City of Saltair
City of Saltair
Type
Saltair is a sustainable city master plan designed by a group of University of Utah MArch students and Michael Sorkin for The Physical Fitness of Cities:
Vision and Ethics in City Building, Symposium, Salt Lake City, January 2002.
“Fictional Saltaire is unlike any other Utah
city. Hanging trams shuttle 30,000
residents amongst shopping, home and work. The place is powered by [solar],
windmills, heat extracted from the bottom of salt ponds and by methane
generated by an old Salt Lake City dump. ‘Living machines’ – wetlands that act
like sponges for contaminants and bacteria – clean the city’s wastewater. There
are no cars.” – Rebecca Walsh, Salt Lake Tribune, January 28, 2002
“This begins with a consciousness of your
ecological footprint on this Earth.
It’s having a sense of what your actual relationship to the environment
is. A physically fit city begins with a notion of the larger place.” – Michael Sorkin
