<strong>An</strong> <strong>Adaptive</strong> <strong>Paradigm</strong>:<br />

Coupling water & waste flows with ecological development<br />

to enhance environmental quality, increase biodiversity,<br />

ecological productivity, and protect human health<br />

Water and<br />

nutrient flow<br />

A new framework for urban development:<br />

Layering biogeochemical networks onto city structure


Every Structure We Build Embodies<br />

<strong>An</strong> Hypothesis on Future Conditions of the City:<br />

Economics; Energy; Ecology<br />

Every Structure We Build is<br />

A Bet on Future Returns on Investment<br />

A Wager Against Future Damage<br />

& Most Likely, Both

FIRST LEVEL OUT AT SEA<br />

THREE STRATEGIES


FIRST LEVEL OUT AT SEA<br />

STRATEGY 1<br />

WINDMILLS

STRATEGY 2<br />

TIDAL/CURRENT GENERATORS


FIRST LEVEL OUT AT SEA<br />

STRATEGY 3<br />

SEA FARMS


SECOND LEVEL SHORELINE<br />

TWO STRATEGIES


SECOND LEVEL SHORELINE<br />

STRATEGY 1<br />

MUSSELS & SEAWEED PILINGS<br />

Infrastructure that produced 15lbs per linear foot per year &<br />

filters 2,000 gallons of water per day


SECOND LEVEL SHORELINE<br />

MUSSELS & SEAWEED PILINGS<br />

Infrastructure that produced 15lbs per linear foot<br />

per year & filters 2,000 gallons of water per day


STRATEGY 1<br />

SECOND LEVEL SHORELINE<br />

OYSTER REEF SEED PODS<br />

Made from recycled<br />

glass aggregate on<br />

reinforcement bar,<br />

these forms offer a<br />

cost-effective method<br />

for producing habitat<br />

for suspension<br />

feeders, seaweeds,<br />

and other attached<br />

organisms


SECOND LEVEL SHORELINE<br />

STRATEGY 2<br />

THIRD LEVEL COASTLINE<br />

TWO STRATEGIES


THIRD LEVEL COASTLINE<br />

STRATEGY 1<br />

STRATEGY 2<br />

SEAWALLS & FLOOD GATES


THIRD LEVEL COASTLINE<br />

STRATEGY 2<br />

BUILDING GATE


THIRD LEVEL COASTLINE<br />

STRATEGY 2<br />

BUILDING GATE<br />

Flooding Hurricane Sandy<br />

Water Depth 6 to 8 feet<br />

Gate / Wall<br />

Wetland + Green Wall<br />

Water treatment + Air remediation<br />

• Runoff into the Bronx River has been greatly diminished or<br />

eliminated with half a million to a million gallons of below grade<br />

Industrial Wasteland?<br />

Location of Sims Construction<br />

Site<br />

• With all runoff directed into the soil column, metals will be<br />

sequestered and hydrocarbons, - broken down, held in place by<br />

deep humic soils and carbon compounds degraded by root-zone<br />

microbes


• Below grade storage for quarter million gallons of water is<br />

Water Source: On-site Water Storage and Ecological Filtration<br />

• Yellow arrows show flow from 6 acre concrete pad into the<br />

infiltration galleries formed by the native plants communities in<br />

rich, humic soils


Habitat Creation from Stormwater Flow<br />

• Plants growing on waste glass, composted leaves, Christmas Trees and<br />

Pumpkins<br />

• A million tons of organic waste could remediate about a half square mile of<br />

brownfields<br />

• A million tons of waste glass (a years worth) could create about 20 linear<br />

miles of evaporative green wall or sculptural elements to filter and evaporate<br />

water in key areas near Metropolitan Transit Authority source waters from<br />

subways and other facilities
