建筑师和设计师们已经开始摩拳擦掌，提出了纽约公园大道中央分隔岛的改建方案，其中有“地下攀岩墙”方案、“巨型瀑布”方案和“城市皮划艇”方案。
Architects and designers have imagined ways to transform the central reservation along New York's Park Avenue for an ideas competition, including an underground rock-climbing wall, a huge cascading waterfall and a route for kayaking commuters.
本次竞赛的标题为“超越思维（Beyond the Centerline）”，主要是对纽约公园大道的改造，项目基地还有一座大型山地建筑／Responses to the Beyond the Centerline ideas contest, which called for imaginative proposals for the Park Avenue centreline, include a massive mountainous building
改建纽约公园大道中央分隔岛的其他方案还有“水族馆”、“高架桥”和“绿化设施”，建筑师、设计师、城市规划师、艺术家和学生都向“超越思维”竞赛的主办方提交了他们的方案。
这次竞赛由纽约Fisher Brothers房地产公司组织，竞赛要求参赛者们各显其能，大胆地使用创新思维来解决公园大道的拥挤状况。
An aquarium, elevated walkways and a putting green are also among the schemes for Park Avenue's central reservation that architects, designers, urban planners, artists and students have submitted to the Beyond the Centerline ideas contest.
Organised by New York real-estate company Fisher Brothers, the competition tasked entrants to come up with innovative ways to transform the congested boulevard into a hive of activity.
经评审团队150个参赛方案进行首轮筛选，17个方案成为候选作品。其中有当地建筑师提出的“城市皮划艇”和“溜冰场”／Entries have been whittled down to a shortlist of 17, which features Local Architects' proposal for kayaking and an ice-skating rink
这17个方案中，具有代表性是那个集合了艺术品玻璃展厅、高架篮球场和瑜伽工作室，并且拥有草地屋顶的方案。
当地建筑师们别出心裁地提出了改建方式，其一是沿河岸建造台阶，让纽约居民可以划着皮划艇上下班。还有一个溜冰场方案，专门用于滑冰或临时比赛。
From the 150 entrants, 17 were shortlisted for providing the most ambitious proposals – including three glass cubes to exhibit art work, an elevated basketball court and a yoga studio topped with an undulating grass roof.
Local Architects envisions a scheme that would create a narrow water passage accessed by curved steps, for New York residents to use for commuting by kayak, and an ice rink for skating or playing hockey.
Harrison Green景观设计工作室的“奇幻森林”方案／Landscape designer studio Harrison Green is also in the running with its vision to turn Park Avenue into a forest
纽约的ATYPE建筑事务所设计了“巨型瀑布”方案，在该方案中，瀑布从巨大的山形结构飞流而下，建筑师建议沿着公园大道中心的分隔岛结合景观场景，将更多的自然景观带入大都市中。
Harrison Green景观设计工作室的总部位于布鲁克林，他们的方案是建造一片森林，为野生动物提供栖息地，而Terrain Work工作室则模仿“纽约客”杂志封面的图片来建造一个种满植物的游乐场。
A waterfall flows down the massive mountain-shaped structure that New York-based ATYPE Architecture proposes to slot along the avenue's central reservation, joining a number of schemes submitted by landscape designers that would bring more of the natural environment into the metropolis.
Brooklyn-based Harrison Green has rendered a forest offering a habitat for wildlife, while Terrain Work imagines building a plant-filled carnival using an image that mimics the cover of the New Yorker magazine.

其中有两种方案将建筑排布在地下，Gaffney-Nguyen的方案是把街道设计作为通往地下的入口，内部建有商店和咖啡馆，Ames工作室的方案是建造一个包含了超市、剧院、体育演播室的多层次空间。
此外，“30英尺高（约9米）的麦田”和“绿墙”也被列入候选名单，尽管这些方案只是个概念，但主办方希望其他建筑师能够从中获得灵感，从而产生新想法。
Two schemes also propose building underground: Gaffney-Nguyen sees the street as a portal to a subterranean level, featuring shops and cafes; Studio Ames suggests burrowing further to create multiple levels for food markets, theatres, sports studio and a bouldering wall.
A 30-foot-tall (nine-metre) field of stalks and a green wall also feature on the shortlist. While only ideas, Fisher Brothers hopes they could incite others to think about new ways to use the street.

Fisher Brothers地产公司的合伙人Winston Fisher说：“虽然公园大道有着一些绿化和艺术装饰，但我一直坚信，遇到如此珍贵的城市财富，我们必须合理地利用它们。”
“我们希望通过这场竞赛和这些概念，来引发人们的思考，探讨如何激活公园大道的中心功能，为新一代纽约人服务。”
'While Park Avenue, with its median plantings and periodic art installations, remains one of the world's most iconic commercial boulevards, I have long believed that we can and must be far more imaginative in how we encounter and utilise such a precious urban commodity,' said Fisher Brothers partner Winston Fisher.
'Our hope is that this contest and these proposals will spark a real conversation about what can be done to activate Park Avenue's centreline for a new generation of New Yorkers.'

所有十七项提名方案将於2018年3月5日至3月9日在公园大道广场展出。评审团将选出两名获奖者，奖品是25000美元（18165英镑）奖金。同时授予公众投票的获胜者5000美元（3600英镑）奖金。
