The Mall Comes To Town: Planning For Its Development, John Mullin, Zenia Kotval, Edward Murray

Landscape Architecture & Regional Planning Faculty Publication Series

This article analyzes the impacts of malls on the character and economic base of a community. Based on both applied planning and academic research, it is clear that malls stimulate major changes in the community fabric. It is also apparent that community leaders who have a clear perception that their cities and towns have the potential to attract malls, and prepare for them, will be able to gain far more from their development than those that simply wait and see. The theme of this article, in short, is that a community either plans for a mall or it is planned …

La Investigación Urbana En América Latina. Una Aproximación, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

Con este trabajo pretendemos realizar un primer acercamiento a la investigación urbana en América Latina, desde una perspectiva global y vista, por encima de los países, como unidad. Un trabajo necesario que desgraciadamente no cuenta con antecedentes: ni parcial ni globalmente, se han desarrollado balances de la investigación urbana en América Latina. Sin duda es un gran vacío, no sólo por su alcance, sino también por las implicaciones y requerimientos en la búsqueda de nuevas interpretaciones.

A Study Of The Planning Process Utilized By Urban School Divisions In Constructing Public Schools In The State Of Virginia, 1984-1989, Patricia Liverman Powers

Theses and Dissertations in Urban Services - Urban Education

This research tested utilization of the "team approach" to planning for new school construction. The "team approach" is characterized by seven essential variables. To successfully plan a new school building, educators must: (1) involve more than one individual in collecting data; (2) provide quantitative data to the architect; (3) provide qualitative data to the architect; (4) provide data to the architect in advance of design; (5) provide data to the architect in written form; (6) provide original data, not prototype data; and (7) provide data which is used by the architect. Collective use of all seven variables constitute the "team …

Center for Architecture and Urban Planning Research Books

Sponsored by NASA/Universities Space Research Association, this study investigated advanced lunar habitats for 11 astronauts and mission specialists for durations of 20 months. Design recommendations are based on environmental response to the harsh lunar environment, human habitability, transportability, constructability, resilience and suitability for NASA lunar research missions in the early 21st century. Drawings include master plans, construction sequencing, detailed floor plans, sections, interior perspectives and construction details.

El Regreso A La Ciudad Construida, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

“The Return to the Built City”. This paper examines some hypotheses related to the transformation process that urban transportation in Quito is undergoing with the introduction of the trolleybus. The paper emphasizes an urban integrated perspective rather than a sectored one to provide a clearer perception of the process of transformation of the key channels which sustain the quality of urban communication. The paper comprises three parts: the first part defines the current context in which urban transport transformations develop; the second part examines the link between transportation and the new trends in urbanism; and the third and final part …

The Little Colonel: A Phenomenon In Popular Literary Culture, Sue Lynn Mcdaniel

SCL Faculty and Staff Publications

Written by Annie Fellows Johnston (1863-1931), a set of twelve novels published between 1895 and 1912, influenced thousands of readers to emulate the main character, Lloyd Sherman, and her chums. As the rise of the “New Woman” found multi¬tudes of southern women fearful that such change would threaten the stability of the home, impressionable young readers idealized the Old South and accepted the selfless values which Johnston taught through the Little Colonel series. Drawing upon both her own experiences and those of her devoted audience, Johnston recorded life as she knew it and provides modern read¬ers with insight into the …

Urban Square - A Link Between Two Cities, Margaret Clark

Architecture Thesis Prep

Twin City Recreation Center for Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Minnesota

"I will investigate the linking of two cities through the introduction of an urban square and its continuity with an urban street, with an urban bridge between the cities, and with an urban park system,. The program for the square will be a recreation center for residents from both cities, thus creating a common urban place to reinforce the interdependent and cooperation of the two communities."

A Transformation Of The Venetian Ghetto, Beth Kostman

Architecture Thesis Prep

This thesis is an exploration of the process of trans­formation in traditional cities. Through an analysis of existing conditions in the city, urban typologies structures may be revealed which can act as the basis for new interventions. Fundamental to this thesis will be the preservation and maintenance of the memories of a place while simultaneously transforming it with a coherent urban structure.
