Redevelopment of Sassoon Docks

Undergraduate Thesis | Fall 2016

Instructor: Mohd. Amir Khan

​

The design proposal for the fishing harbor at Sassoon Docks is multi-dimensional. It focuses not only on the modernization of the fishing industry but also on the requirement of the city for more open public spaces. The master planning aims to establish a fully integrated fishing harbor along with a ten-acre expanse crafted for the public in a congested city.

No rigid form has been proposed to restrict the planning considering the nature of the industry where the planning of various functions needs major attention. The concept is to Innovate local economy, Regenerate sustainable infrastructure, Protect the environment and Identity Promotion via the public realm, in order to create a replicable transparent development Model.
