Site + Program Fit

This is my proposed program for my subway station next semester. The majority of the program will be underground. The gross square footage will most likely be different than what is listed below because this does not take into account a lot of the platform space in the existing station.

Existing Subway Station

Site-Fit #1:

Same above ground square footage as existing station just rotated to accentuate the strong linear connection with Faneuil Hall. This option with the larger square footage above ground would offer more than an entrance, it would also have plenty of space for a ticket hall.

Site-Fit #2:

Square footage was cut in half to propose 2 entrances that accentuate the strong linear connections to Faneuil Hall and with Hanover Street. The half sizes would be solely an entrance to the station with a ticket hall below ground, and would roughly be the size of the South Station subway entrance.
