THE THREE AMIGOS TEAM: 29758 Apartment Tower: 125 meters Offi ce Tower: 89.6 meters Public roof terrace with a restaurant and a cafe Public roof terrace with a restaurant All buildings are placed so they can see both Detroit city as well as Detroit River Public terrace with trees on the roof of the leisure area Looking Up Toward The Buildings The Three Amigos The story behind the three amigos is one of friendship. Even though the buildings con- tain different programs they share many similarities. All are clad in metal sheets in a copper colored RAL which give them similar expression. The balconies and railings are clad in a champagne colored RAL which contrasts with the copper and give the area a sense of dignity. The buildings are all in some way related to the history of Detroit and its sprawling landscape of different skyscrapers - all from the David Stott Building, Ally Detroit Center and Renaissance Center. The buildings share colors and materials, but their expression is meant to express the evolution of the skyscraper, which Detroit is such a good example of. All from the vaulted windows in the hotel, to the austere apartment complex to the more modern tradition of the offi ce building. In this way they share different subjects but are also have their own personality - just like the three amigos. In the center of the complex there is a leisure complex which reaches the intended SQM and there is a common roof terrace that the buildings share which connect them. In the center of the leisure complex there is skylight coming in from the extruded fl oor but there is also a lot of framing around the sides giving the building lights from all directions. Skybridge to the park over the current road There is tress planted along the side of two of the buildings to connect with the park on Hotel Tower: 78.8 meters the other side of the road which can be reached by the skybridge that extrudes over the Public plaza with cafes in the road. On the hotel side there are a paved area with a textured brick that give the plaza sun outside of the hotel a perfect space for cafés and the like, but also letting the restaurant reach out. The offi ce and the hotel also have public restaurants and bars at the tops which gives Isometric Perspective Over The Area 1:500 (A1) the whole city access to the sprawling Detroit city center as well as the Canadian city of Windsor..

Sweet Lorraine in The
By Tom Kaiser It was a gloomy day in Cadillac Square Park as I held a five-foot-tall camera flash to keep it from blowing over in the wind. From the west side of the park, I had the perfect vantage point for the good things happening in downtown Detroit—a city many Americans have left for dead. Within my view were the stunning Book Tower, Cadillac Tower and David Stott Building, neo-classical, neo-gothic and art deco icons from the 1920s towering over an urban plaza. Between the classics were sleek offices for Ernst & Young, busy sidewalks and a brand new commercial tower rising in the heart of the city. Our photo subject, Lorraine Platman of Sweet Lorraine’s Fabulous Mac n’ Cheez, just finished her hair and makeup when an affectionate homeless guy moved in trying to give her a hug. “Watch the hair!” she said with a smile. Seeing the unfolding nonsense, I guided him out of the shot and urged our photographer to move quickly as a pair of security guards closed in to boot us from the park—no commercial photos allowed. This new construction is a big deal in Detroit, with a downtown that saw its office vacancy rate exceed 25 percent during a recession that hit harder here than anyplace else. Things are different now. Amazon, Quicken, Lear Corp. and the “big three” automakers are making huge investments, three new stadiums are under construction, a new train line nears completion, residential developers are running out of warehouses to convert, boutique fashion retailers are popping up and bullish entrepreneurs are hurriedly placing their bets.

[Re] PRESENTING DETROIT the Woodward Avenue Tour
[re] PRESENTING DETROIT__ The Woodward Avenue Tour A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture in the School of Architecture and Interior Design of the College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning by Natasha Reising Bachelor of Science in Architecture University of Cincinnati, 2009 Committee Chairs: Michael McInturf Aarati Kanekar I__ABSTRACT Jerry Herron predicts “Detroit, once a symbol of American competitive vitality, is now a symbol of the first urban domino to fall.” The buildings reveal this uniquely volatile urban narrative via architectural methods such as program, construction technique, and form in contrast between the neighborhoods. Instead of disintegrating into a ruin, Detroit’s collective memory of place will drive the reconstruction of Woodward Avenue as a cultural landmark, defining the city as a tourist hub. Architectural climax defines the narrative of the city, from the industrial building phase, through the infrastructural surge, and to this proposed tourism phase. By divorcing historic form from the lost original use and context, a new story can be inserted within the now malleable framework open for redesign to morph passive artifacts into active monuments (at varying scales). The collective memory is revealed and exaggerated along Woodward Avenue, the central spine of the city both physically (in plan and section) and culturally. The methodology of temporal collage combines this collective memory with progression of change and future projection to design architectural interjections along the Woodward Avenue Tour at thresholds between distinct experiential segments of the 27-mile artery.
