曼哈顿岛U型的保护系统|THE BIG U REBUILD BY DESIGN|赢得竞赛3.5亿

丹麦建筑事务所BIG最近针对曼哈顿岛各个社区和焦点设计了一个U型的保护系统提案，该系统西达57街，东至42街，绵延10英里，为低洼地带提供了一个超乎想象的活力保护带。保护带不仅屏蔽雨洪，还针对各个不同的公共领域做出不同的社区和环境改建，提供各个相对独立的区域灵活化功能块。采用物理防护的办法保护区域免遭洪水破坏。这些区域可以单独建设，最后完成闭合。

The Big U is a protective system that encircles Manhattan, responding to the needs and concerns of the island’s diverse communities.Stretching from West 57th Street south to The Battery and up to East 42nd Street, the Big U protects 10 continuous miles of lowlying geography that comprise an incredibly dense, vibrant, and vulnerable urban area.The proposed system not only shields the city against floods and stormwater; it provides social and environmental benefits to the community, and fosters an improved public realm. For Phase 3 of Rebuild by Design, the Big U team created coordinated plans for three contiguous but separate regions of the waterfront dubbed “compartments.” Each compartment comprises a physically discrete flood-protection zone that can be isolated from flooding in adjacent zones. Each presents unique opportunities for integrated social and community planning. The compartments work in concert to protect and enhance the city, but each compartment’s proposal is designed to stand on its own. Proposed solutions for the components were designed in close consultation with the associated communities and many local, municipal, State and Federal stakeholders; each proposal has a benefit-cost ratio greater than one; and each is flexible, easily phased, and able to integrate with existing projects in progress.
