New visions for Green Square Plaza

悉尼将在Stewart Hollenstein和Colin Stewart Architects设计的 Green Square中打造一个开放式的露天广场。

新的户外空间将建于悉尼绿色广场中，位于一个地下图书馆之上，也由Stewart Hollenstein和 Colin Stewart Architects设计，这一方案曾在2013年国际设计竞赛中获奖。

场地中设置了一个玻璃的入口大厅，俯瞰广场景色的登高塔，四周围绕着郁郁葱葱的树木。

The City of Sydney has revealed new visions for an open-air plaza at Green Square designed by Stewart Hollenstein and Colin Stewart Architects.
The plaza will be a new outdoor event space in the Green Square Town Centre, and will sit atop a mostly underground library, which is also designed by Stewart Hollenstein and Colin Stewart Architects. The practices won an international design competition for the projects in 2013.
The plaza design features a glazed entry pavilion, a tower with views of the plaza and a ring of trees, which will frame the space.

Stewart Hollenstein设计工作室的负责人Matthias Hollenstein 表示：“图书馆和广场项目已经被搁置了一段时间，本次设计中的城市空间错综复杂，场地跨越了一个斜坡，因此这里将起到连接的过渡作用，将周边的零售店与横穿场地的一侧整合起来，激发场所活力。”

拟建的露天广场可以用来举办重大的庆祝活动，如除夕，澳洲国庆日和农历新年，可以同时容纳4,000余人进行狂欢。

这里也可以用作小型活动的户外场地，如现场音乐会、时装表演、艺术展览、视频放映以及国际体育项目广播等。

Hollenstein表示：“露天广场的规模可以承载像庆祝农历新年这样的大型活动，同时也能够创造出宜人的亲密尺度，满足当地居民和游客的日常需求，”

“The current design for the library and plaza has stayed true to the ambitions of the competition design,” said Matthias Hollenstein, director of Stewart Hollenstein.
“The plaza design has evolved in a very intricate way. It spans a sloping site, yet has been designed to allow for continuous activation along its retail edges and across its width.”
The proposed event space will host major celebrations such as New Year’s Eve, Australia Day and the Lunar New Year. The space will have capacity for up to 4,000 revellers.
It will also be an outdoor venue for smaller events such as live music, fashion shows, art exhibitions and video screenings and international sports broadcasts.
“[The plaza’s] scale allows for the capacity required for larger scale events, such as Chinese New Year, while its level of intimacy caters to the everyday activities of local residents and visitors,” Hollenstein explained.

悉尼市长Clover Moore表示，绿色广场“预计在2030年，使用人数将超过7,500…我们需要适应这样的增长，并提供高品质的社区服务设施和开放空间，保证居民和游客的活动需要。”

“新建广场将会成为该地区的活动中心，成为社区中受欢迎的聚会场所，举行各种规模的文化和节庆活动。

悉尼市将在未来几周内正式申报建设广场项目，目前的新图书馆正在建设中，如果广场项目获得审批，将有望在2018年初同时对外开放。

在绿色广场的周边，由Peter Stutchbury Architecture设计的创意中心于本周开始施工，这里原是South Sydney Hospital的护士宿舍。

Matthias Hollenstein &Chris McBride与悉尼市高级设计经理（建筑）将在4月30日星期六就绿色广场图书馆和萨里山图书馆项目进行会谈。

Clover Moore, City of Sydney Lord Mayor, said the Green Square town centre would have “an expected population of more than 7,500 people by 2030 … We need to match this growth with high-quality community facilities and open spaces that local residents and visitors can enjoy.
“This new plaza will become the heart of the area and provide a welcoming place for the community to come together for cultural events and celebrations both large and small.”
The City of Sydney expects to lodge a development application for the plaza in the coming weeks. Construction on the library has already begun. If approved, the plaza is scheduled to open, with the library, in early 2018.
Elsewhere in the Green Square precinct, construction began this week on the Peter Stutchbury Architecture-designed creative hub, which will be housed in the former nurses quarters of the South Sydney Hospital.
Matthias Hollenstein and Chris McBride, City of Sydney’s senior design manager (architecture) will present a free talk on the proposed Green Square Library and Plaza at Surry Hills Library on Saturday 30 April.
