The last decades have witnessed profound changes along abandoned or underused waterfronts,bringing in new pedestrian areas, new business opportunities, and new vitality. This trend is accelerating in cities around the globe. ^'Waterfront Promenade Design^' seeks to answer to the question of how we can go about rejuvenating waterfronts by promoting goodlandscape planning and design. In total, 34 great waterfront design practices were selected from all over the world, each with their own unique way of solving the problems posed by their allocated sites, social conditions,and public policies. All resulted in more vibrant, accessible, resilient, and culturally rich public spaces, attuned to these needs. In order to strengthen the waterfront^'s coherence and connection, this book pays special attention to the design of traversable space alongwaterfronts, ensuring that promenades are maintained as pedestrian and cyclists-friendly zones. Based on in-depth analysis, this book provides useful design and planning approaches for professionals, decision-makers, and scholars.^"--Cover page 4 |
