游行队伍和运河广场的修复和景观美化
Restoration and Landscaping of the Parade and Canal Square
吉凯恩公园建筑师：13世纪的城堡，统治着中世纪的城市，站在一个战略高度，指挥着诺尔河的穿越。游行队伍将城堡与大街连接起来，是城市中最重要的城市空间。它向城堡入口上升，与格鲁吉亚式的正面和成熟的树木接壤。运河步道沿着河流连接城堡和运河广场。
GKMP Architects: The 13th Century Castle, dominates the mediaeval city, standing on a strategic height commanding the crossing of the River Nore. The Parade connects the Castle to High Street and is the most significant urban space in the city. It rises towards the Castle entrance and is bordered by Georgian facades and mature trees. The Canal Walk connects along the river connects the Castle grounds to Canal Square.

这些城市空间的象征意义不再与其物理现实相匹配。该项目旨在了解这些未充分利用的公共空间，将其统一为新旧元素和材料的连续条件，以适应个人体验和城镇生活的规模。该方法优先考虑历史背景的强度和这些空间的公共使用；它提供了步行、坐下、聚集和集会的特定区域，恢复了他们作为城市公民集会场所的潜力。
The symbolic importance of these urban spaces was no longer matched by their physical reality. The project seeks to understand these underused public spaces, unify them as a continuous condition in which old and new elements and materials meet to accommodate the scale of the individual experience and the life of the town. The approach gives precedence both to the strength of the historical context and to the public use of these spaces; offering specific areas to walk, sit, gather and assemble, it restores their potential to be the civic meeting places for the city.
阅兵式没有停车场，由一个连续的石头地板统一而成，那里的几何结构源自建筑环境。一条宽大的彩色大理石带描绘了行人区和狭窄道路之间的分隔。步行区由大型花岗岩铺砌而成，并由排水沟和灯带交替穿过。一系列的大长凳适应了斜坡。道路由较小的花岗岩铺路机铺设，以减缓交通。这使得空间在特殊场合可以封闭并用于单一用途。游行队伍树木内的砾石步道是用镀银的压实砾石和花岗岩通道修复的。拆除了20世纪60年代的卫生间，以恢复17世纪玫瑰园墙沿线的景观。一座新的信息亭大楼容纳了一个自动售货区、监狱长办公室、公共厕所和旅游信息。运河广场由花岗岩建成，现有变电站由新的预制混凝土围栏包围。运河步道的表面用磨光混凝土和花岗岩横带代替。一个非常轻的不锈钢栏杆，可以打开挪威的视野。
The Parade is cleared of car parking and unified by a continuous stone floor where geometry derives from the built context. A wide strip of coloured marble delineates the separation between the pedestrian area and the narrowed roadway. The pedestrian area is paved in large granite slabs and is traversed by alternating lines of drainage channels and strips of light. A series of large benches adapt themselves to the slope. The roadway is paved in smaller granite pavers to slow the traffic. This enables the space to be closed off and used for a single purpose on special occasions. The Gravel Walk, inside the trees on the Parade, is restored using a silvered compacted gravel with a pathway of granite The 1960s toilet block is removed to reinstate the view along the 17th century Rose Garden wall. A new kiosk building accommodates a vending area, warden’s office, public toilets and tourist information. Canal Square is pedestrianized in granite and an existing substation is surrounded by a new precast concrete fence. The surface of the Canal Walk is replaced with polished concrete with granite cross strips. A very light stainless steel railing to open up views of the Nore.
