The City of Philadelphia Parks & Recreation Department (PPR) currently oversees and operates approximately 160 recreation centers and facilities in the city of Philadelphia. Most of these recreation centers and facilities need repairs and modernization, and on-going maintenance. PPR is working with other departments and partners to make the recreation centers more energy efficient, while providing new programming and activities.
DVGBC has asked Parks & Recreation to identify four sites that meet the following criteria:
• in need of repair/site improvement
• easily accessible via mass-transit
• opportunities for energy efficiency
The challenge this year for the DVGBC Sustainable Design Competition is to re-imagine an existing urban recreation center. Starting with an existing site, teams are asked to use adaptive reuse strategies and analysis to design their vision of what a recreation center can be for the community. Consider emphasizing one of three areas that will be strongly considered during judging:
• Energy efficiency and conservation efforts
• Stormwater management on the site and other sustainable landscaping features
• Community outreach and education programs integrating the site specific connection
Eligibility
The Design Competition is open to all college and university level students as well as emerging professionals (5 years or less of professional design experience, regardless of age). Students and emerging professionals shall be judged and recognized in separate categories. Participants must identify themselves as either a student or young professional.
Awards
A diverse panel of judges will be assembled to select both a student and emerging professional winner based on the evaluation criteria. Honorable Mention prizes will also be included. Prizes will be awarded independently for student and emerging professional entrants as such:
• Students
◦ First Prize: $1500 cash
◦ Second Prize: $750 cash
◦ Honorary Mention: $250 cash
• Emerging Professionals
◦ First Prize: $1500 cash
