苏州工业园区体育中心项目的核心是苏州的健康、成功和激励。它将成为其社区的一笔巨大财富，为苏州及周边地区的人们提供了一个新的体育园，使他们既可以作为日常活动的参与者，也可以作为大型活动的观众参与体育活动。它将为邻近的苏州工业园区的经济成就带来平衡，使其成为世界上最伟大的市民社区之一。

The Suzhou Industrial Park Sports Center Project is, at its core, about the wellness, success, and inspiration of Suzhou. It will become a great asset for its community, providing a new Sports Garden where the people of Suzhou and surrounding areas can engage in sports both as participants in daily activities or spectators at major events. It will bring balance to the nearby Suzhou Industrial Park’s economic success, and enable it to become one of the great civic communities in the world.

中国有许多体育中心，他们都渴望实现这个目标-改造自己的社区。大多数城市之所以没有成功，是因为它们是围绕特定的体育赛事设计的(没有长期的设施规划)，或者它们未能捕捉到城市的特点和文化。在活动期间，他们只能在很短的时间内和距离上激励人们。苏州工业园区体育中心将通过与苏州社区和市民的接触，实现真正的转变-人们不仅会看到，而且还会使用这些设施作为参与者。

There have been many Sports Centers in China, which have aspired to this goal of transforming their communities. Most have not succeeded because they have been designed around a specific sporting event (with no long term facility plan), or they have failed to capture the character and culture of their cities. They are only able to inspire people at a distance and for a short time during events. The Suzhou Industrial Park Sports Center will achieve true transformation by engaging the community and citizens of Suzhou – people will not only see but will also use the facilities as participants.

更重要的是，苏州人会认同和理解体育中心属于苏州。体育园区的空间、设施的建筑和步行街的活动都将借鉴苏州的历史和文化，使这一发展成为所有体育中心中独一无二的强大特征。这种文化相关性，以及在运作和分阶段工作中的社区导向，将确保后代取得成功。

More importantly, the people of Suzhou will recognize and understand the Sports Center as belonging to Suzhou. The Sports Garden spaces, the architecture of the facilities, and the events in the Promenade will all draw upon the history and culture of Suzhou, and give this development a powerful identity unique among all sports centers. This cultural relevance, along with a community orientation in the operation and phasing, will ensure success for generations to come.

分阶段策略

Phasing Strategy 

The phasing of the Sports Center is thoughtful and enlightened – the initial phases of development consist of the commercial centers and community- based sports facilities, with the main athletics stadium being built last.  It is not built for an event, but for legacy use by the community.

总体规划以三种方式反映了这一开明的做法：围绕中央步行街的紧凑型设施规划、最接近主要入口的使用最频繁的设施的位置，以及利用公共交通的直接通道。

The masterplan reflects this enlightened approach in three ways:  Compact facility planning around a central Promenade, location of the most heavily used facilities closest to the main points of access, and utilization of direct access to mass transit.

最常用的、以社区为中心的第一期和第二期建筑(商业中心/水上设施、体育馆和竞技场)位于最靠近宿生大道和北面的中转站。由于宿生是通往中央文化区的主要走廊，这些建筑在工业园的能见度最高，将是其建筑特色中最具有城市特色的。从周边社区和公共汽车/轨道交通线路也可以获得最佳交通，周围社区每天使用这些线路将为体育公园建立一个强大的用户基础。

The most heavily used, community focused Phase I and II buildings (the commercial center / aquatics facility, the gymnasium, and the arena) are located closest to Susheng Boulevard and the transit stations to the north.  As Susheng is the main corridor into Central Cultural District, these buildings will have the highest visibility to the Industrial Park, will be the most urban in their architectural character, and will also have best access from the surrounding neighborhoods and bus / rail transit lines.  Their daily usage by the surrounding communities will build a strong user base for the Sports Park.

第三期主大球场位于这些初期建筑物的南面。当游客进入郁郁葱葱的苏州运动园时，他们沿着长廊被画了下来，那里有宽阔的运河、柔软的草地、座无虚席和沉思的口袋、茂密的乡土树林，朝向一座从新花园中生长出来的明灯，就像一朵鲜花。这座体育场就像一盏明亮的半透明灯笼-白天是红色的，晚上总是在变化-吸引着城市里的人们，把苏州体育园标在河上。

The Phase III Main Stadium is carefully located just to the south of these initial structures. As the visitor enters the lush new Suzhou Sports Garden they are drawn along the promenade, with its grand canal, its soft grass lands, its pockets of seating and contemplation, its rich grove of native trees, towards a glowing beacon growing like a flower from the midst of the new garden. This stadium resembles a luminescent translucent lantern – red during the day and ever changing at night – attracting the people from the city and marking the Suzhou Sports Garden from the river.

这座体育场从中国传统的灯笼中学习，不仅在照明质量上，而且在物理亮度方面都是不可思议的创新-使用的材料和结构比世界上大多数体育场都要少得多。体育场的朴素之美可以作为苏州新体育园各个角落体育、健身、沉思日常生活的一个可爱的背景。

This stadium, learning from the traditional Chinese lantern is incredibly innovative not only in its lighting qualities but in its physical lightness - using much less material and structure than most any stadium in the world. The simple beauty of the stadium can act as a lovely backdrop to the daily life of sports, fitness and contemplation found in all corners of this new sports Garden for Suzhou.

它的位置反映了它的作用-这座建筑将是一个能够举办国际体育赛事的标志性场所，但可能不会每天使用。它也可能在第一和第二期完工数年后建造。它不是在宿生大道沿线有一大片未建的空间，也不是一个大型设施，阻碍人们每天进入体育馆或法院。体育场位于更南的适当地方，作为社区活动的背景。

Its location reflects its role – this building will be an iconic venue capable of hosting international sporting events, but will probably not be used on a daily basis.  It may also be constructed several years after the completion of Phases I and II.  Rather than have a large unbuilt space along Susheng Boulevard, or a large facility blocking people’s daily access to the gymnasium or courts, the stadium is located in an appropriate place further southward, as a backdrop to the community functions.

体育场更南端的位置让人们可以从场址周围的各种有利位置观看和考虑它，增强了该设施在城市内的标志性影响。它还将提供一个适当的步行街游行和从北部进入体育场的广场。

The stadium’s more southerly location allows it to be viewed and contemplated from a variety of vantage points around the site, enhancing the iconic impact of the facility within the city.  It will also provide a proper Promenade procession and entry plaza to the stadium from the north.
