架构师提供的文本描述。米勒公园最初开发于20世纪70年代,占地两英亩,位于市中心,靠近所罗门大厦,距离市政厅和查塔努加公共图书馆只有一个街区。作为查塔努加创新区的中心,设计上的挑战是彻底改造这个空间,因为它的沉陷的广场造成了与城市脱节的障碍和感觉。斯帕克曼·莫索普·迈克尔斯(Spackman Mossop Michaels)的校长韦斯·迈克尔斯(Wes Michaels)说,“通过提升下沉的广场,并把整个公园提升到街道的水平,我们让公园变得更容易接近,更有吸引力
Text description provided by the architects. Originally developed in the 1970s, Miller Park spans two acres and is located in the center of the city, next to the Solomon building and one block from City Hall and the Chattanooga Public Library. As the heart of Chattanooga’s Innovation District, the design challenge was to completely overhaul the space because its sunken plaza created a barrier and sense of disconnection from the city. “By elevating the sunken plaza and bringing the entire park up to street level, we have made the park both more accessible and more inviting,” said Wes Michaels, Principal of Spackman Mossop Michaels.

为了打破米勒公园与街对面现有的米勒广场之间的隔阂,SMM/EDR采用了“共享街道”的方式,重新配置了Martin Luther King大道,将两个公共空间连接为一个统一的公民空间。这包括减少行车线,取消传统的限制,使道路和人行道达到相同的水平,以及种植一条带有乡土树木的平坦的中间地带,以减缓交通速度,并鼓励整个公园内更多的行人活动。
To break down the barriers between Miller Park and the existing Miller Plaza across the street, SMM/EDR applied a “shared street” approach and reconfigured Martin Luther King Boulevard, connecting the two public spaces as one unified civic space. This involved reducing traffic lanes, removing traditional curbs to bring the road and sidewalk to the same level, and planting a flush median strip with native trees to slow down traffic and encourage more pedestrian activity across the entire park.

一个铺路模式标志着公园和道路之间的过渡,这一设计继续沿着用于社交聚会的巨大楼梯进行。这些步骤在公园的设计中起着主导作用,很容易转变成日常使用的座位和特殊的活动。
A paving pattern marks the transition between the park and the roadway, with this design continuing along the monumental stairs intended for social gatherings. These steps play a leading role in the design of the park, and easily transform into seating for everyday use and special events.

米勒公园提供了巨大的生态效益,在这个小的地点,在一个密集的城市地区。SMM的所有项目都是在考虑到社会、财政和生态对直接社区的影响的情况下设计的。可持续和长期的解决方案,如雨水管理和战略定位的土壤细胞,构成绿色基础设施,并在米勒公园的地下设计中发挥关键作用。种植了75多棵新树,全部原产于该地区。安装了一个膨胀的结构性土壤单元系统,以便使树根长得很大和更宽,而不会破坏路面,并清除雨水造成的污染。这些土壤细胞为每棵树提供了大量的土壤,创造了一个理想的环境,一个长期的城市森林的大树冠树木。除了培育本地树木和植物外,土壤细胞还提供出色的雨水管理,减少了进入合并下水道溢流系统的水量。
Miller Park provides immense ecological benefits on this small site in a dense urban area. All of SMM’s projects are designed with consideration for the social, financial and ecological impact on the immediate community. Sustainable and long-term solutions such as stormwater management and strategically positioned soil cells make up the green infrastructure and play a key role in the subterranean design of Miller Park. More than 75 new trees, all native to the region, were planted. An expansive structural soil cell system was installed in order to allow the tree roots to grow large and wide without disrupting the pavement, as well as cleaning pollution from rainwater. These soil cells provide each tree with a large volume of soil, creating an ideal environment for a long-term urban forest of grand canopy trees. In addition to nurturing the native trees and plants, the soil cells provide excellent stormwater management that reduces the amount of water that enters the combined sewer overflow systems.

在城市中心作为一个绿色绿洲,公园也被设计来容纳文化活动和技术先进的产品。整个公园都有免费的高速无线网络,由互联网电缆和电力组成的地下系统可以支持高科技的数字艺术装置、表演和户外电影放映。由EDR设计的最先进的展馆,加上开阔的草坪,是举办活动的理想场所.展馆上有一个数码投影仪,可以进行电影放映和现场表演。
While serving as a green oasis in the city center, the park is also designed to accommodate cultural events and technologically-advanced productions. Free high-speed wifi is available throughout the park, and an underground system of internet cables and electricity can support high-tech digital art installations, performances and outdoor movie screenings. The state-of- the-art pavilion designed by EDR, along with the open lawn, serve as an ideal space for events. A digital projector on the Pavilion allows for movie screenings and live performances.

SMM/EDR采取步骤让社区参与设计过程。在6个月内,他们在整个城市举行了公开会议,建立了一个在线平台,用于收集社区的投入,并在现有的公园和环境中进行了亲自调查,以将各种声音带到桌子上。这种密集的社区参与帮助了开放的灵活设计,展示了新的米勒公园的特点。
SMM/EDR took steps to involve the community in the design process. Over the course of six months, they held public meetings throughout the city, set up an online platform for collecting the community’s input, and conducted in-person surveys in the existing park and surroundings to bring a variety of voices to the table. This intensive community engagement helped inform the open flexible design that characterizes the new Miller Park.
