YazJazz's video: REevolution - Portland Knowledge District

RE evolution is an innovative structure that brings together students, scientists, families with children and anyone who is interested in the idea of making world a better place. Imagine that hundreds of people are gathering in one place in order to become familiar with renewable energy sources. Sportsmen are running on the athletics track that generates enough power to illuminate the whole city. Children are enthusiastically making small experiments knowing that after all they will have energy to propel toys, made by them in OMSI and play whole evening. Music enthusiasts are calmly sitting on eco-grass listening to the orchestra having in mind that Beethoven symphonies are supporting algae in the process of producing energy. In the middle of this there is a group of students, carefully watching what is happening around in order to carry out some research in collaboration with scientists on the topic of renewable energy. Sounds like science-fiction? Now yes, but it may become reality here, in Portland. The main aim of the complex is to make people more aware of our world’s problems. As it is a tough issue, the best option seems to present some topics in an appealing and entertaining way. Therefore, we propose creating a unique amusement park, supported with science labs, technological park and student’s centre in order to find a perfect balance between knowledge and fun. We also suggest locating some office buildings in the area. We strongly believe that that kind of structure will revitalize the whole city and gather people in one place. As a main point of our composition we propose outstanding building, which not only functions as a railway station and culmination of services but is also reflecting our vision because of its modern architecture and interesting design. We also suggest locating some office buildings in the area as we believe it may transform into the centre of the district. We strongly believe that that kind of structure will revitalize the whole city and gather people in one place. Moreover, there is a place predesigned for students with dormitories and areas appropriate for their studies and self-development supported with small park where they can relax after a tough day. Although culture and science may seem to have nothing in common, in ‘REevolution’ it is proven that it is quite the opposite. Algae love Mozart! While listening to classical music, it generates much more energy than it does while working in silence. ' The main point of REevolution structure is a dominant that connects a variety of functions in one building. From train station, shopping stalls and railway museum to office suites and residential apartaments, this unique place not only generates income making it beneficial for the whole society but also provides some additional functions for the residents. It’s outstanding design, enriched with wind turbines that provide energy for the REevolution complex, is something that completely changes the skyline of the city and announces rapid development in the nearest future. 427 feet high RE evolution skyscraper will become the fifth-tallest building in Portland. It will also produce energy from wind turbines for whole district.
