Red river city
When Hanoi touches the Red River
Red River City is a guided expansion of the existing urban core and is to become the southern gateway of Hanoi. At the point where Hanoi touches the Red River and dominating the regional ladder structure, a new transferium (including a HST) for Hanoi is developed. A powerful vertical programme related to the extended open space of the Red River, combined with avenues and a large urban platform give the site a very strong metropolitan presence. The development of this logistic hinge works as the urban generator creating a real estate economy that is able to sustain the development of the whole site.
To the east of the site starting from the proposed new (16m high) dyke, the large flood plain of the Red River extends, forming a soft urban field that incorporates floating houses, water-transportation, recreation and markets. Also in the north, the middle and the south, soft elements to guide urbanisation prevail: linear forests, edge parks and edge lakes.
