This thesis is an exploration of the design of successful urban places, those that are filled with people enjoying the vitality present in a density of life.

While walking through downtown Blacksburg, unsuccessful in our quest to find a place sit down and eat lunch, Jay said, "You know Jon, there are no good places to sit in Blacksburg."

The effect of globalization is recognized as the impetus which is forcing places to compete globally. Place marketing approach is an alternative for places to attract their target markets.

Abstract:
Place as an entity is not fixed, but is constructed through subjective understandings. While past research on children and place has tended to focus on children’s special places, this study extends the research on children’s conceptualisations of place arising from everyday experiences. In particular, it explores children’s understandings of place as a phenomenon and insider understandings of place as a local area encompassing everyday life. This research, framed within the broad scope of place theory, explores children’s experiences to provide new insights into child-place relationships that

Abstract:
This thesis interweaves two strands of inquiry, one educational, the other philosophical. The educational inquiry is seeded by the need to understand both embodiment and learning within experiences of place in education. The second strand is prompted by Evernden’s insight that the environmental crisis is a ‘crisis of being’ (1985). Evernden argues that our perceived separation from the world is at the root of the environmental issues we face. Highlighting the role that ‘place’ might have in both these inquiries, I examine the educational and philosophical debates around place, drawing especial

Through studies in Sweden and England, it is shown how children’s place experiences are multi-dimensional, consisting of both concrete and abstract processes, places and objects.
