This is merely a conceptual approach to doing the drawing and extracting the data on the floor area, by use, of the site.
The advantage of this method is that it is EXTREMELY fast--I developed this sketch in just a few minutes, using the Pattern function in Photoshop. The underlying drawing is from the reference design. It's almost certainly not entirely suitable to the site, but conceptually it works fine.
Yellow is retail, red is office, blue is schools and public buildings. Black is residential, always in the upper stories. The relative proportion of one color or the other indicates how many floors in that building are devoted to a given use. The floor-area data can be extracted using the Histogram functionin Photoshop in just a few minutes.
