Townshend Landscape Architects:该运河走廊是摄政运河沿线的一系列连锁空间,贯穿国王十字车站的历史核心,东起约克路的梅登巷大桥,西至圣潘克拉斯火车站的铁路桥。走廊属于整个场地总体规划的一部分,它通过一系列活跃的公共空间,引导国王十字开发项目逐步向运河开放,冲破边界壁垒以重新连接运河,并融入周围街区,发展多样化的社区空间。国王十字车站的总体规划是开发67英亩的棕色地块,其中有40%属于公共用地。

Townshend Landscape Architects:The Canal Corridor is a series of interlocking spaces along the Regent’s Canal extending through the historic core of the King’s Cross development, connecting Maiden Lane Bridge at York Way to the east and the railway bridge accessing St Pancras Station to the west. The corridor was conceived as part of the site wide masterplan to open the King’s Cross development to the canal with a series of active public spaces; breaking through the boundary wall to reconnect the canal and knit in with its surrounding neighbourhoods and bring in the diverse communities of the area. The King’s Cross masterplan is the development of a 67-acre brownfield site of which 40% is public realm.

摄政运河将场地分成了两个区域,同时也将东西两岸连接起来贯穿了整个开发项目,运河北侧是一条曳船路,它与地面的高差约有3米,南侧是卡姆利街自然公园( Camley Street Natural Park ),它毗邻开发边界,靠近两条主线车站,是伦敦繁华地区的一个绿色港湾。

The Regents Canal divides the site into two areas and allows for the main east/west link across the development. The towpath is on the north side of the canal and is approximately 3m below ground level. Camley Street Natural Park is located on the south side of the canal adjacent to the development boundary and is a green haven in a bustling part of London close to the two mainline stations.

设计尊重场地的历史,增强了生物多样性,并提供了通往曳船路、运河沿岸新公共广场和花园的包容性通道。运河上也新建了两座的人行/自行车桥,以改善卡姆登和伊斯灵顿东西之间的连通性。

The design respects the history of the site, enhances biodiversity and provides inclusive access to the towpath and the new public squares and gardens along the canal. Two new pedestrian/cycle bridges have been installed over the canal to improve east/west connections between Camden and Islington.

运河走廊得益于极佳的南向视野,运河的景色已成为国王十字车站主动和被动休闲的自然焦点,其部分吸引力来源于它丰富多样的座位和为野生动物提供了一个长期开花、带有季节性色彩的栖息地的丰富种植。切尔西奖得主Dan Pearson的设计,提升了场地种植品质,并将他的超高技艺一览无遗地展示在人们面前。为了整体一致性,国王十字车站的景观总规划师Townshend Landscape Architects将空间序列整合在一起,并负责了大部分的详细设计。

The Canal Corridor benefits from excellent, predominantly south facing, views of the canal and has become a natural focus for active and passive recreation at King’s Cross. Part of its attraction is the abundance and variety of places to sit and the richness of the planting, providing habitats for wildlife with a long period of flowering and seasonal colour. The quality of the planting has been enriched through the designs of Chelsea-award winner Dan Pearson, bringing his international skills within reach of local people and visitors alike. To achieve consistency the sequence of spaces has been brought together under the guidance of Townshend Landscape Architects as landscape master planners for King’s Cross and they have also been responsible for much of the detailed design.

走廊沿线的空间包括:储气罐公园和储气罐花园——围绕储气罐结构流动的蜿蜒景观,以及储气罐8号结构内的更为正式的景观空间;巴格利步道——沿着现有高架桥结构延伸的线性景观,俯瞰着煤炭零售区域;河边台阶——连接曳船道和谷仓广场的座位台阶;运河曳船道——邻近运河北部边缘,沿部分运河向南延伸;码头路花园——蜿蜒曲折的景观与起伏的草坪沿着Handyside树冠的南侧延伸至约克路。

Spaces along the Corridor include: Gasholder Park and Gasholder Gardens – the sinuous landscape flowing around the gasholders structures and the more formal landscape within the structure of Gas Holder #8; Bagleys Walk – the linear landscape running along an existing viaduct structure, overlooking the retail area of Coal Drops; The Ghat Steps- the seating steps connecting the towpath and Granary Square; The canal towpath – adjacent to the northern edge of the canal and along parts to the south; Wharf Road Gardens – the sinuous landscape with undulating lawns running along the southern side of the Handyside Canopy to York Way.
