Zombie Walk :: Tom took us on a of 3 miles from 7am-3pm to orientate ourselves with the city and avoid jet lag.Promenade Plantee :: Old railway taken over and used as linear park ~1993.L’arsenale :: Museum dedicated to the documentation of urban growth of Paris, from past to future projects, including models and drawings.La Siene + Pont de l’Archevêché :: River way that cuts through city, along the bank wall the city has created shelters for gift sales, the bridge is famous where lovers lock their love on the bridge.Notre Dame :: 1862 Gothic Structure displaying thinness of structureCentre Pompidou :: 1977 Post Modern structure displaying thinness of structure

Passages :: went through historic, mercantile passages. developed by mercantile guild to take people off streets into a more shopping friendly area.Le Palais Royal :: first urban park/square. shopping aligning interior of park courtyard, first restruant established here.Eco School :: Jean Francois Schmidt. tour new urban school houses 1-12 grade in onestructure, living walls grow food by cafeteria, phasing of construction to be open during building.la Petite Ceinture :: first portion of new linear park. odd conditions made by site leftovers.

Louvre :: modern and historic interventions intwined into one space. Historically a place for govt oficials now space inhabits most visited public museum. Glass structure designed by RFR.

la Petite Ceinture :: previously used as a railway to orbit city and bring cargo from station to station. Now aban-doned, with new intervention as a linear path. I speculate the only introduction was the reddish gravel and wood deck, but was just placed atop the rail lines, all planting was naturalisation.

Free day:: Went to Basilica of the Sacré Cœur.Parc Martin Luther King :: by Porte de Clichy.Tower Flower :: by Eduoard Francois :: how parisians move furniture into apartments.Arc de Triomphe :: Avenue des Champs-Élysées :: Fouquet’s Barriere Hotel.Champ de Mars :: Eiffel Tower

Champ de Mars: main lawn/park in front of Eiffel Tower. Tourist + Parisians alike enjoy this spectacle and view nighlty.

What is a Parisian wall. Traditional facade design next to the l’arsenale. Play on Parisian facade by Eduoard Fran-cois, a hotel just off Avenue des Champs-Élysées, a major historical boulevard

First site introduction :: next to architectural school :: once was area filled with warehouses Paris has deemed to remove industrail facilities and redevelop for more housing.Bibliothèque nationale de France :: rare books collection for all of paris. private garden for reading.Place Simone de Beauvoir :: Pedestrian bridge by RFR engineers.Parc De Bercy :: industrial area redeveloped as a large park. warehouses on the end are new markets.Went to Museo D’arcy + Museo Rodin, no photos. saw Picasso self portrait and thinking man statue.Extended images :: Play on Parisian facade at Ministère de la Culture et de la Communication next to Palais Royal.

Scars + Leftovers :: exploration of the parting walls and leftovers creaetd by urban developement over time.introduced new site :: Derive alon Boulevard Voltaire and Boulevard Richard Lenoir, follow historic farm grid and cross new urban interventions.Parc de la Villette :: large park redevelopement with follies on grid to tie this large park together.

Porte de Clichy site :: green wall, knife edge and watering detail.revisit site 1: look at Bibliotequa again. pass by Garte EsteGraffiti and guerrila city usage :: facade paint, parting wall as canvas, next to Centre Pompidou, where kids stole construction fencing to use as goal posts for ad hoc games, shopping cart + charcoal + tin bucket + Shelving wire = food cart sales.

Eden Bio :: Edouard Francois, exterior circulation is stairs no wrapping corridor, vines screen on wooden structureRive Gauche site :: looking at what is existing, art to architecture, the open block building.

La Villete site :: this seems the most charged location. areas are taken over by inhabitants, tagged and claimed. thinking about the spaces of new development within the city then just south of the extent of redevelopment lies a thin slice adjacent to the raised abandoned railway that is being left alone and undeveloped. Why is Paris not planning for these Areas. are they too thin to develop? What can become of these spaces?

Rotterdam :: modern city, no pavement, all pavers, pervious to deal w constant moisture.Urban Design :: zones for each mode, car, pedestrian, bikeNAI + Park :: museum dedicated to the architecture and design cataloging of the NetherlandsRenzo Piano + OMA + Norman Foster right next to eachother.

Rotterdam :: city of imports and exports, the industrial and material quality of the built environment

Amsterdam :: a surprise awaits around each corner. from biking to the east docks and all around the city, to walking around the inner canals and areas with dim lit lights, theres always a surprise, something to learn from or avoid.

Rotterdam :: temporary restraunt while development is in halt. surprisingly enough the space does not feel as small and tight as one would believe. then a flight out of Amsterdams international airport.

OPEN SPACE :: comparison of first square in city of Paris, a neighborhood park, and private courtyards. All at the same scale. it is interesting to notice that in a city of multiple lines in multiple directions, they try to create order in what appears to be disorder.

Ground Truthing

The city of Paris is a very dense city in terms of tracings. Tracing layers upon layers of information is readily available. The lines of city walls built up then torn down, the lines of fences between farm lands become streets and lands become city. Solid becomes void, void becomes solid, ages of flux. Each decade brings in new lines, lines for defense, lines for transportation, lines for separation or conveyance, each with change something else as time goes by. Along these lines either roads, pathways, the river, the canals, railways, or building edges exist a communication of two lines dialogue between its neighboring line. Within the numerous conditions of lines, the city has kept a very similar procedure in dealing with the overlap of lines. Points are made within the city, all of which are told to be important just by the organization of the lines to points. Intentions of creating nodes for gathering, implemented and functioning very successfully. The monuments and parks are visited, used and recreated. Within the use of the cities infrastructures the underlying ground truth discovered was the impact of merchants on the interaction between lines and points. Often latching on to lines in order to have prime location for selling wares. What is not in the tracings are the methods used by merchants to latch onto the lines of the city in order to sell cliché products to tourists. Small shops that act as lockers for postcards and mini eiffel towers are latched onto the wall of the divider between the sidewalk and Seine River. Which turns what was once infrastructures for the city into a multiplicity of program. These are more of a formal instance for the use on lines and points to be places of convergence. Informal instances exist. Along subway stops, people will pull up a table and sell small selections of fresh fruit from 3-6 pm to catch the workers on their way home who made need a quick bite, or need a slight restock for their flat, the prices are cheap also. In addition to impromptu fruit salesman, there are corn on the cob home-made food cart vendors. These vendors would take shopping carts and use them to hold a metal 5 gallon bucket plus metal shelf turned into an ad hoc charcoal grill, cooking corn husks and selling buttered corn on the cob. These where more popular and much quicker at selling their goods than fruit sales men in front of the metro stops. At popular parks (points) throughout the city, teams of sales men walk around the area trying to sell cheese, wine, or bread to parks visitors and spectators. A constant and almost all day affair. It appears that there is a system in place of people who walk around selling items, and a few oth-ers that restock from grocery stores just off the periphery too far for people in leisure to stroll too. In addition to people taking vending into their own hands, the city has an organizing system in place for locations throughout the city to be turned into public markets or even used locations for residents to sell wares produce or domestic. The way these locations made are like the other vendors booths that latch on to the infrastructure of the city. However these structures are less permanent. These market structures are made of points, lines and surfaces like that of the city. Point grid in the floor of numerous plazas allow for vertical lines to be placed in them delineating a square form. Next horizontal lines connect the vertical ones, with a surface draped over them. Simplistic tent structure that allows for multiple uses in numerous locations across the city. When these structures are absent from the plaza the spaces appear to be utilized as a square, but when present the entire plaza becomes an active market. All this space requires is the addition of a few sticks and fabric to liven up what would appear to be nothing in a tracing. This cities procedure of latching onto the lines of infrastructure to create vending could not be seen on the created maps printed out and used to coordinate around the city, only found by being on the ground and interacting with the city itself.

“The future is not what it used to be.” Laura Riding and Robert Graves (1937)

The city of Paris is constantly building and rebuilding. In addition to constant outward growth since its origins, Paris has continued to replace or repurpose the land and the structures within its walls as needs change and programs evolve.

Paris acquired a rail infrastructure in the 1800’s, leading to not a single central station but rather a series of stations located at points in the city that correspond, like a compass, to the destinations they serve. A service rail line, the “Petite Ceinture” (little belt) was created at the outer edge of paris, circling the city and connecting stations. Unlike the architecture and planning of the stations, which were configured as monuments within the city, the Petite Ceinture cohabitates rather than interacts with the parts of the city it traverses. As the Petite Ceinture passes through neighborhoods, it leaves series of varied and oddly configured spaces left over between the rail and city fabric. However, Paris abandoned the use of this rail line in the mid 1930’s and plan to convert it into a 22 mile long public linear park, yet those spaces in between remain.

This involved taking inventory of the range and type of residual spaces, questioning housing as a typology and continuing to push and play with how these two scenarios work together.

Looking beyond, situations of narrow and residual spaces exist in cities all over, the task ahead would be to propose the notion of dropping these houses into cities across the globe, almost like anti-bombs (a-bombs?), bringing density into the city by utilizing not destroying space.
