Industrial Heritage: Machinery Left in Place

A park that preserves complete industrial equipment. Giant steel blast furnaces, conveyor belts, storage tanks, and pipelines are all preserved in situ, without renovation or repainting, with rust and斑駁 clearly visible; only necessary structural reinforcement and safety railings have been added, with the new parts made of distinctly different dark gray steel, clearly distinguishing old from new. People can walk inside the equipment—conveyor belts become elevated walkways, the interior of storage tanks becomes sunken gardens, and sedimentation ponds become aquatic plant ponds. Plants grow spontaneously from structural crevices, climbing over parts of the pipelines. The ground is the original concrete, retaining cracks and oil stains. Avoid: repainting and renovating the equipment to look brand new, making new added structures look aged, removing spontaneous plants, enclosing the equipment so it can only be viewed from a distance.

一座保留完整工業設備的公園。巨大的鋼構高爐、輸送帶、儲槽與管線全部原地保留,沒有整修、沒有重新油漆,鏽蝕與斑駁一覽無遺;只做了必要的結構補強與安全欄杆,新加的部分是明顯不同的深灰鋼材,可以清楚分辨新舊。人可以走進設備內部——輸送帶變成空中步道、儲槽內部變成下沉的花園、沉澱池變成水生植物池。植物從結構的縫隙中自生,爬滿部分的管線。地面是原本的混凝土,保留裂縫與油漬。避免:把設備重新油漆整修成全新、把新加的結構做成仿舊、清除自生植物、把設備圍起來只能遠觀。
