"Less is best, but less concrete is critical". As an #open #space and #recreation #planner I often find that the two disciplines are in conflict with each other. Protecting the space is difficult when you also need to plan for the activities that we do on the space. This project came into my feed today on LI, and it triggered that conflict. This new facility has a #BMX track, #skatepark and #basketball #court, and the carpark to service them. All are youth based spaces. I could not support them more. But the conflict comes from having poured so much concrete in what is a critical park with its ecosystem. All this concrete will have a significant impact not just on the park, the fauna that live in the park, but even more significant the creek that flows past the park. In our new #OSRS one of our overarching themes is "Less is best". This prompts us to think about each and every asset that we plan to put in to a park, and if we can avoid building it we do, because less is best. When it comes to hardstanding infrastructure councils need to stop defaulting to putting them in the easy option land, parks and reserves. To be brutally honest, hardstanding assets should go on councils sh.t land, where there is very little community or environmental value. The example that I have picked looks good in the park, but it is an illusion. It is a waste of this critical park. Dan Ferguson John Tower Thomas Astell-Burt

107m worth of awesomeness. Last April, the final product was unveiled: təməsew̓txʷ (pronounced Thomas-out) Aquatic and Community Centre, a 115,000-square-foot facility home to an Olympic-sized lap pool, a lazy river, a leisure pool, fitness rooms, childcare facilities and a soaring, 30-foot lobby that doubles as an admission-free hangout space for visitors. With a price tag of $107 million, it’s the city’s most expensive capital project to date. təməsew̓txʷ is also the first aquatic centre in the country to earn a zero-carbon design designation. Unlike other public pools, which can be notorious greenhouse-gas emitters and typically rely on gas boilers to heat water, təməsew̓txʷ runs partially on solar panels. Above the lap pool, a wooden, zig-zagging sawtooth roof lets in plenty of indirect daylight, preventing a glare from bouncing off the water. In fact, the entire facility is extremely wood-heavy, from its hulking cross-laminated timber ceiling (which can tolerate lots of humidity and unintentionally resembles a gym floor) to its central spiralling, maple-wrapped staircase.
