Easy to modularize
Fast construction
Forced planning
A high-rise form

Ideal for sites that are tight
Requires a very small site
Visibility of a tall building
Can be difficult to design
Difficult to expand

REDEVELOPMENT
Many structural and building service items
are already at the end of their life
expectancy in fact, BEYOND their life
expectancey.
It would be more cost-effective to
redevelop NCMH rather than do massive
refurbishment and continuous upgrading
of the old facilities.
The nature of the pre-disposition of
buildings on the site allow for phasing of
project components. Temporary transfer
areas for functions in buildings under
construction is easy to identify.
WHAT IS REDEVELOPMENT?
Any construction on a site that has pre-existing uses.
Urban infill on vacant parcels that have no existing activity
Ex: redevelopment of an industrial site into a mixed-use
development
