The site was once used as place for trains to be serviced and features a turntable. We transformed the turntable into a rain collecting amphitheater. The users sit along the randomized pattern of concrete and green seats which all descend to the central circular stage. Tucked under the stage is space for a large rain collection tank. Additionally, the main circulation paths are ramps which guide rainwater to the collection tank.
