This new covered soccer field and expanded facilities for FC Harlem is designed to take advantage of a unique site sandwiched between existing large scale infrastructure in New York City. Using soccer to "connect with young people on and off the field," FC Harlem is a community-based outreach program whose mission is to empower underserved youth, providing them with the "skills and support they need to be fearless in life.” The covered field is designed as one continuous surface on a modular space frame scaled to protect the field below from inclement weather while also creating unique new connections to the community. The project will transform the existing site using sustainable building strategies including photovoltaic cells integrated into the roof, rainwater collection, recycled materials, and significant site remediation.
