View 2 - The entrance of the existing sit e at the end of Trent Lane remains a street,howevere pedistrian only, with the exception of deliveries.

View 3 - Weather permiting. the ground floor food market in the Existing Bulding 2flows out onto the pedistrain street. Food sold here is grown on site and off site.

View 4 - The neighbourhood is tightly nit creating a togtherness and sparking the inter-action between residents.

View 5 - in addition to the vertical glasshouses, residents have the oppurtunity to tend

to their own allotments, grows herbs and and vegetables.

View 6 - The old Victorian residences how been convertered for a creche and earlyschooling, the back of which provides secure external play space.

View 7 - The basin is an excellent oppurtunity to install a fish farm. The UK is fortunatewith its variety of edible fresh water fish, many of which can be f armed in the basin.

Rejuvenating the Existing

The existing buildings serve as a reminder of Nottinghams lofty past as a city that makes. A return of sorts, to an integrated high-end micro manufacturing hub, withinour broader, Trent river master plan, with community led goals, that will not only rejuvenate the area as a place that makes but also provide great opportunities in energy

and waste potential. A new lease of life can provide heating, energy, profit and a sense of pride to the community. Building 1 becomes a brewery with attractive riversidebar and restaurant drawing surrounding custom and interest while building 2 is used as a fresh food market for on-site fruit, vegetables and fish utilising the River Trentsabundant fish supplies(over 35 species) which can be farmed in the Basin, and making use of the extensive land available for urban farming. Post-industrial mixed usecan benefit from a more complex arrangement and inter relationship between residential and industry. The middle floors are set free to become an urban park with ample

room for community led development. The top floors provide a gym and wellness facility as well as administration for the fish and food market.

The combination of small scale manufacturing within a community is the paradigm shift needed to re-think a sustainable post-industrial regeneration strategy. Unlike othermixed-use developments a more complex and considered approach can give a new impulse to an urban area while maintaining the look and feel of a neighbourhood

context. This is a t emplate that can can work in other European cities. There is a richness in neighbourhood/ city specific industry and manufacturing on a scale thatcomplements an urban community in terms of both an architectural language and sustainable design principles while acknowledging the materiality of our post-industrialurban regeneration opportunities. As a strategy it demands a balance between the needs/hopes of a community and the economic/ energy limitations we find ourselvesin. It does not just look at the immediate gains. It is a strategy with long term c ommunity in mind, less reliant on the unpredictable nature of our global world. Safe in itsability to provide and sustain itself.
