This dissertation investigates to use and increase existing vibrancy to revitalize an urban environment. The urban response is to consolidate existing functions within Rua De Bagamoyo, as a night- life precinct through the introduction of gaming as an extension of the existing night- life activity. The architectural response is to focus on a building that houses a casino and facility for prostitutes that challenges the private-public relationships of place by extending the street into the built form and the form into the street through a series of threshold spaces that explore the notions of visual and physical access. / Dissertation (MArch(Prof))--University of Pretoria, 2011. / Architecture / unrestricted
