PENNEY BUILDING FOX THEA TRE BROWN MACKIE COLLEGE AGGREGATE BLOCK I BAST. WEST GA TBW A YS I MIDLAND HOTEL THE PLOW WORKS RI VER DISTRICT I I I I I YOLUMIi TWO introduction I Gates and Ways is a two volume report that describes and illustrates ideas for continuing Salina's Downtown revitalization with private development. The report culminates a ten-week studio project for fourth-year architecture students at Kansas State University. I Volume Two presents the fourteen individual designs developed by the students. These designs are intended to illustrate the potential for that specific project, and design principles that could be used in Salina for real projects in the future of similar scope and character. The range of projects includes simple facade remodelings, aimed at restoring (he integrity of the building, to wholly speculative projects for introducing new uses and activities to the Downtown. I I I I I PATRIC[ SCHAUB I I I I SUR TON"S AND LOW"S Shelton's and Low's Drug Store offer an interesting possibility for exploring second-story use. The programmatic requirements for this illustrative design are based on ideas from the buildings' owner: the ground floor of Low's Drug Store is restored to its former grandeur and could become a street landmark, and Shelton's is an informal bar and griH. Two independent service businesses occupy the second-story space - - an office for a psychologist and her associates and another professional office, as yet to be determined. The development of the second-story space revolves around several key ideas. First, vertical circulation is integrated in a number of places for access and fire safety. This circulation does not change the character of the facades or hinder the spaces below. Second, the businesses have private waitmg areas. but share a common entry and reception area. ThIrd, natural light is introduced into these deep, narrow spaces 10 make them more inviting. mæ ~ - - - - - 8. ~ (§ JØ2 ~ d 0 ~ ~6 G c:þ c:=:::3 ~ ~ 0 - - - I I I I I 1, Entry 2. Reception 3.

These second-story spaces offer a viable opportunity for introducing a greater variety of uses into the Downtown core. Four conceptual layouts have been illustrated combining living and work spaces. These schemes illustrate methods of dealing with the long narrow space, few existing windows, and lack of interior 1ightinK. one scheme is developed in detail for the adaptive reuse of Don Loader Interiors. .¡¡ J \!. \!.

Penney store on Santa Fe A venue illustrate how a renovation of a large downtown building can increase both commercial and social activity in the Downtown. The large spatial volume and the centrally organized, symmetrical plan of the existing building lend themselves to the creation of a focal space that is a winter garden, and a variety of smaJl "incubator" shops. The building's location next to the major covered crosswalk gives the project the potential for reinforcing the center of the Downtown. The adjacency to Brown Mackie College suggests commerciaJ services focused on the student market.

SWHNBY YICBABL CAITO ~ THE PLOW WORIS As part of the effort to revitalize Salina's Downtown, the restoration proposal for The Plow Worts, located at Fifth and Iron, illustrates how to add a new dimension to Salina's night1ife. The project aeates an atmosphere that should appeal to aU of the senses in a way reminiscent of the early European/ American settlement of Salina. The selected uses -- a retail dell, a bar, and a restaurant -- are feasible and reflect the robust imaae of The Plow Worts. These uses would extend business hours from the afternoon into the late evening. The development or the exterior space complements the inside activities and also adds to the street life. -~--- " / / / - / / - I , , I , - ,~ ,'I .

The goal of this project is to aeate a pleasant outdoor space as an eJtension of the market area, and to aeate a memorable access point to the river linkage between this node and the Bicentennial Center. The proposal includes a parallel path to the river's edge and the articulation of various precincts with lighting, bollards, paving patterns, and vegetation.

The introduction of home arown and individually aafted goods and aervices can be an asset to this area. The atmosphere should be friendly and neighborly u each person helping to provide viable goods for the community. Public utilities should be left intact. and a miIture of people and the automobile should occur. thus providing the highest level and miIture of activity possible. With the introduction of new uses and activities. this area in conjunction with the river front could become a feasible node in Salina's commercial community.

The site is bounded by the Smoky Hill River to the north and east, Walnut Street to the south, and Fourth Street to the west. Located on the periphery of the Downtown, this area is prime for the introduction of alternative housing types. To ensure the success of Salina's Downtown redevelopment and the river front market district proposal, there must be enough people to support the growth. Therefore, these schemes provide a greater population density that would serve as an anchor for existing developments and a catalyst for new ones. The need to preserve and/or enhance the Smoky Hill River as an identifiable natural edge within its built context has been recognized. ~ ð~, Q>. ... ~QIII~ - - - - I I I I I I I on ACOIiD HOUSING This scheme is based on the area's elisting contelt: single- family housing on small lots, often with detached garages or out-buildings.
