Описание:
Michel Desvigne ist der international profilierteste franzosische Landschaftsarchitekt. Ansassig in Paris, hatte er Gastprofessuren an der Architectural Association in London, an der Harvard University und anderswo inne. Desvignes Projekte haben eine starke strategische und konzeptionelle Komponente. Eine gro?e Rolle spielen Verkehrsprojekte, die die stadtebaulich-planerische Kompetenz seiner Landschaftsarchitektur unterstreichen.
Das Buch dokumentiert zehn Gro?projekte Desvignes aus Frankreich, den USA, Spanien und Qatar, bei denen er nicht nur fur die Landschaftsarchitektur, sondern fur die gesamte Projektleitung verantwortlich zeichnet. Wie lassen sich solche Projekte hoher Komplexitat realisieren? Wie entwickelt sich der intellektuelle Gedankengang? Welche spezifischen Probleme stellen sich bei der Umsetzung?
Levine, Grengs, and Merlin marshal a compelling case to shift to accessibility-oriented planning, providing much needed conceptual clarity as to what accessibility is and is not. But their book also represents a major step toward transforming accessibility from a vaguely defined aspiration into concrete measures that can guide planning decisions. ? Journal of the American Planning Association
In From Mobility to Accessibility, an expert team of researchers flips the tables on the standard models for evaluating regional transportation performance. Jonathan Levine, Joe Grengs, and Louis A. Merlin argue for an "accessibility shift" whereby transportation planning, and the transportation dimensions of land-use planning, would be based on people's ability to reach destinations, rather than on their ability to travel fast.
Existing models for planning and evaluating transportation, which have taken vehicle speeds as the most important measure, would make sense if movement were the purpose of transportation. But it is the ability to reach destinations, not movement per se, that people seek from their transportation systems. While the concept of accessibility has been around for the better part of a century, From Mobility to Accessibility shows that the accessibility shift is compelled by the fundamental purpose of transportation. The book argues that the shift would be transformative to the practice of both transportation and land-use planning but is impeded by many conceptual obstacles regarding the nature of accessibility and its potential for guiding development of the built environment. By redefining success in transportation, the book provides city planners, decisionmakers, and scholars a path to reforming the practice of transportation and land-use planning in modern cities and metropolitan areas.

Описание: The rise to power of one of Canadas most progressive municipal movements in recent memory. When it was dreamed up in the early 2000s by a transportation bureaucrat with a quixotic dream of bringing tramways back to the streets of Montreal, few expected Projet Montreal to go anywhere. But a decade and a half later, the party was a grassroots powerhouse with an ambitious agenda that had taken power at city hall--after dumping its founder, barely surviving a divisive leadership campaign and earning the ire of motorists across Quebec. Projet Montreal aspired to transform Montreal into a green, human-scale city with few, if any equal in North America. Equal parts reportage, oral history and memoir, Saving the City chronicles what the party did right, where it failed, and where its headed. Written from the perspective of someone who worked for Projet Montreals administration for almost a decade, Daniel Sanger s book draws on dozens of interviews with other actors in the party and on the municipal scene, past and present. A highly readable history of Montreal municipal politics over the past 30 years, Saving the City will also discuss issues of interest to city-dwellers across Canada. Are political parties at the municipal level a good thing? Is Montreals borough system a model for other big cities? What are the best ways to control urban car use? What is the optimum width for a sidewalk? The best kind of street tree? And why free parking is a terrible idea.
