EBBSFLEET SUSTAINABLE ALLIANCE

by Pippa Oakes

The EBBSFLEET SUSTAINABLE ALLIANCE is a hypothetical collective that would seek to preserve the future of Ebbsfleet, the country, and the world, through sustainable infrastructure, education and support. Occupying the centre of Ebbsfleet and its new controlled overflow riverfront and wetlands, the centre will house exhibition and education spaces that demonstrate emerging sustainable ideas and technologies alongside local interest, industrial, and maritime history. Integrating this structure with the high-level bridge across Ebbsfleet’s river facilitates pedestrian traffic between both sides of the urban wetland. This new civic hub serves as a model for urban living in uncertain futures.
