Flea Market and Thrift Facility as a Third Place with Urban-Retrofitting Approach in North Kebayoran Lama

North Kebayoran Lama, Kebayoran Lama, is a sub-district in South Jakarta, which is located close to a transit hub, the Kebayoran Station. The existence of mass transportation service as a place of urban movement affects the area with the growth of new places for communities, and a third-place that was formed naturally. The place becomes unique by flea markets that sprawl among the hub, forming an image for the site, which unfortunately placed where it should not be. It becomes an irony, where a distinctive feature of a place is so potential to be developed, but also becomes the 'parasite' of the area itself. The project aims to overcome these issues with an urban retrofitting approach, to develop the area within the site, as well as the surroundings and the communities in one system, to fulfil the functions both socially and economically, but also environmental sustainability. The project is designed to be context to the surroundings, but also dynamic. So, the existence of the project doesn't become the 'alien' of the area, but the catalyst, and improves the image of the region. The design methods for the completion of the project are; 1) site and issue investigations, 2) proposals of the programs, and 3) final design descriptions, as a final result based on the programs and concepts analysis. As a conclusion, the design of the flea market and thrift facility is to provide a variety of activities, commercial areas to gather the buying and selling activities, combined with the education and entertainment programs, which also linked to the supporting functions for the transit activities. These programs make the project can be a place with diverse activities, and also a new public space at a negative point in an active urban area.
