猎人角图书馆美国纽约市皇后区

Hunters Point Library Queens,NY,USA

该项目地处纽约东河岸的核心位置,以栋栋拔地而起的高楼为背景。占地22,000平方英尺(约为2,044平方米),用作纽约皇后区的公共图书馆。图书馆位于该区的猎人角,在充当公共建筑的同时,还可作为一个市民公园,旨在为长岛的社区居民提供一处沿河的公共休闲空间。猎人角社区图书馆的落成,旨在反抗并回应那些高端住宅内的公共图书馆和社交空间。在32,000平方英尺(约2,973平方米)的建设用地上,建筑只占用了极小的一部分面积,并尽可能地将剩余的绿地空间还给社区使用,构建一个充满活力的河滨市民公园。

Located on a prominent site along the East River,against the backdrop of rapidly built skyscraper condominiums,the 22,000 square foot Queens Public Library at Hunters Point stands as a public building and public park,bringing community-devoted space to the Long Island City waterfront.Resisting recent trends of incorporating public libraries and much-needed social space within high-end residential towers,the Hunters Point Library stands independently,rising with a minimal footprint on its 32,000 square foot site to offer maximum surrounding green space to the local community and becoming an integrated part of the vibrant public park that lines the river’s edge.
