Alexandra Park is a community driven neighborhood with a history of engaged residence and community members that have brought positive change to the area.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the diverse culture of Alexandra Park and the need to break down barriers, we will design a public space that supports existing programs within the community and allows for their expansion, while encouraging public life and creating a venue for neighboring communities to mingle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexandra\u2019s Walk<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"alexandra's walk\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4094\/4743124097_1249811060_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>An illustration of how the banners would display art done by members of Alexandra Park. <!--more--><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>To connect the neighborhood to its surroundings and link our key areas of design intervention, we created a pathway called\u00a0Alexandra\u2019s Walk.\u00a0The lampposts and neighborhood banners were our way of beautifying the streetscape with local art, drawing attention to the walkway and rebranding the neighborhood as friendly, family and community oriented.

Our idea was to expand on the working caf\u00e9 and cooking program, creating a full working kitchen for chef training and expanding the caf\u00e9 to be a destination spot. This is one of the ways in which we are encouraging people to come into the community and break down the barriers between the neighborhoods in the area. \u00a0The transitional area we created between the sidewalk and centre was also meant to do the same by blurring line between the sidewalk and the park area. By creating steps for people to sit on in the grass, it also becomes a place where people will stay and hopefully create a constant hub of activity. We maintained and expanded the community garden surrounding the entrance as a way of maintaining community identity.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"rendering\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4100\/4743761008_87b6732d4b_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Rendering of entry points to Scadding Court Community Centre.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The <em>Alexandra\u2019s Marketplace<\/em> was created between the community centre and the buildings adjacent to it.

The location is accessible via Dundas Street and<em> Alexandra\u2019s Walk, <\/em>and from Bathurst there is a small parking lot and entrance by the caf\u00e9. Although it is outdoors, in the winter months it will still be functioning. Awnings have been placed over the stalls to shield people from the elements and solar powered heat lamps are combined with the streetlights that line the market for added comfort. The streetlights were incorporated to provide maximum safety in this narrow space.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"scadding\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4098\/4743761240_5d7d84bb0f_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Rendering of Alexandras Marketplace just south of Scadding Court Community Centre.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Theatre<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"site plan\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4138\/4743124553_7783db2d5e_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Site plan of Alexandra Park Outdoor Theatre, new pedestrian pathways, and greenhouses.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The outdoor theatre is an event space that can serve many different functions. It was designed to facilitate performances, displays and also another gathering space. The walking paths that run through the park have been re-routed to radiate out from the theatre creating a vista to it from Bathurst Street. This was another attempt to create intrigue and draw people into the community. The theatre also provides a venue for events as community members expressed that there was a \u201cneed to have more events to get the community involved\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Greenhouses<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"greenhouses\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4116\/4743124513_bc462cd83b_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Rendering of Greenhouses in Alexandra Park.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The expanded caf\u00e9 at Scadding Court will operate year round and we felt it was important for it to always serve fresh produce grown on site. For the winter months this meant installing greenhouses. To draw more people into Alexandra Park, three greenhouses are to be installed for community residents to grow produce for their businesses and families. The greenhouses will provide opportunities for winter production of horticulture (when outdoor plots freeze) and will facilitate community gatherings on a daily basis and in an informal setting.<\/p>\n<p>The three new structures are simple in design, are proportionate to the size of the park and positioned throughout to create an intimate atmosphere. The two smaller greenhouses have a pathway running in between them, inviting people to venture deeper into the neighborhood and explore the public theatre space and the Alexandra Walk.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alexandra Park Community Centre<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"community centre\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4136\/4743124807_3cb21c4a82_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Map indicating Alexandra Park Community Centre on east side of area, just west of Spadina.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Since the Alexander Park Community Centre plays an important role in the community, many felt that it should be expanded and improved, allowing for more programs to be offered, especially for children and youth. The centre is located in the heart of the Atkinson co-op. Currently the basketball courts surrounding it have 12\u2019 fences that create a barrier between it and the community. Our proposal is to eliminate these fences and recreate a connection between the centre and its surroundings. The main floor has been altered with a glass fa\u00e7ade to create a strong visual connection at all times of day. The centre in the evening and at night will become a landmark in the community and a beacon for safety. The doors have been emphasized to draw people in and there are now double doors connecting the gymnasium to the outdoor space and basketball courts. We hope that by maximizing views in and out of the centre it will encourage a self-monitoring system for safety.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" title=\"community centre\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4098\/4743761536_1e3e7a4d82_b.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em>Rendering of Alexandra Park Community Centre at the main entrance with proposed addition.<br \/>\n<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is part of a series of posts by students in OCAD\u2019s Cities for People summer workshop (click the link to read a bit about what the class is about).
