REASON FOR CHOOSING THE BROOKLYN SITE

THE REASON I CHOSE THE BROOKLYN SITE INSTEAD OF THE MANHATTAN SITE FOR THE BUILDING I WILL BE DESIGNING IS MOSTLY BECAUSE I LIKE THE VIEWS OF THE BROOKLYN SITE MORE THAN THE MANHATTAN SITE. I THINK THE VIEWS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE BUILDING THAT I WILL BE DESIGNING BECAUSE I WILL HAVE OUTDOOR AND ROOFTOP COURTS. WITH THE NICE VIEW  IT WILL BE A DIFFERENT EXPERIANCE TO BE PLAYING A GAME OF BASKETBALL OR JUST PRACTICING AND BEING ABLE TO ENJOY THE VIEW. THE OTHER REASON I CHOSE THE BROOKLYN SITE OVER THE MANHATTAN SITE IS BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE SITE IS SHAPED. THE MORE RECTANGULAR SITE I THINK WILL BE A BETTER FIT FOR THE BUILDING THAN A TRIANGULAR SITE.
