Abstract

In many of our cities streets are dying, killed by traffic, planning mistakes, housing shortage and dwindling services. Whole neighbourhoods are dis- appearing almost overnight. Well known landmarks vanish. Massive new buildings and roads rise up to dominate the district. Much of this is the result of slum clearance and redevelopment programmes. But what makes an area a slum, and who decides that it is one? How can the communities affected best make their voices heard? This book aims to Change the street: identifying the problems and suggesting action, based on the success of people who have managed to make their streets attractive and pleasant to live in, looking after the buildings, planting trees and flowers-most of all making them 'streets for people'.

Abstract

In a brilliant synthesis of words and pictures, Edmund N. Bacon relates historical examples to modern principles of urban planning. He vividly demonstrates how the work of great architects and planners of the past can influence subsequent development and be continued by later generations. By illuminating the historical background of urban design, Bacon also shows us the fundamental forces and considerations that determine the form of a great city. Perhaps the most significant of these are simultaneous movement systems-the paths of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, public and private transportation-that serve as the dominant organizing force, and Bacon looks at movement systems in cities such as London, Rome, and New York. He also stresses the importance of designing open space as well as architectural mass and discusses the impact of space, color, and perspective on the city-dweller. That the centers of cities should and can be pleasant places in which to live, work, and relax is illustrated by such examples as Rotterdam and Stockholm.
