How are downtown projects conceived, scripted, produced, packaged, and used, and how has all this changed during the twentieth century? The authors of "Urban Design Downtown" offer a critical appraisal of the emerging appearance of downtown urban form. They explore both the poetics of design and the politics and economics of development decisions. Following a historical review of the various phases of downtown transformation, Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris and Tridib Banerjee turn to contemporary American downtowns. They examine the phenomenon of public-space privatization, arguing that corporate open spaces are the consumer-oriented result of policies that have promoted downtown renovation and restructuring but at the same time have neglected the cities' existing poverty-stricken cores. The book's case studies of individual West Coast downtown projects capture the essence of late twentieth-century urbanism.This analysis of downtown urban America, which offers extensive insight into the design and development process, will interest architects, city planners, developers, and urban designers everywhere.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 254mmItem Length: 178mmItem Width: 33mmItem Weight: 1315gAuthor: Anastasia Loukaitou-Sideris, Tridib BanerjeeGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, Architecture & AntiquesRelease Year: 1998 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
