The Y26 entrance is an exit of Taipei main station underground streets, which was established in the early 80s. With the increasing prosperity of society, the original design is lurking some issues such as improper circulation and aging for both the underground and the building itself. Taking the role of a city doctor by minimal intervention, the new Y26 is arranged with high transparency to bring more sense of safety for the citizens and tourists.
