The initial impetus for this project was to use an architectural setting to explore the concept of mobility. It positions mobility not only in terms of efficiency and economic structures however, but also in terms of how accessible it is to people and how impactful it is on the communities that it is nested within. It attempts to view mobility not in terms of moving the largest number of possible people and doing so in a way that is segregated from its context, but also in terms of who can access the transit infrastructure that we build, and how it directly relates to the people that will be interacting with in on a daily basis. Through contextual insight, the programming of the project, and the physical design of the sight, it looks to enhance the spatial quality of the surrounding community, and serve needs beyond transit and commerce, hoping to alter the view of the transit station from a way point for people outside of the community, to a destination serving the residents within it.
