Abstract:

Downtown areas across Canada have been deteriorating physically and economically due to a number of factors such as age, suburban growth, and shopping centre development. Downtown revitalization programs were created in response to this deterioration. In the last decade millions of dollars have been spent, by all levels of government and the private sector in an attempt to achieve revitalization. More than five hundred revitalization projects have been undertaken. However, few project evaluations have been completed. Project evaluation is necessary to determine which program components are eff

Abstract:

The largest focus of redevelopment in Rockford, Illinois is downtown, which it should be. However, without the successful redevelopment of surrounding business districts, the neighborhoods surrounding downtown cannot redevelop, ultimately hindering the successful redevelopment of downtown itself. Probably the most important of these districts to the overall health of the City and downtown Rockford is the 7th Street Business District. The 7th Street Business District is adjacent to downtown and one of the largest business districts in the City. This project is the creation of a business distric

It uses Greensburg, Indiana as a case study to illustrate possible implementation of these processes and principles.With its focus on urban character and “identity of place”, this study investigates the different characteristics that exist in do

Abstract:

The intent of my thesis is to find a way to integrate a large big-box retailer into a community in such a way that it benefits the community as a whole.

This ideal must be approached from the philosophy that box stores are a large part of the current American way of life and to let them grow unchecked will signal the inevitable death of downtown retail districts as more and more business gets sucked to the super-stores and the areas immediately surrounding them.

Portland and Seattle are often considered to be divergent in character, partly because civic leadership in each city has a different vision. The adoption of contrasting downtown core plans, projects, and policies in each city allows us an opportunity to understand the nature of each city's regime. As defined by Elkin, an urban regime is the community's governing coalition, those who exercise public authority in a legal sense and those private actors able to act collectively and bring concerted influence to bear.

Abstract:

A significant problem for small cities is a lack of a sense of community. In some multicultural cities, land use in such categories as residential, commercial, industrial and educational forms separate uses or locations. Such segregation leads ultimately to a city stagnation which eliminates the essential life of vibrant and healthy cities. People commute from zone to zone only when necessary. Each territory is connected by automobile. Therefore, there is no interrelation which can cause discontinuity and fragmentation. The business zones are vacant at night because nobody lives there.

The adoption of this strategy has opened debate on the paradigm shift away from restrictive planning regulations at both national and regional levels. The process has enabled foreign policies and ideas based on internationalisation to drive the new urban centre developments in Saudi cities including Riyadh and Dammam. In 2008, this key shift saw
