Triumphal square
General concept
Problems identified:
1. The only foreseen activity for pedestrians in this area is passive standing and sitting. Lack of interactive areas. | 5. The area is divided into several parts by motorways. This creates an inconvenience for pedestrians and visually kills the overall perception of the area. |
2. It is impossible to cross Tverskaya Street in this place. Pedestrians need to make a big detour. | 6. Narrow sidewalk in front of the theater. |
3. Underground pedestrian crossing is a barrier for people with limited mobility. | 7. «Knocked out» piece of the square. |
4. Lack of greenery and quiet cozy corners. Employees of neighboring offices are not comfortable spending time on the square. | 8. Poorly organized parking, lots of cars on the sidewalks. |
Project proposal: shaping schemes
uniform paving of the entire area | ground pedestrian crossings in convenient places | deepened inner square - zone with an amphitheater |
inner area: cafes, shops, toilets and information center | underground parking | translucent ceiling of a covered pedestrian passage |
