人行道实验室  Sidewalk Lab
    Sidewalk Labs首次展示了将多伦多海滨区域转变为未来超连接可持续社区的计划。
For the first time, Sidewalk Labs showcased plans to transform Toronto’s waterfront area into a hyper-connected sustainable community of the future.

    大约一年前，Sidewalk实验室选择了安大略湖沿岸800英亩的土地，与当地的再开发机构Waterfront Toronto合作，建立一个全新的社区。该计划将投资5000万美元用于智能城市解决方案 – “将以人为本的城市设计与尖端技术相结合“ – 创造一个任何人都可以生活，工作或参观的地方。
About a year ago, Sidewalk Labs selected 800 acres of land along Lake Ontario to partner with local redevelopment agency Waterfront Toronto to build a brand new community. The plan will invest $50 million in smart city solutions – “combining people-centered urban design with cutting-edge technology” – to create a place where anyone can live, work or visit.

    虽然已经分享了特定人行道多伦多元素的一些效果图，即交通以解决方案为特色的街景，但没有太多展示整个社区提出的具有凝聚力的外观和感觉。本周，在提交给当地居民将其与遏制共享，实验室人行道开发给什么第一个想法可能看起来像。
While some renderings of specific sidewalk Toronto elements have been shared, namely street views featuring transit solutions, not much has been shown to showcase the cohesive look and feel proposed by the entire community. This week, after submitting it to local residents to share it with containment, the first idea of what the lab walkway development gave might look like.
 

    该愿景的一个关键组成部分是更多的木材建筑，由位于温哥华的行业领导者Michael Green Architecture为Sidewalk Labs制作。大规模木材建筑是一个更可持续的建筑过程，对于建筑工人和未来的居住者来说更健康。此外，由于附近的加拿大森林，它很容易采购和补充。
A key component of this vision is more timber buildings, produced for Sidewalk Labs by Vancouver-based industry leader Michael Green Architecture. Mass timber construction is a more sustainable construction process that is healthier for construction workers and future occupants. Plus, it’s easy to source and replenish thanks to nearby Canadian forests.

    Sidewalk Labs表示，与使用典型建筑方法的木结构相比，木结构的建造成本也更低，并且随着时间的推移可以更容易地进行更改或调整。到2021年，加拿大建筑规范将允许木材建筑达到12层。
Sidewalk Labs says timber structures are also cheaper to build than those using typical construction methods and can be easily changed or adjusted over time. By 2021, the Canadian Building Code will allow timber buildings up to 12 stories.
 

    寒冷多雨的气候趋向于关闭户外活动，但多伦多人行道的规划者希望通过一系列工程阴影和避难所在四季保持城市活动。结果将是气候控制的公共空间，旨在阻止雨雪，但也防风和热。根据人行道实验室的说法，这将使“可用户外时间”增加一倍。

    这里的标志性动作是“stoa” – 一个希腊语，用于覆盖走道 – 手风琴般的檐篷，以及加热的街道，以保持城市的更多公共空间。
The signature action here is “stoa” – a Greek word used to cover walkways – accordion-like canopies, and heated streets to keep the city more of a public space.

 
    虽然人行道多伦多是一个海滨物业，但围护结构本身的形状只有部分土地可以进入水中。该提案显示了一个计划，将海滨扩展到开发区，通过一系列桥梁，休闲区和公共海滩连接两侧的社区。
While Sidewalk Toronto is a waterfront property, the envelope itself is shaped to allow only part of the land to enter the water. The proposal shows a plan to extend the waterfront into the development area, connecting communities on both sides through a series of bridges, recreational areas and public beaches.

保持邻里与海滨相连的另一种方法是观察视线：沿安大略湖方向行驶的街道将拥有一览无余的水景。
Another way to keep your neighbourhood connected to the waterfront is to watch the line of sight: streets heading towards Lake Ontario will have unobstructed views of the water.
 

    Sidewalk Labs也在重塑人行道。实验性建筑公司Carlos Ratti Associati为开发创建了一个交互式模块化摊铺机的“ 动态街道 ”原型。该套件包括各种表面和微型嵌入式LED灯，可以表示使用步行与自行车和篮球场 – 并创建“车道”。
Sidewalk Labs is also reinventing sidewalks. Experimental architecture firm Carlos Ratti Associati has created a “Dynamic Street” prototype of an interactive modular paver for the development. The kit includes a variety of surface and micro recessed LED lights that can represent the use of walking with bicycle and basketball courts – and create “lanes”.

    人行道实验室不仅可以跟踪街道的使用方式，还可以随时调整通行权的设计，摊铺机也可以按季节更换，甚至可以随着技术的发展而更换。
The sidewalk lab not only tracks how the street is used, but also adjusts the design of the right-of-way at any time, and the pavers can be changed seasonally or even as technology evolves.
 
    另一个值得注意的创新是Sidewalk Toronto的街道层次结构，它创建了一个越来越大的街道系统，优先考虑模式的移动。因此，巷道（小巷）足够宽，允许车辆在早上或晚上进行交付，但在白天变成适合人们使用的广场。
Another notable innovation is Sidewalk Toronto’s street hierarchy, which creates an increasingly large street system that prioritizes pattern movement. Thus, the lanes (alleys) are wide enough to allow vehicles to make deliveries in the morning or evening, but during the day they become squares suitable for people.

    虽然这些是最新的物理更新，但该城市也将由其他Sidewalk Labs技术产品提供支持，这些产品将继续发展。在过去的几年里，Sidewalk实验室已经部署了数字信息亭，提供免费的无线网络，交通实时信息：历史照片什么（建筑物或可能的图像）。最近，Google公司推出了数据移动性创业公司坐标：多模式旅行计划路由器应用程序。
While these are the latest physical updates, the city will also be powered by other Sidewalk Labs technology products that will continue to evolve. Over the past few years, the Sidewalk lab has deployed digital kiosks that provide free Wi-Fi, real-time information on traffic: historical photos of what (buildings or possible images). Recently, Google launched the data mobility startup Coordinates: Multimodal Travel Planner Router app.
