Redevelopment for Residential Use
The cultural change in office use brought on by the pandemic amidst a widespread housing shortage suggests redevelopment opportunities that can be explored through the lens of a speculative design competition.This is the theme of the Metals in Construction magazine 2023 Design Challenge,which awards a$15,000 grand prize to the most innovative design concept illustrating the feasibility of redeveloping an office tower for residential use.
Background:
When office towers lose tenants to market rivals,owners usually resort to makeovers.A move to remote work has changed this.With office occupancy barely above 40%of pre-pandemic levels,and tenants finding work-from-anywhere policies increasingly making economic sense,building owners look for more viable occupancies elsewhere.Redeveloping their properties for residential use is one option.But in buildings where the distance from exterior wall to elevator lobby is 50 feet or more,laying out efficient apartments can be too great a challenge.These dimensions are characteristic of many mid-20th century steel-and-glass office towers;owners are likely to view non-residential prospects as less risky.Given the severity of the housing shortage in many cities,encouraging owners to pursue residential opportunities instead would be very advantageous.Is this possible?Is it feasible?
Your Challenge:
The Metals in Construction magazine 2023 Design Challenge seeks to explore these questions by generating ideas for the innovative redevelopment of a steel-and-glass office tower to create desirable residential occupancy.It invites students and practitioners to enter their vision for an efficient,imaginative layout and technical solution that adapts an existing 48-story New York City office tower into residential units that can be rented or sold at market rate.

Submission requirements:
Submissions must meet the following requirements to be considered:
Submissions must satisfactorily depict the proposed layout of residential units and common areas incompliance with current code safety requirements for habitable space,building circulation and exiting using this floor plate as the basis
Submissions must satisfactorily represent current design strategies for desirable apartment living.
Proposed solutions must demonstrate an attempt to anticipate and accommodate future conditions resulting from desired apartment living.
Submissions must satisfactorily depict and provide convincing,carbon-efficient,year-round control of the indoor environment,including how natural ventilation for individual units is achieved.
Finally,all entries must be designed considering the key elements of safety,quality,cost,aesthetics,and constructability in New York City.
