Embedded within this simple flow of space, says Reed, is a deliberate cliversity of scales meant to provide comfort for in· clividuals, small groups, and large gatherings. At the inclividual level, he says, are the benches: "The whole idea here is that we could fold the wood surfaces in ways that could accommodate the human body in a number of different ways depending on people's moods and people's body types." CityDeck features about 10 different seating options, all with a rigid angular geometry that reflects the plaza's edges. All are long and linear, either just behind the railing at the water's edge or nosed up to the boardwall< farther back to form the bound· ary between the wood and the pavers. Some are backless and look like the number 7 in cross section, while some reverse the 7's acute angle to create a sloped-out vertical support Some seating is double height, with a lower bench's bad< forming the leg rest of an upper, baddess seat. Some are chaises, like beach chairs in stasis, but with width enough for dozens. Large groups can gather on several large platforms, hl<e the ShopKo

The number 7 cross-sectional benches are 1specifically asked Reed about his middle scale, the small group fine, but their partners, the ones with the kicked-forward base, gathering spaces, because the CityDeck struck me as very linear. are difficult to even sit down on, because you have to stand so He pointed to two locations. There's the spot where the outer far forward of the seat. 1 was moderately comfortable in the edge of the boardwalk inflects a little, rotating a few benches to chaises tongues, but the backs are perfectly straight, rather face slightly toward each other.

And since the detail has likely work very well, but when I visited the project I had been that upper seat's slatting extending forward over the vertical generally concerned about the seating, and Reed's short list of slats of the backrest, a pointy edge occurs right at the upper middle-scale moments didn't reassure me. The inflection he ref- back. Reed told me that Stoss prototyped each seating option erences is a widely obtuse angle, and a stairway passes between at full scale, out of plywood, and had various staff members of the seats right at the point of the angle.
