The site acquired by the city is 14 acres of industrial rail corridor where nothing is developing or growing except for the weeds. The proposal for a new transportation terminal on such a site led to a hyper-real investigation of architecture among the blooming ruins typical of the contemporary city. Avoiding the assertion of form , rather intervening provisionally to provide a new public surface is presented. The architecture is modest in effort to unearth new territory in the construction of the city.
