighborly interaction are encouraged in the very shape of the building. The public path becomes a social condenser; a path where people can leisurely shop, have informal gatherings, go jogging, or take walks.

All in all, the primary aim is to create a seamless combination of architecture and nature that will provide a quintessential environment for communal facilities and sustainable living … leading to a healthy and happy lifestyle.
