Goal: To create Architecture that embodies the basic idea of sport: interaction, healthy active lifestyle, competition, and enjoyment of outdoor space.

Through site: create an urban landscape that reconnects the city and promotes interaction.  The landscape organizes the city, building in the landscape creates a deeper connection to the city than building on the street network.

Through Program:  Add program elements that promotes a healthy lifestyle, competition, outdoor space blended with indoor program. 

Through soccer: the most universally played sport, has the least amount of equipment, interaction, healthy, active, competitive, connection with outdoors.

An exploration of site:
There are 5 unique street walls to my site that will have to be explored separately in order to create the best connection to the city.
These sections explore how a 3-4 story street wall could be incorporated into a stadium and park.
These sections examine different ways of how a park can be blended with a stadium.
A street corner exploration of park, stadium, and city.
