With this further definition of our proposal, we intent to reaffirm the main aspect of our project: to redefine the limit between the Park and the city. Our belief is that the space of the Park must indeed be regarded as a precious space for the inhabitants, a space that must remain prevented from any urban colonization, whether organized or not. On the other side, we must assess the urgent need for new urban infrastructures and public buildings. Rather than to combine those two requirements in a soft and potentially moving transition, we would like to reaffirm a strong limit. This limit is designed in relation with local singularities, allowing a clear territorial distinction between the city and the Park. Since it would be impossible and probably too authoritarian to build this limit at a single time, we propose to design it in separate stages. The second phase of this competition gives us the possibility to clarify this chronological fragmentation, and specify in detail its first moment. All the phases presented here must be understood as produced by the same process though individually autonomous. PHASE A The first phase of the project is the construction of the Public Service Center. The city extends at the northern edge of the Park in order to integrate a new building for the public administration. This extension taking place in a portion of the former area of the Republican Guard, is limited by a new street that defines a clear border for the Park. The Public Service Center, a building of 12500m² (+400 parking spaces), is defined by its ability to manage a certain ambiguity between its form and its function, between its capacity as a structure and its versatility as a potential of uses. It is conceived as a public monument, as a constructed environment which does not seek to produce a sign in advance but may ultimately become one. In other words, a realistic building detached from any rhetorical effect. Along the new street we create a few facilities by constructing new devices (Chopin Square) and renovating existing buildings (Information booth, House of the Park). These facilities are designed for the citizens in order to humbly signify the end of the city and the beginning of the Park. PHASE B The second phase of the project will be the redefinition of the border between the new Public Service Center area and the dike along the lake. This phase will include an extension of the Park (in the remaining area of the former Republican Guard) and the renovation of the actual sport field. NEXT PHASES The project will continue to extend its logic of redefinition of the border all along the Park by focusing on understanding the specificity of each urban and landscape situation.
