Tucson: Massing 01

Overview Looking East
In this proposal, the building sits low on the site. The train shed transitions to a planted roof structure over the parking areas.

View of Entry
The primary entry to the ticketing and service spaces for the station is on the north-west side of the site on Toole Ave near the existing Amtrak station.

Interior ViewThe roof structure is supported by a trussed frame which is clad on either the interior or exterior face, producing an effect of disintegration or phase change which changes as one moves through the space.

View from South, Parking AccessParking is accessible directly from the 210. The 2,000 spaces currently planned for the site will serve the new high speed rail connections as well as local light rail, the regional bus depot, and downtown Tucson.
