LOCAL CASE STUDY:-

SACUUR APARTMENT
Location

 The apartment i choose is found around kazanchis behind Radisson blu hotel. It is about 150 meters inland from the main road.

Orientation

 The apartment was done by Alsam PLC. It is G+9 mixed use apartment.

 There is no that much tree plantation in the area but the rare trees have great role on cooling the site.

 Because the site is found in a city center place there is sound disturbance existing on day and night time.

Entrance, foyer and circulation

 The entrance is not that much noticeable. But there is a 2m walking space inside the entrance after that there are stairs.

 There is medium scaled foyer present through the front door of each house in the building. According to our data the foyer is about 3 to 5 meters wide.

 The circulation system in the building is by using stairs.

 There is sufficient circulation system inside the house. Because of the good zoning in the house the circulation way is so simple.

View, light, ventilation

 Because the area we chose is urban, the view from the apartment gives an artificial pleasure.

 There is natural light entering the house.

 The bed rooms and the living room is located in east, this gives the house natural light and modest natural heat which is good for health.

 As we witnessed there is no problem caused by wind. Modest wind mostly comes from the east direction. So in order to get good ventilation windows are located in the
east and south east direction.

 Private areas are found beside the bed room.

Port Covington — Baltimore, Maryland

 Cost: $5.5 billion

ARCHITECT: Torti Gallas and Partners

COMPLETION: December 2022

Port Covington E1 is a 162-unit,

Developer: Weller Development

Components of this massive development , to be anchored by Under Armour’s headquarters, include:

 250-unit residential building with ground-floor retail.

 180,000 square feet of office space.

 An approximately 156,000-square-foot hotel.

 42,000 square feet of retail space.

 13,000 square feet of market space.

Weller Development’s request for proposals for an architect for the residential piece and general contractor for the remainder of the project were due earlier
this year. Development of the 260-acre site is still in the permit phase and developers must complete water, sewer and road infrastructure before construction
can begin.
 Bonds, supported by future incremental tax revenues the development will generate, will help pay for the estimated $1.4 billion worth of infrastructure
upgrades. When construction begins, likely in 2020, it could generate up to $9.4 billion in construction-related economic activity and create 54,000 related
jobs throughout its estimated 25-year time table

Mixed-use apartment community comprised of commercial, residential, and retail space and including a 979-space precast parking structure with podium-style
wood framing on two sides.

The project is part of the first phase of Baltimore's Port Covington master development, one of the largest urban revitalization projects in the nation. Located on
the Patapsco River opposite Baltimore's Inner Harbor, Port Covington requires heavy coordination among CBG and several other general contractors working
simultaneously on adjacent parcels.

Port Covington is packed with unique amenities across three levels, including
  a steam room,
 meditation lounge,
 sauna,
 treatment room,
 game room, and
 Third-floor terrace with a fire pit and barbecue area.

Urban development has the potential to change the landscape of cities; when done with forethought, it can stimulate economic and cultural growth for
surrounding communities as well. Along a 235-acre swath of land in South Baltimore,

As one of the largest urban revitalization projects underway in the U.S., Port Covington is approved, by right, to include up to 18 million square feet of new,
mixed-use development.

Its scope, which also includes 40 acres of parks and green space, will create economic opportunity for residents throughout the region.

A ‘Double Bottom-Line’ Approach

BENEFIT OF THE DESIGN

Real estate development projects — especially of the scale and scope of Port Covington — present an opportunity to elevate the surrounding neighborhoods and,
in this case, improve the lives of Baltimore City residents in general. By design, in the case of Port Covington, when the project does well, so does the
community — directly and proportionally. To accomplish this, the developers of Port Covington entered into a citywide Community Benefits Agreement and
Memorandum of Understanding, including more than $100 million in commitments, making it the largest city-wide benefits package negotiated in Baltimore’s
history.

The Sagamore Spirit Distillery will face the courtyard of the planned Rye Street Market at Baltimore’s Port Covington development.

PROGRAM INCLUDED
In May 2019, the team broke ground on approximately 3 million square feet of waterfront development, including apartments, offices, hospitality, retail,
restaurants, and public parks and piers.

Multimodal Connections

Port Covington’s waterfront location is one of its greatest assets. Situated on the Middle Branch of the Patapsco River less than two miles south of Baltimore’s
Inner Harbor, the 235-acre site provides opportunity for more than 2.5 miles of restored waterfront.

The neighborhood is highly accessible, with public transit onsite and light rail and regional MARC train access within a mile.

With direct ramps on and off Interstate 95, the planned enhancements under the I-95 Access Improvement Project, and several street connections to the
neighborhoods to the north and south, it is one of the few sites in the mid-Atlantic region with this level of vehicular access. The development plan includes
additions to make the site even more connected through multimodal improvements including bike, water taxi, extension of the free Charm City Circulator bus
route, and a contemplated light rail WAY.
