Sharing Ideas For A Better City, Chester Smolski
Sharing Ideas For A Better City, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"It was billed as 'Rebuilding the Medium-Sized North American City,' and representatives from nine cities throughout this country and Canada assembled in Providence to discuss ideas, ingredients, processes, and problems related to restoring the physical fabric of the city."
Farewell To The Bucklin Bldg., Chester Smolski
Farewell To The Bucklin Bldg., Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"How does one write an obituary for a building? Does one concentrate on its architecture and long history, or does one single out the actors and forces which killed it? The current razing of the Bucklin Building can only bring sadness to the heart and the need to express, in a few, final words, a tribute to a fine and familiar structure."

Downtown Buildings That Link Us To Our Past, Chester Smolski
Downtown Buildings That Link Us To Our Past, Chester Smolski
Smolski Texts
"It is sickening and it is sad. A building that has withstood the ravages of time throughout its 103 years of life deserves a better fate; yet there it stands, disembowled and broken by the wrecking ball. The Hoppin Homestead Building on the Westminster Mall will soon be only a memory, and its site will be marked by that ubiquitous asphalt reminder of our automobile addicted age--the parking lot. Is this the cure for old buildings in a downtown that is moving on the road to regeneration?"

An Agentive Perspective Of Urban Planning, Nicholas Patricios
An Agentive Perspective Of Urban Planning, Nicholas Patricios
Nicholas Patricios
An agentive model of person-environment relations is proposed based on environmental behavior research. The agentive process consists of three stages: awareness of information in the phenomenal environment; perception and cognition - construal - of the environmental information; and action in the behavioral environment. The agentive model of urban planning brings together theory and practice and would assist efforts to resolve conflicts and achieve consensus in urban planning transactions.
