Also the entire site now sits on a unifiedplinth relative to the road level,whichprevents loss of visual connectivity

presently NSP sits as an isolated super block,cut offfrom its immediate context,comprising of residentialand institutional areas.

VISUAL ACCESSIBILITY

Direct Visual connection to the destination enhances walkability. In this case,the metrostation is not only given a direct physical path but a visual connectivity from Shakurpur ,

making it convenient for people to walk to it.

ACCESS AND AXES

 The institutional areas are disconnectedfrom NSP by the barreen stretch.However NSP is a flock point for the

college crowd,but the transit corridor isnot very active

Shakurpur:people fromShakurpur walk to the metrostation through NSP along

informal transit paths

Kohat enclave has its own retail,however a lack of community space

can be catered to by NSP

Civic Chowk and it s peripheralarea needs to be integrated backinto the NSP complex

Pitampura residents could have better

walkability to NSP and the metro station whichwould help draw more crowd from these areas

 The design concept focus on expansion of NSP in orderto integrate the various stake holders in the context ofthe DC

Barren stretch near NSP metro

station,can be developed to

enhance connectivity between

NSP,Pitampura and the

institutional area adjacent to it

Creamation Ground:asite deliberately not

considered as a development site,

railway land,left redunadant,

disconnecting Lawrence colony,Ashok

Vihar and KeshavPuram from NSP

dead space behind NSP ,potential to

cater as a public realm for people of

Shakurpur,as the area is congested

with lack of open spaces

this empty patch of

land bifurcates NSP,

reducing footfall at

Civic Chowk 

the reseaon for NSP’s isolation are the empty patches of

land around NSP which act as negative spaces and raise

security concerns

EXISTING THOROUGHFARESPROPOSED VEHICULAR THOROUGHFAREPROPOSED PEDESTRIAN THOROUGHFARE

presently NSP is like a massivebox with a central hollow core

buildings along the

periphery of the siteact as a buffer for thecentral core,leading itto become redundant

tall building facadesand raised plinth cutoff visual connectivity

HEIGHT MODULATION

PARAMETERS

areas with large open spaces likethe DDA park have tall buildings Visitors and tourist mostly enter NSP from LJN Marg.therefore

this area is retail oriented. The building heights in this region

strictly follow the D/H rqatio of 1:2.5

the central area of NSP have shorter buildings , as there is lack of setback space.Also it allows for sufficient daylighting and wind circulation
