Redesigning Cities: Principles, Practice, Implementation
Autor Jonathan Barnetten Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2009
All
too
often,
no
one—neither
the
public,
city
officials,
nor
developers—is
happy
with
the
course
of
new
development.
But
growing
support
for
urban
design
and
successful
examples
of
redesigned
cities
are
signs
of
positive
change.
In
this
book,
Jonathan
Barnett
explains
how
design
can
reshape
suburban
growth
patterns,
revitalize
older
cities,
and
retrofit
metropolitan
areas
where
earlier
development
went
wrong.
He
describes,
in
detail,
specific
techniques,
materials,
and
technologies
that
should
be
known
(but
often
aren't)
by
planners,
public
officials,
and
citizens—and,
in
the
process,
makes
a
valuable
contribution
to
the
development
initiatives
of
the
future.
