  And most important, permeable, open.  最重要、方便通行且开放的是,
  It does not form a wall or an obstruction3 in the city,  城市没有筑起任何围墙或障碍物,
  and light permeates4 everywhere.  而且阳光能洒在每个角落。

  that every apartment must receive  规定每间公寓都必须能拥有
  three hours of sunlight.  三小时的日照,

  A hundred years after we've begun building with tall buildings 从百年前,我们开始盖高楼大厦至今,
  we are yet to understand  我们还是不了解
  how the tall high-rise building  高楼大厦要怎么变成组合、堆栈式建筑,

  in creating the public realm.  和建立公共空间。
  In Singapore, we had an opportunity:  在新加坡,我们有了机会:
  10 million square feet, extremely high density6.  一千万平方英尺,密度非常高。
  Taking the concept of outdoor and indoor,  以室外与室内的概念来看,
  promenades7 and parks integrated with intense urban life. 海滨步道和公园融入紧绷的都市生活。
  So they are outdoor spaces and indoor spaces,  那里有室外和室内空间,
  and you move from one to the other,  你可以在不同的空间移动,
  and there is contact with nature,  还能亲近自然,
  and most relevantly, at every level of the structure,  最贴切的是每一层楼都有
  public gardens and open space:  公共花园和开放空间。
  on the roof of the podium,  在墩座顶部,
