Most esteemed critics: Over the course of the day, we'll be breaking the SWL 337 proposals down for you one by one. Vote to follow? You bet. Democracy Now, people.

Team: Build Inc., Cherokee Investment Partner, and UrbanGreen Devco LLC.

Topography: Seawall Lot 337 sits at a point of colliding grids; axes extend to subdivide rectilinear parcel into series of diverse, angled parcels. Small lanes, byways, and passages allow for ease of pedestrian use and maximizing building and water access, natural light.

Buildings: Variously sized parcels yield diversity in building sizes, types Attention to silhouette; tall, differentiated towers at center of site, surrounded by spiral of different buildings at varied heights. 50,000 square feet of contemporary art space, 70,000 square feet of artist studios, workshops, etc. Covered open market between two piers; enclosed entrance to civic space with restos/retail.
