架构师提供的文本描述。文明和城市的历史与水的存在有着内在的联系。古代文明是在肥沃的河谷中成长起来的，城市的发展取决于饮用水和公共卫生设施的可得性。用于控制和分配城市环境中的水的基础设施有着悠久而杰出的建筑历史。

Text description provided by the architects. The history of civilisations and cities are intrinsically tied to the presence of water.  Ancient civilisations grew up in fertile river valleys and the development of cities depended on the ready availability of water for both potable use and public sanitation.  The infrastructure used to control and distribute water in the urban environment has a long and distinguished architectural history.

 Floor Plan

拉塞尔水厂大楼位于圣劳伦斯河的入口处，蒙特利尔渡槽是该市饮用水的源头。该项目坐落在一个宽阔的海滨公园，包括三座建筑-一座历史悠久的西班牙殖民泵房，一座建于1975年的这座建筑，以及一座新的加装了空气过滤装置的建筑。该项目采用综合景观战略，在这些完全不同的组成部分之间建立联系，使滨水公园成为一个全面的整体。

The Lasalle Waterworks Building is located on the banks of the Saint Lawrence River at the entrance of the Montreal Aqueduct, the source of the city’s drinking water. Sited in a broad waterfront park, the project includes three structures – a historic Spanish Colonial pump-house dating from 1923, a 1975 addition to this structure, and a new addition housing an air-filtering device. Using an integrated landscape strategy to create links between these disparate components, the project engages the waterfront park as a comprehensive whole.

由挖掘材料组成的椭圆形护堤被叠加在这三座建筑周围，为该方案创造了一个概念上的摇篮。二次椭圆吊舱组织了现有的景观特征，包括两片成熟的树木。新增加的护堤位于护堤中心，也呈椭圆形-在这种情况下，这个椭圆是一个挤压椭圆，可以在一个绿色屋顶下开发新方案。

An elliptical berm composed of excavation material is superimposed around all three structures to create a conceptual cradle for the scheme.  Secondary elliptical pods organise existing landscape features including two groves of mature trees.  The new addition, located at the center of the berm, also assumes an elliptical form – in this case an extruded ellipse that permits the development of the new program beneath a green roof.

前两座建筑的修复和翻新巩固了西班牙殖民地泵房的材料调色板-白色灰泥和赤塔屋顶-以及新加物的挤压椭圆，即织构红砖，在1923年结构的兵马俑屋顶上。

The restoration and renovation of the first two structures consolidates the material palette of the Spanish Colonial pump house – white stucco and terra-cotta roofs – and the extruded ellipse of the new addition, in textured red brick, picks up on the terracotta roof of the 1923 structure.

该项目强调景观是一种统一的媒介，具有重要的技术层面，该项目是LEED认证的倡议，利用当地植物、地表水的自然收集和处理以及各种绿色能源战略，包括地热采暖和光伏太阳能集热器。该项目是魁北克建筑师协会2013年颁发的优秀奖决赛。

The project’s emphasis on the landscape as a unifying medium has important technical dimensions.  The project is a LEED certified initiative that uses indigenous plants, natural collection and treatment of surface water and various green energy strategies including geothermal heating and photovoltaic solar collectors. The project was a finalist for an Award of excellence from the Order of Architects of Quebec in 2013.
