Designed by Taichung Stan Allen Architects (SAA), the Taichung Gateway Park located on the site of the former airport in Taichung, Taiwan. The park expected to become a new urban district on totally 250 hectares area.
The municipality of Taichung, located one hour south of Taipei by high-speed railway, will create a new urban district on the site of the former municipal airport. This vast empty site offers an unprecedented opportunity to imagine a new urban paradigm that incorporates ecology, urbanism and architecture.

I’m so glad to see someone’s attempting to improve the environment we live. By necessity, the project will be completed over several phases, beginning with the ecological aspects, then moving on to infrastructure, and then finally into the urban program.
