The Plots Of Alexanderplatz: A Study Of The Space That Shaped Weimar Berlin, Carrie Grace Latimer Jan 2014

The Plots Of Alexanderplatz: A Study Of The Space That Shaped Weimar Berlin, Carrie Grace Latimer

Scripps Senior Theses

This paper explores Alexanderplatz during the Weimar Period in Berlin. It is looked at from three different perspectives: historical urban plans, Alfred Döblin's novel Berlin Alexanderplatz, and Rainer Werner Fassbinder's 1980's film adaptation of Berlin Alexanderplatz. Through these three mediums, an argument forms that Alexanderplatz functioned as both a major transit space for movement of transportation and pedestrians, but also the transit space for the movement of ideas and information.


Impacts Of Transportation Infrastructure Proximity And Accessibility On Real Property Values, Arturo Bujanda Jan 2014

Impacts Of Transportation Infrastructure Proximity And Accessibility On Real Property Values, Arturo Bujanda

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Investments in public infrastructure such as highways, airports, mass transit, and stadiums can increase adjacent property values, generating a value premium for private developers and adjacent property owners. A portion of this value can be "captured" as public revenue via property taxes to assist financing such improvements. States and local governments aim to anticipate and capture the economic value created by transportation accessibility. While value capture (VC) represents an opportunity for regional agencies to recapture some transportation infrastructure costs, it is not clear how much value is added by the infrastructure in a particular region. This research applies geographic weighted …

Multicase Algorithm For Road Realignment Of Informal Settlements: An Application Using Axwoman Tm On Gis, Husam Khalil, Ayman Ismail, Salma Anas

Architectural Engineering

Slum area redevelopment is a complex phenomenon to handle. Conventional approaches usually prescribe physical modifications to infrastructure, deteriorated building, roads or services. The problem is that these modifications are usually applied to most informal settlements regardless of their uniqueness or individuality. As a result, these policies do not achieve noticeable accomplishments in tackling slum problems from its roots. On the contrary they act as a catalyst that expedites growth in their number and seriousness. This paper offers a new methodology that sets a multicase algorithm to assimilate slum areas in their surrounding by the realignment of their roads network based …

Transportation Safety In Virginia: Positive Changes And Future Prospects, Nouran Hakami

Theses and Dissertations

Measured by the level of transportation safety, the Commonwealth of Virginia stands out from all the States because despite increased need for mobility, it manages to maintain its safety indices at exceptionally good levels. In many respects we can attribute this success to the comprehensive Strategic Highway Safety Plan of Virginia (SHSP), which is, as concluded from the analysis of its analogues, among the best in the US. The programs and policies described in this document embrace all aspects of transportation safety and create a harmonious system. To assess the effectiveness of the SHSP, this thesis used correlation and regression …
