Abstract:
Cikapayang River Park’s pedestrian area that’s less organised from ecological and environmental side. New cikapayang River Park aims to provide comfortable public space while utilizing river as mutually interconnected supporting component. Outer space Environmental order includes environmental order against outer order, Merdeka street corridor which’s restricted by Cikapayang river, Bandung City Hall, Cikapayang River and Merdeka street, also Cikapayang river purification. Previously, Cikapayang River Park’s a single function as sidewalk, after revitalization, it has additional function as better public open spaces also Cikapayang river restoration became basis of this research. Analytical descriptive method used as methodology through direct survey to Cikapayang River Park from changing environmental order into public open space, then associating survey results conditions, before and after revitalizing to literature as basis of theories and river purrification. Analysis results showed impact of revitalization on Cikapayang River Park’s creating positive outdoor space, so it can accommodate the people activities.

Abstract:
Public space is a place for social, economic and culture activity. Besides green open spaces, there are a lot of space along the river that have potential issues to be created as a public space. In fact, number of riversides are filled by slum area and there is no public space along the riparian. This research focused on the determining the chriterias of public space that support connectivity and incilining the number of activities. Theory that applied for this research is A Guide to Riverfront Development by Charles A. McLaren amd Public Space principle by Stephen Carr and Carmona. Kalijodo is one of the public spaces that will be studied because of its position faced in front of the river. Based on those theories, there are chitrerias that will be used to analyse the study casem which are comfort, activity, sociability, and more focus on access, including pedestrian access point, type and distribution of universal access and pedestrian priority. The result of this research could be summarised that physical access are attained by stairs and bridge that connect from river. Eventhough, Kalijodo must concern about visual access, addition of specific program to spread the activities and support by dense of vegetation to reach comfort.

Abstract:
The increasing numbers of people and buildings that continue to grow and tend to be uncontrolled in the settlement causing some negative impacts one of them is the consistency of land allotment. This has resulted in some impacts such as ineffective utilities and environmental infrastructures, no mitigation system, and the unavailability of space for public spaces and other supporting facilities that supposed to be available within a settlement. Kampung Arab is one of a densely populated settlements located in the middle of business center area of Manado City, occupies the Mahakam riverbank. The limited space available in Kampung Arab has caused the settlements tend to be slummed and doesn’t have public open space as one of the residential support facilities. In addition, this settlement expands riverbanks so the functions of riverbanks become disturbed, and these settlements are often at risk of flooding. The purpose of this research is to analyze the function of Mahakam riverbanks against flood risk and to analyze the possibility of public space and pedestrian ways availability at the location of Mahakam riverbanks around the Kampung Arab settlement. The research method is qualitative descriptive method. Primary data were obtained through field observation, documentation, and interviews. The research is located in Kampung Arab settlement which occupies the banks of Mahakam River. Further analysis is done: 1) analysis of existing settlement of Kampung Arab to the Mahakam River related to: building’s orientation, river border, activity and behavior of society 2] analysis of public open space availability and its former elements, 3] analysis of settlement utility system and at the final stage conducted an analysis related to community activities and behavior. Expected results through this research are: improving function and quality of Mahakam River, restoring the function of riverbanks and public open space availability as social interaction space.

Abstract:
Ruang publik merupakan ruang untuk melakukan kegiatan sosial, ekonomi, dan budaya. Selain ruang terbuka hijau, ruang sepanjang sungai juga mempunyai potensi untuk dijadikan sebagai sebagai ruang publik. Faktanya ruang sepanjang sungai hanya digunakan untuk permukiman liar dan tidak ada penyediaan ruang publik di dalamnya. Penelitian akan berfokus pada penentuan kriteria yang dibutuhkan untuk membentuk ruang publik di sekitar bantaran sungai dalam mendukung aksesibiltas dan peningkatan aktivitas. Teori yang akan digunakan ialah prinsip kawasan terintegrasi sungai (Charles A. McLaren - A Guide to Riverfront Development) dan teori Public Space oleh Stephen Carr dan Carmona. Tapak yang akan di analisis adalah ruang publik di Kawasan Kalijodo yang berbatasan langsung dengan air. Berdasarkan kedua teori yang digabungkan, kriteria yang akan digunakan dalam menganalisis objek studi adalah kenyamanan, aktivitas, sosiabilitas dan yang ditekankan ialah akses, meliputi titik akses pedestrian, tipe dan distribusi akses universal, dan prioritas pedestrian. Berdasarkan penelitian dapat disimpulkan akses secara fisikal sudah terpenuhi dengan adanya tangga dan jembatan penghubung dari sungai, namun harus mempertimbangkan akses secara visual, menambahkan program yang spesifik agar pemetaan merata dan ditunjang dengan vegetasi yang lebih rapat untuk mendukung kenyamanan.Kata kunci: aktivitas, aksesibilitas, ruang publik, bantaran sungai Title: Relation of Activity and Connectivity of Kalijodo as a Public Space Public space is a place for social, economic and culture activity.

Abstract:
Cairo is a congested city with high rate of urbanization and very limited public space. Cairo has one of the lowest rates of parkland per capita of any major city. Moreover, the banks of the Nile, formerly alive with activities such as washing, fishing, and felucca landings, were by the end of the twentieth century largely cutoff from free public access by a wall of busy roads, private clubs, luxury hotels, restaurants, nurseries, and police/military stations, roads. The need for open space for people from lower income who could not afford the expensive options along the Nile banks, has resulted in use of the sidewalks of the main bridges as public spaces. Families, couples, and friends tolerate the noise and fumes of traffic to enjoy the expansive views and breezes over the Nile. As a result of this extraordinary re-purposing of the bridges, new small businesses have formed to cater to the uses, and a new interaction with the river has emerged. We studied the patterns of use, characteristics of the user population, and stated preferences of users. We identify a set of characteristics contributing to the popularity of the bridges as public space, including affordability, accessibility, openness to the river and visual connection with the other bank. We propose that these characteristics be taken into account when developing future projects along the river water front to address the need for public space and access to the Nile.

Abstract:
In China, the popularization of motorized transportation has made the contradiction between citizens’ desire to access water and traffic demands in cross-river areas difficult to deal with. Studying on the transportation and space systems from three layers of city across the river, district across the river and bridge across the river, this paper provides several modes of motorized transportation to keep harmony with and give support to the cross-river public activities. The research on the layer of city proposes suggestions on city planning and policies, while research on the layer of district summarizes several strategies on urban design within the cross-river area. The last part of research on the layer of bridge presents modes for reference on the public space on bridge and the connection between bridge and transportation systems.

Abstract:
. Public open space performs an important role to enhance the quality of community living as well as being beneficial in maintaining the ecosystem. It is also having a prominent role in disaster risk management applied to densely populated settlements. Nevertheless, social awareness about the essential role and utilization of green open space is still a concern. The aim of this paper is to deliberate the result of the river banks potential analysis that serves as a green open space and communal space. This study is conducted by the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) methods, which was carried out in collaboration with the local community group, to asses the potency of green open space at Nagrikaler, Purwakarta Regency, Indonesia. The result shows that community empowerment in optimizing public space, requires a critical awareness process for the local community to maintain environmental sustainability and social interaction. It is also shows the mapping of green open space at the village. The results from this study is being used as guidelines for designing green open spaces with community architecture methods based on the needs of the local community.

Abstract:
Although the issue of urban waterfront is not entirely new, it still represents a very vivid topic. Urban waterfronts have for long been standing in the forefront of many architects and organizations, who are aware of their value and the potential a watercourse carries within the urban interior. A watercourse is an interconnecting element between the urban development and the surrounding countryside and urban waterfronts are the intermediaries of communication. It is exactly in their area where the city - a purely human product with an inner structure and order defined by humans - meets the element of water, which is a purely natural component.What influences the urban structure most is, however, the presence of water in its very basic form i.e. in the form of a river. Its significance and effect on the public space and the inner relations within the body of the settlement vary with the size and the width of the flow, character of the waterfront, architectural layout of the riverbanks and its current utilization. Urban river works as a communication element which meets with the natural features. It seems to be unnatural to define a waterfront space like mono-functional site. This space denies the very essence of the waterfront and the city’s inhabitants appear as unattractive. In this case the very attractive element of water is unable to urban residents to attract together. In general, the quality of the public space is determined by the degree of its utilization by a wider group of inhabitants. It is the inhabitants themselves who imprints the concept of a public space to empty urban spaces.The present form of urban waterfronts is a result of the historical development, attitude and mental state of the society. The architectural appearance of not only the waterfront but also all public spaces is a reflection of the current social values. It gives evidence about the character of the society, the present economic system, the state and thinking of the contemporary era.

Abstract:
“Safety is an opportunity for people to open their minds” -Jin Baek, 2008 For my thesis I will design an education facility. That education facility will strive to meet with today's security needs and will provide a safe-feeling place for growth. In identifying the problem, I found two main causes for the described conditions in today's schools. They are improper adaptation and uniform building type. Improper adaptation has to do with surface applications, rather than integrating with the social fabric of the school's communal requirements. Unfortunate incidents have caused the solutions to heightened security around schools to be fortressing and disrupting to the human activities. Metal detectors, restricted areas and alarmed doors are some of the possibly necessary but often overlooked attributes of the school design, which in concentration create a trapping, prison-like feeling where they should suggest a place of voluntary education and inspiration for the future. I will utilize CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) strategies, research codes, new building technologies, materials, systems, arrangements, precedent studies, and testing through simulation or experiment, in a form of installation. I can determine possible solutions and interventions using these resources. Uniform building type sets a counterproductive precedent. Today we must look at places were young people want to be, and splice the desired attributes of those places in to modern schools. In fact, uniform building type is one of the reasons for improper adaptation. Through interviewing school administrators, building officials, students, faculty, psychologists, builders and other construction professionals, I can identify the mandatory requirements. Implementing security and safety attributes as part of the concept, and knowing trends in technology can help secure educational facilities while still maintaining the qualities that are conducive to a learning environment. As stated by Holly Richmond in Contract magazine, February 2006 edition, "Students are the most crucial design element in today's schools," says Kerry Leonard, principal and senior planner at O'Donnell, Wicklund, Pigozzi and Peterson Architects in Chicago and chair of the advisory group for the AIA Committee on Architecture for Education. "Understanding how people learn and creating environments that respond to this knowledge is the best building block to start from."

Abstract:
The focus of this study is the design of a public open space on the Mutha River corridor at Pune in India. Like any other river in India, the Mutha River has religious significance to the region. The river has influenced the location and development of the city and featured prominently in the history of the region. Most of the historic heritage values of the city are along the river and are located in the study area. Though the river has been abused by damming of the catchment, removal of vegetation for urbanization, polluted by human and industrial waste and channelization, it still provides opportunities to be developed as a recreational resource. Insights from a study of water bodies in Canberra, Australia, where the design of the water bodies for urban recreation encompass ideas of sustainable design, combined with an appreciation of the heritage of Indian design, are used for the river corridor development at Pune. The proposed development of the river corridor to include parkland is designed to provide a recreational open space for the community as well as improve the overall health and management of the Mutha River corridor. The proposal will also try and achieve long-term sustainability of the river. The design considers hydrological, morphological, ecological, water quality, aesthetic, vegetation, recreation and cultural issues. A more naturalistic channel as an alternative to a hard engineering solution is proposed. It provides protection from flood and erosion hazards, addresses social concerns like environment and health, and provides a more attractive landscape in the high-density section of the city

Abstract:
The research programme was relevant to urban planning and in particular to the design of stormwater management schemes that are more environmentally and socially acceptable. It examined social and perception issues relating to stormwater management techniques within residential areas, and in particular to the application of SUDS, mainly ponds, and river management schemes. The thesis arose from a project funded by the Environment Agency of England and Wales through SNIFFER under a programme titled “Social impacts o f stormwater management techniques including river management and SUDS”, SNIFFER Code: SUDS01. The public perception of construction is becoming a matter of increasing importance both in the UK and internationally since socio-economic parameters and public consultation both have to be taken into consideration in the planning and implementation of relevant projects. This research programme endeavoured to match the relevant legislative goals with society’s actual needs. The main aims of the research programme were to obtain an in-depth understanding and knowledge of the perceptions of popular stormwater management practices (SUDS and river management), and to evaluate these techniques from a social perspective. To satisfy these aims the following objectives were set: • To assess public awareness and perceptions of SUDS (particularly retention ponds) in the UK; • To assess professional perceptions of SUDS in the UK; • To assess perceptions of different stormwater management techniques, in three European cities; • To compare perceptions of different stormwater management techniques, SUDS and river management practices; • To link the research findings with trends in perceptions of nature and water. To meet the programme’s aims and to satisfy the objectives, the perceptions of SUDS in the UK (principally ponds) were investigated over a wide range of locations. In addition, the different river management approaches used in three heavily urbanised European cities, Glasgow, London, and Athens were investigated. The results of this research programme provide a means to understand perceptions of stormwater management and to appreciate what types of schemes will be more readily accepted by the public. The research has shown that members of the public hold strong views as to what they like or dislike about SUDS and water management installations in their local area, in spite of the fact that there were demonstrably low levels of public awareness of SUDS. The amenity, recreational value and aesthetics of new schemes seem to be of major importance for public acceptability, while function, efficiency, and maintenance are primarily important in areas facing flooding problems. Other key findings include the fact that there is a general preference for sustainable urban water management and for river restoration schemes compared with more conventional, ‘hard engineering’ approaches, such as culverting of rivers. This preference was expressed both by members of the public and by professionals involved in their planning and implementation. Another important result was that although unfamiliarity can produce negativity, education can influence attitudes positively even in sensitive issues such as safety, and can be used by authorities and planners as a means of enhancing the acceptability of new schemes. Consequently, the results of the surveys can be used as arguments towards the application of informative campaigns which should be taken into account prior to scheme implementation. This information can be utilised not only for stormwater management design, but also for other environmentally friendly constructions which the public may have a low level of awareness. Recommendations are made with respect to public and professional attitudes for improving the public acceptability of new and modified stormwater management systems. Recommendations and barriers to the uptake outlined in this thesis mainly refer to the appearance of schemes rather than technical issues. They are therefore of most use as guidance for improving aesthetics and increasing public acceptability. The outcomes of this research will be of use to policy makers, water companies, local authorities, environment agencies, planners, developers, consultants active in urban development, and researchers in applying wider-accepted practices for the assessment of public perception. Some findings from this research have been presented at several stakeholders’ meetings, at 4 conferences, and are published in the form of papers and reports, including the DTI SR 622 report titled “An Assessment of the Social Impacts of Sustainable Drainage Systems in the UK”, and the Environment Agency & SNIFFER report, SUDS01, 2005, titled “Social Impacts of stormwater management techniques including river management and SUDS”. This publication also constitutes Environment Agency R&D Technical report P2-258.

Abstract:
The goal of this thesis is a design of a public library in the historical part of the city of Přerov. The locality that’s beeing solved, so called Na Marku, is situated at the point where the three important pedestrian routes meet on the bank of the Bečva river. Attractivness of the place is well increased by the nearness of both the main squares, the river and the unique well-preserved underpass used in the past by the brewery. Every landscape, every city and place have their own memory. The locality „Na Marku“ is packed with memories that run back to the first settlements on the river bank, the construction of the city walls, and up to the recent reconstruction of the Tyrš bridge. Throughout the history the place was formed by the local inhabitans and their varoius activities. Those gave origin to historical and spatial layers that overlay and complement each other and have – in Přerov, as well as anywhere in the world – a huge influence on one’s identification with a familiar place. This is where the church used to be. This is the path that leads down to the river. This is where the lime-tree blossoms fall down like snow in summer. In my thesis I aim for truly understanding the “genius loci” and designing a building that would bring a new sense of life to this weary but memorable locality.

Abstract:
This thesis focuses on areas prone to inland floods and more specifically on the municipality of Acharnes, Attica, Greece. Usually, flood risk management strategies are treated as an engineering problem. Here, the floodplains/wetlands are going to be addressed as an asset and reveal the role of the landscape as a dynamic way for climate change mitigation and adaptation. Furthermore, such an approach can also offer potentials not only for water quality and management but also for benefiting the public spaces and open a discussion concerning awareness and engagement. Within the context of Attica, flood prone areas are not only ecologically deprived but also places of inequalities and loose social capacities. Acharnes is not an exception. Thus, the vision of this thesis is to investigate an alternative way for flood resistance by incorporating tools and methods capable of strengthening local communities. The thesis will investigate the following questions: •How can cities adapt to water issues and how can public space be used towards this end? •Can design for flood management be incorporated into a greater strategy connected to building relations?

Abstract:
The waterfronts of major rivers play an important role in the development of settlements. On the territory of Slovakia, however, there are many more small flows whose potential remains unused. It also includes the river Domanižanka, which forms one of the main urban axes of Považská Bystrica and is a significant element of the whole region. At present, it is designed for a flood flow with a trough recessed into supporting stone - concrete walls. In the built-up area of the city, this river flows through a diverse territory. In my diploma thesis I focus on six spaces with their own atmosphere and varying degrees of intimacy. These spaces lie along the flow on the busy line of the main city center with its local center at the SNP. To these spaces I assign a certain character, or, on the contrary, I support the existing one. I respect the existing values of places and I try to integrate their interventions into parts. The basis of the proposal is to create an adequate pedestrian and cycling link between these sites with regard to the quality of the individual stories of these places. Where water still represents the primary element of shared viability between nature and its inhabitants, humans. Water as a basic condition for the existence of life. Water as one of the elements, used to regenerate the body and the soul. To cleanse the city and the place.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Arquitetura, com a especialização em Urbanismo, apresentada na Faculdade de Arquitetura da Universidade de Lisboa para obtenção do grau de Mestre.
Este Projecto Final de Mestrado pretende melhorar a relação entre a cidade e o rio no território da Ajuda e Belém e, ainda, desenvolver estratégias para a reabilitação, requalificação e valorização dos eixos transversais que estabelecem a ligação entre a frente ribeirinha de Belém e o Alto da Ajuda. A área de intervenção, compreendida entre o Alto da Ajuda e a frente de rio de Belém, é caracterizada pela prevalência de grandes equipamentos culturais, como o Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, junto à frente ribeirinha e pelo Pólo Universitário no Alto da Ajuda, deixando entre este dois pólos um vazio em termos de actividades. O presente trabalho pretende definir uma estratégia de intervenção para o território que estabeleça ligações entre os pólos de atratividade existentes, com a criação de novas actividades e requalificação do espaço público, de maneira a unificar o território e promover a aproximação entre a cidade e o rio. A solução encontrada para este território pretende colmatar os espaços vazios e expectantes, com a criação de mais espaços públicos de qualidade e com a introdução de novas actividades económicas, sociais e culturais capazes de atrair diversos tipos de utilizadores e promover a mobilidade entre os pólos de atratividade criados.
ABSTRACT: This Final Project Master aims to improve the relationship between the city and the river within the territory of Ajuda and Belém, and also, develop strategies for the rehabilitation, requalification and improvement of the transversal streets that establish the link between the waterfront of Belém and Alto da Ajuda. The intervention area, between Alto da Ajuda and the waterfront of Belém, is characterized by the prevalence of major cultural facilities, such as Mosteriro dos Jerónimos, along the riverfront and the University Campus in Alto da Ajuda, leaving between these two hubs a void in terms of activities. This paper aims to define an intervention strategy for the territory that establishes links between the existing attractive hubs, with the creation of new activities and requalification of public spaces, in order to unify the territory and promote closer ties between the city and the river. The solution found for this territory aims to fill the void spaces and expecting spaces, with the creation of quality public spaces and the introduction of new economic, social and cultural activities capable of attracting different types of users and promote mobility between the poles of attractiveness created.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter focusses on the state-sponsored ecological transformation of Aotearoa New Zealand’s wetlands into grasslands under the auspices of settler colonialism, agricultural productivism, and public health. The physical removal of wetlands, we argue, were a constitutive part of the mechanisms of settler colonial domination. We demonstrate how the destruction of wetlands diminished the resilience of Indigenous Māori communities and contributed to a reduction in Māori wellbeing. We demonstrate that wetland loss was an environmental injustice that had specific implications for Māori peoples due to their material, socio-cultural, and spiritual connections. Lastly, we highlight how Māori agency whereby individuals used settler-colonial political and legal processes to try to mitigate damage to their wetlands, to exercise their responsibilities as kaitiaki (environmental guardians) and demand environmental justice.

Abstract:
An increasing challenge for the design of public space is the expanding awareness of the many dimensions and networks throughwhichthepublicdomainisfullyglobalandunbounded while built architectural projects remain inherently discrete and locally bounded – a paradox of public space- for designers. For example- how we are increasingly aware that any local and privatized practice (like farming along the Amazon River) has both significant direct and indirect impacts on shared global resources (like Canadian fisheries) the world over.

Full text
Abstract:
Waterfront areas in the city were occupied by industrial factories and freight ports in industrial age because of their convenience for transporting materials and resources by waterway. In the post-industrial era, as the role of the city gradually shifts from the ‘production centre’ to ‘consumption centre’, redeveloping waterfront industrial areas has become a global trend. In China, the city of Shanghai begins to redevelop its waterfront industrial areas since 2002. A main goal of the redevelopment in Shanghai is to ‘return the river to the public’, namely to open up the enclosed industrial compounds and transform industrial sites in the waterfront areas to public spaces. Focusing on the waterfront redevelopment and regeneration in Shanghai, this paper quantitatively assesses the publicness and quality of the newly created public spaces in three selected waterfront areas in the city. Drawing on the results of the empirical assessments, the paper argues that Shanghai has not achieved its goal of returning the river to the public yet. In response, the paper proposes some suggestions for policy-making aiming at improving the publicness and inclusiveness of public spaces in post-industrial redevelopment areas in Shanghai and other cities in the global south.

Abstract:
The digital library Casa de las Ideas is located along a canal that runs through the Colonia Camino Verde in Tijuana, Mexico. Adjacent buildings, mostly homes and businesses built informally, face the channel, where a large public activity, transportation and both formal and informal businesses are concentrated. Two challenges characterize this area: crime and flooding. The library is part of the urban development plan, an initiative by SEDESOL (Ministry of Social Development), which provides not only the channeling of the river, but the integration of a series of public spaces, parks, recreational areas, community center and a library along the river. The aim is to improve the quality of life of its residents and combat crime through the design of civic spaces, infrastructure and cultural programs.

Abstract:
<p>Gothenburg’s main connection across the river Göta älv needs to be secured for the future. The existing bascule bridge will be replaced by a new vertical lift bridge as of 2021. This river crossing is the only connection across the river for the entire tram network in Gothenburg. It is also a very important connection for busses, pedestrians, bicycles and cars. The location of the new bridge, close to the existing bridge in the central part of Gothenburg, generates several challenges that requires special attention such as: logistics, construction planning and minimal impact on the existing city during construction.</p><p>The new bridge is constructed as two separate bridges. One larger bridge that carries all means of transportation with a vertical lift span over the fairway and one bridge exclusively for public transport. There are several very difficult technical challenges within this project. One key challenge has been finding a balance between on-site construction and off-site prefabrication due to lack of space and tight deadlines. None of the construction are not allowed to have any negative impact on the traffic nor surrounding structures, which has shown to be difficult during foundation works.</p>

Plaza José María Planelles, 1. 03590 Altea E-mail: vicente.iborra@ua.es, zaragozasaura@gmail.com Keywords (3-5): Public space, historical urban evolution, tourism phenomena, urbanistic project, educational experience Conference topics and scale: City transformations The town of Altea (Alicante, Spain) has an important urban center that has historically been characterized by two contrasting situations: on one hand, the settlements located on the seaside elevations (Bellaguarda and the Renaissance Bastion) linked to the agricultural uses of the fertile valleys of the rivers Algar and els Arcs, and on the other hand the coastal developments, originally fishery, but nowadays with touristic uses on the maritime front. All these elements configure an urban nucleus that, due to its urban, architectural and landscape qualities, gives rise to one of the main tourist attractions of the region. However, the area described nowadays presents an important problem related to the use and habitability of public space, which is invaded by the presence of the private vehicle, even along the seaside, due to its touristic relevance. This article presents the results of an academic experience developed to study different possibilities of urban transformations for the municipality of Altea, taking as a project site the urban vacuum still conserved between the two situations previously described: the historical areas on the coastal elevations (Dalt) and new urban developments parallel to the seaside (Baix). This academic activity, performed by nearly 50 students from the University of Alicante, was developed in the context of the design course Urbanism 5 during the academic year 2015-16, thanks to the agreement signed between the Municipality of Altea and the University of Alicante.

Abstract:
During the 21st century, urban transformation of cities has been intensely affected by flows of socio-economic and technological processes. Through the centuries, such as all historical places in Mesopotamia, Baghdad has given an outstanding example of dramatic evolution. The city, which stands on the river Tigris, faced various transformation processes in the culture and physical environment due to social and political reasons. The transformation of Baghdad city is a very complicated process driven by various factors affecting the homogeneity of the old urban fabric. Reconfiguration and the production of new urban typologies within the heritage fabric were the most fundamental effects. The outcome was different spatial languages competing with each other. This transformation changed the relations and hierarchies among spaces, which allowed more flexibility and accessibility between private and public space. The main purpose of this study is to examine how Baghdad city emerged and to develop a comprehensive understanding of the history of urban transformation in the context of city change. To achieve this aim, this paper will utilise urban morphology to explain how Baghdad transformed from a geometric city (the Round City AD762 by Caliph Al-Mansur) to an organic form and then from a traditional city to the modern metropolis. It will seek to analyse the process of urban transformation in Baghdad and show different types of urban patterns. Moreover, this paper will try to illustrate how the new way of transportation represented by the car has affected the historic centre and changed the structural system of Baghdad.
