I am working individually...
Planning:
In 20 years I believe downtown will look like....
- some glass towers with interesting architecture (tilted, spiraling or adjoined geometric shapes)
- the remnants of older buildings still in the surroundings
- very small amounts of greenspace
- no more visible parkades/ less need for parking in general (new means of transportation that wouldn't require anyone to own a car)
- parcades for self driving cars or vehicles of service would be underground
- architecture to travel under or above water
- solar power/ new and innovative energy sources

I chose all of these building and landscape because thay all have a geometric shape ,spiral or are somewhat unusual.
For my park, I would like to create a cube like building. Within this building there would be a garden and market square with little shops. The Parking garage is a multi level building that goes under ground. There would be elevators that connect the parkade to both of the skyscrapers beneath the ground. For the toposurface I will make a green space and a pond encircled by concrete path ways and roads. These paths are used for transportaion.
This is my design sketch of my downtown city block. Within this drawing I have included my skyscraper, a park with a pond, and underground parking
