The narrative addresses the concern of the nature of modern water infrastructure on site - its large open areas, functioning and out of use structures as devoid of access and human activity. Taking cues from the small scale vegetable cultivation on site and proximity to the Sabarmati, the entirety of the site and riverfront is imagined as a vegetable farm encouraging people to participate as a community; the infrastructure of a defunct water treatment plant finds newer uses in storing and distributing water for irrigation, market places to sell the produce, and integration of other urban amenities.
