The design is organised around a three-storey void designed to bring light and air into the centre of the structure. This can also be used for training practice to simulate New York's vertical urban fabric of windows, balconies, fire escapes and ledges.

Fire trucks and emergency equipment will be able to enter or exit the building from two sides, speeding up response times. The blocky massing of the structure will be broken up by multiple openings that will allow many of the activities within to be visible to passersby. These are highlighted by the red panels, which are intended to add detail and emphasise the areas where the building connects to outdoor and public spaces.
