First look at RSHP's 99 Bishopsgate scheme today in Building Magazine and Building Design. At 240m, this would be the fourth biggest tower in the City if it gets built, a major addition to the eastern cluster which also includes RSHP's Cheesegrater. Question the practice will be asking at today's consultation event is whether the public like the look of it. Personally, compared to many of the cluster's other towers (one in particular springs to mind) I think it's pretty good. But will it get a nickname? https://lnkd.in/eGTHkGnp

At The Pulse of Amsterdam, where everything and everyone comes together, accessibility plays a significant role.   Located just 150 metres away from Amsterdam Zuid station, The Pulse already offers exceptional access to public transport and the A10 highway. But that’s not all – through parking and charging facilities, we are prepared to accommodate approximately 1300 cyclists! Additionally, for those using more than just two wheels, 126 parking spaces will be provided, all equipped with a charging station.   Our goal is to increase the number of shared mobility parking spaces, making it easier for everyone to embrace a more sustainable way of getting around. That is why 45 spaces are assigned to the shared mobility concept.

A must watch for anyone interested in the next chapter of the story that is Manchester’s growth and evolution as an international city. The outward expansion of the city centre into its forgotton hinterland presents the opportunity to create green, livable new neighbourhoods, connected into the commercial core. Something regularly pointed out as lacking in Manchester. This opportunity hasn’t really presented itself so far as we have been regenerating whilst working with relatively small landholdings in the traditional city centre in the main. Very difficult to create new ‘places’ and build the infrastructure (green and open spaces in this case) whilst working at that scale. Victoria North, Holt Town etc offer room to breathe by comparison. This is neighbourhood scale place making. The next twenty years look very different to the last twenty.

UNDERSTAND THE RULES AND THEN KNOW HOW TO INTERPRET THEM TO YOUR FAVOUR. We apply strategic design techniques and clever interpretations of the rules and legislation to ensure you gain the optimum FSR for gross lettable or saleable space. FSR is a key element shaping the development landscape across Australia. With a solid understanding of how to calculate and optimise FSR, we can help you make informed and valuable decisions that will optimise your property’s potential while adhering to local planning controls.

Finally, from my perspective to build this kind of building we need a solid  foundation. I learned in my research mostly all over New York City was  based on the rock zone area. It gives a strong foundation to build such a  skyscraper firstly we have a very solid foundation. All things considered, the Brooklyn Tower becomes a representation of  modernity, a place where sustainability, efficiency, and creative design come  together. The project's effective integration of prefabrication and modular  construction techniques not only accelerate construction timelines and cost-effectiveness but also establish the project as a model for future urban developments, highlighting the transformative power of innovative  construction techniques. The Brooklyn Tower, a prominent landmark in the  sky is more than just a structure, but is also evidence of the boundless  opportunities that arise when architectural brilliance and inventiveness  converge in the dynamic field of urban building.

An interesting take on 8 Bishopsgate in the Architectural Record article linked below. I contributed some engineering tidbits that help explain how the building balances beautiful architecture with intelligent engineering. Want to find out more? Give it a read, it's worth it. ⬇

Located in midtown Manhattan, the 1,428-foot-high skyscraper is the second-tallest residential tower in the Western Hemisphere.

This Appeal decision overturning all 16 reasons for refusal by Lambeth Council to re-develop this brownfield site with 24 new apartments and houses in the middle of an urban block on Brixton Hill, Lambeth, London was one of the highlights of last year. I am especially pleased by this result because by the time of the enquiry 6 reasons remained unresolved which were all design related such as character, massing, living conditions and impact on neighbours. The Inspector found the design to be satisfactory in all matters and confirmed that we managed to optimise the capacity of this brownfield site with a high-quality design-led approach. “It (the proposal) therefore complies with Policy Q5 of the L-LP which requires local distinctiveness to be sustained and reinforced and Policy Q7 of the L-LP which requires high quality design. It also complies with Policy D3 of the LP which requires a design-led approach to optimise site capacity and high quality design.” – Inspector appointed by the Sectretary of State #residentialdesign #regeneration #brownfield #brixton #london #contemporaryhome #contemporaryarchitecture #rohacsarchitects #rohacs
