*잭 에반스 워터프론트 리뉴얼 프로젝트 [ ASPECT Studios ] Jack Evans Boat Harbour

새롭게 리뉴얼된 잭 애반스 보트 하버는 이제
가족단위의 레크에이션과 물놀이를 할 수 있는
공공장소로 새롭게 업그레이드 되었다.
이것은 도시생활의 문화와 그린스페이스를 통합하여
도시적생태적환경의 통합을 이룬다.
또한 보행자로와 사이클로의 확장 그리고 해상활동 접근로의
개선은 도시(육지)와 바다를 연결하여 기존의 육지와 바다의 관계를 재조명함으로써
지속가능한 워터프론트로써 발돋음 하는 계기를 마련하였다.

The design work undertaken by ASPECT Studios on stage one of the revitalisation of Jack Evans Boat Harbour is now complete and the new recreational and aquatic playground is open to the public. The upgrade to the Jack Evans Boat Harbour enriches the existing park experience to become a unique civic place of waterfront leisure. The design strongly promotes physical activity by providing a range of public domain elements such as extensive walkways and cycle-ways. Steps, ramps for those with physical challenges, and unique water front conditions allow access to the water’s edge for swimming and boating. At 4.3 hectares, the parklands cater for a range of other uses enabled by the promenade including meeting places, weekend markets, memorials, children’s play spaces and generous green banks for relaxation.

Project: Jack Evans Boat Harbour – Tweed Heads
Location: Tweed Heads, NSW
Client: Tweed Shire Council
Landscape architect: ASPECT Studios | http://www.aspect.net.au/
Photographers: Simon Wood
Budget: AUS$8 million
Team: ASPECT Studios
Scope: Concept design, design development, documentation
Area size: 4.3 hectares
Completion date: 2011

It is also a major tourist attraction for Tweed Heads, on the Queensland and New South Wales border. The project has been developed to create a diverse, vibrant, culturally rich, recreational and tourism centrepiece for the Tweed Heads Town Centre. It is an exciting foreshore, parklands redevelopment project which will provide the impetus for critical economic revitalisation of Tweed Heads. This project is the culmination of extensive community consultation and thorough planning.

The park marks the transition between the river and the sea, framing the ever-shifting inter-tidal zone in a landscape which is in a constant state of change. The design offers a richness by creating a series of distinct experiences with the water – a new beach, beach deck, a rocky headland, urban pier, boardwalk, water amphitheatre, swimming areas, fishing points and boating. Further stages to the design will include an aboriginal meeting place, upgraded parklands and a café.

Cultural gardens, artwork story walls and space for public, community and performance art will showcase the regions rich local Aboriginal and European heritage. The redevelopment will create a public space conducive to increased local and visitor recreational use, whilst protecting and promoting the natural beauty and environment of the area.
