纽约800万居民之中有超过40万的居民生活在日益恶化的贫困公共住房社区中。其中

超过2500栋公共住房建筑建于上个世纪40年代至60年代，可谓年久失修。这些楼宇算

是柯布西耶为城市贫困情况所做的一个解题，不过现在看来已经发展得相当恶化。

建立一个具有凝聚力的社区需要：健康，繁荣，家庭。相应的，建筑师规划了地面的
农场，新增高科技制造企业和学校和一个全新的住宅建筑系列。地面农场将那些华而
不实的草坪转换成为牧场和农田，为人们提供所缺乏的新鲜蔬菜水果和食物。高科技
企业和职业学校能够给现有住区带来刺激，居民也能在学校就读后出来为企业工作。
新的住宅建筑系列位于最顶处，当他们建成后，现有的住宅建筑将被转换成为公共休
闲空间。这个设计尽可能去实现社会发展的可持续性。

希望通过建筑的发展来刺激经济，教育以及最重要的社区自豪感，成为社区和政府对

话的催化剂。

TENACITY，目标是用设计激发社会活力。
TENACITY is an architectural research proposal seeking to revitalize long neglected
and socially disadvantaged Public Housing communities in New York City. Of New York
City's 8 million residents, there are over 400,000 residents currently living in poverty
and deteriorating conditions within New York City's public housing system. Of the over
2,500 buildings in the city's public housing stock, most were built during the late 1940s
until the mid 1960s; all remain today in various states of disrepair and neglect. Their
designs reflected the popular motif of city planning of the day, that of the "Towers in the
Park". Envisioned by architects such as Le Corbusier as the answer to urban poverty, it

through architectural development, economic stimulus, education, and most importantly
- community pride.  The goal for this project is to be a catalyst for dialogue, spurring
community and governmental action.
