chosen site

.
I have chosen to situate my art gallery in the boundaries of Site 1. Below is the existing building's King Street facade. The width of the lot is a little less than 11 metres, and the proposal is to be a maximum of 30 metres in length.

The other sites had their benefits, but I was instantly drawn to Site 1. It is slender, and so presents a challenge, but its length and position provides great opportunities. A proposal on this site could associate strongly with the urban infrastructure, namely King Street or the open carpark at its side (in blue, below), or the park at the rear (in green) - or all of these.
