来自建筑师的描述。在夏末正式开园的猎人角南滨海公园是一个总体规划项目的第一期工程。这个总体规划包括长岛市东河30英亩后工业滨水区的改造，以及自二十世纪七十年代以来纽约最大的经济适用房建设。猎人角南滨海公园三面环水，是城市生态的新模式，也是创新型可持续发展设计的实验项目。公园及其开放空间是托马斯·巴尔斯利联合公司和韦斯/曼弗雷迪事务所合作设计的，奥雅纳工程顾问公司担任首席顾问和基础设施设计师。
项目基地是一个滨水区域，一个城市，一个门户，一个庇护所，一片空地，也是一幅真实再现的风景画。设计充分利用基地的工业建筑遗迹和壮观的景色，创造了富有弹性的、多层次的文化和娱乐休闲场所。紧邻未来将建成的一所学校和有5000个永久居住单元的经济适用房开发项目，公园成为连接周边社区的公共大门和供人们娱乐的新开放空间。整体设计建筑、景观与基础设施融为一体，使后工业滨水区转变成可以观察东河水面上涨和预测洪水固定模式的生态走廊，也使猎人角南滨海公园转变成一个新的文化与生态项目的典范

From the architect. Opening at the end of the summer, Hunter’s Point South Waterfront Park is phase one of a larger master plan that encompasses the transformation of 30 acres of post- industrial waterfront on the East River in Long Island City and includes the largest affordable housing building project in New York City since the 1970’s. Surrounded by water on three sides, Hunter’s Point South is a new model of urban ecology and a laboratory for innovative sustainable design. The park and open space is a design collaboration between Thomas Balsley Associates and WEISS/MANFREDI with ARUP as the prime consultant and infrastructure designer.
The site is waterfront and city, gateway and sanctuary, blank slate and pentimento. Design leverages the site’s industrial heritage and spectacular views to establish a resilient, multi-layered recreational and cultural destination. Adjacent to a future school and an emerging residential development of 5,000 permanently affordable units, the park will provide a public front door and new open spaces for recreation that connect to the surrounding communities. The integrated design weaves together infrastructure, landscape, and architecture to transform a post-industrial waterfront site into new ecological corridors that anticipate the inevitable patterns of flooding and rising water levels along the East River, transforming Hunter’s Point South into both a new cultural and ecological paradigm.
