Abstract

This thesis project, Urban Infrastructure, provides answers to the question, How can a city’s systems and infrastructure influence its architecture? The building typology used to examine this question is a 75,000 sq. ft. city hall located in downtown Fargo, ND. The unifying idea of this thesis is to strengthen the sense of place through design by examining the basic components of the city. This project is justified because creating a sense of place based upon the urban environment ensures that the building will be designed specifically for the city.
