There’s plenty of function to go with the unique form of this park situated on top of the Hudson River. “Green urban space in Manhattan is such an incredibly precious thing that when you have the opportunity to build new park space, it should behave like a Swiss Army knife,” says Mat Cash, partner and group leader at Heatherwick Studios, lead design firm for小岛，类似于巨大的水泥郁金香growing out of the river.

由Diller-Von Furstenberg Family Foundation资助的2.4英亩公园拥有树木，植物和其他由花形盆中生长的绿色植物。还有步行小路，起伏的山丘，开阔的草坪，一个700个座位的圆形剧场，开放式广场，锅下方的平坦码头和其他便利设施。由于团队协调，设计技术的创新以及河流本身作为关键的运输方式，该公园到达了2021年5月的开放。一位最佳项目法官指新利18备用网址出：“西区需要更多的公共空间，这是一个很棒的补充。”

“显而易见的挑战是如何用复杂的几何形状制造，组装和竖起锅中的锅中。”工程师Arup在提交中说。希瑟威克（Heatherwick）使用其伦敦研讨会来模拟和测试每个结构锅之间的斜坡和接头宽度等元素。Cash说使用“开罗五角大楼”设计有助于简化几何形状。

建筑师在脚本中开发了几何形状，这些几何形状被授予工程师以创建结构预制元素，并使用3D模型连接钢元素。数字模型被发送到制造商，以进行计算机数值控制，泡沫工厂的铣削，钢筋弯曲和钢连接板的激光切割。

混凝土预制器米勒集团（Fort Miller Group）建立了一家内部公司，用于用于形成锅的高级大型泡沫铣削。“显然，他们被告知这个概念很疯狂，不适合预制。”斯科特·D·哈里根（Scott D. Harrigan）以前告诉EN新利18备用R. Arup principal David Farnsworth says foam models were folded into correct shapes “basically like origami,” then cast into concrete. The submission says assembled pots were moved to the site via river barge and erected onto each pile using a large barge crane. Piles were driven with a fixed lead system with GPS equipment on leads and using traditional survey methods.

While the 132 pots dominate the park, each of its trees was carefully selected, with the team developing and periodically testing custom planting soil blends. The construction schedule was coordinated around planting seasons to insure the flora thrived. The team worked to achieve ADA compliance on pathways set on extensive geography. Site railings made of red brass with a pre-patina finish were fabricated to align with the curvilinear pathways. All wooden elements, such as black locust stair treads, were harvested and dried to a certain moisture content to minimize warping.

Cash praises the team collaboration, as did the family foundation. “It was extraordinary to work with the exceptional design and engineering teams that made this unique park vision a reality,” the organization said in a statement to ENR. “In endeavoring to pursue outcomes never before achieved, we pushed the boundaries of what is possible for all of us.”
