Place d'Orleans Reinvente: A Senior-Centric Vision for a Suburban Mall
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Taking the now forty year-old suburban Ottawa's Place d'Orléans mall as its subject, this thesis critically reconciles current mall-transformation strategies with place-specific environmental, social and cultural sensibilities. Accepting the suburban mall's privileged role in seniors' lives, the thesis pursues the mall's radical reconfiguration into both ideal setting for senior living and relevant landscape for younger generations. Through strategic removals and additions, and via the "spatialization" of the mall's roof, a reinvented Place d'Orléans master plan and mall will organize commercial spaces, social programs, and housing. An interior urban forest and an agriculture production complex open the mall's mass, while naturalized parking lots reactivate local marshlands and their relationship to nearby housing. By considering future changes in transportation habits and parking requirements, and taking the new LRT station into account, the proposal aims to reconnect Place d'Orléans mall to its broader environment, and, ultimately, to reverse the effects of urban sprawl.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
