8月下旬最后一周,纽约市政府宣布启动布什码头(Bush Terminal)MADE项目,地点位于布鲁克林日落公园。该项目将在为期一年的试点阶段内,把原有工业建筑改造为建筑材回收、仓储、分拣与再分配中心。该倡议呼应了近期在欧洲多地陆续启动或宣布的一系列类似循环建造枢纽:布鲁塞尔一处经改造的仓库、伦敦东部皇家码头(Royal Docks)一处工业场地适应性再利用项目,以及由CirCoFin支持的跨国网络——覆盖慕尼黑、哥本哈根、里斯本和苏格兰——各节点均通过改造既有工业建筑与基础设施,以支撑建筑材的再利用。
During the last week of August, the New York City government announced a new project for the MADE Bush Terminal in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. It involves the transformation of the old industrial building into a center for the recovery, storage, sorting, and redistribution of construction materials during a one-year pilot program. The initiative echoes a wave of similar circular construction hubs recently launched or announced across Europe : a converted warehouse in Brussels, an industrial site adaptation in East London's Royal Docks, and a cross-border network supported by CirCoFin spanning Munich, Copenhagen, Lisbon, and Scotland, each repurposing industrial buildings and infrastructure to support the reuse of construction materials.
