美国两个滨水公园规划介绍查尔斯顿滨水公园查尔斯顿,南卡罗来纳州设计/完成时间:1978/1987年滨水公园建设和邻近街区的再开发是政府对城市旅游资源进行调配的举措之一,将旅游资源由过度集中的巴特利地段向未被充分利用的滨水地区扩散。
查理斯顿滨水公园鸟瞰查尔斯顿是一个规模适宜并保存着大量传统建筑的城市,是南卡罗来纳州最具吸引力的城市之一。
随着旅游者、中小公司、旅馆、饭店和商店的增多,改造废弃的城市滨水地区成为城市发展的一个重要问题。
滨水地区重建的意图是通过更新和引进一系列项目为该地区带来活力,成为城市中有吸引力的一个滨水环境,从而吸引居民、旅游者、购物者和商人来到查尔斯顿。
总平面示意图为了振兴这座有历史意义的城市,查尔斯顿实行了一项改造滨水地区的长期计划。
像许多其他城市一样,查尔斯顿市位于库匹河沿岸的码头设施都已经荒废,原来岸边的机构都已经迁走,只留下废弃的土地和建筑物,而这里距离查尔斯顿城市中心仅有十分钟的步行路程。
码头周围的街区是在以往码头兴盛时期形成和发展起来的,它们是这一历史城市中重要的部分,但是随着码头的废弃而衰败,滨水地区甚至变成了停车场。
由于木桩的腐烂和长期缺乏疏浚,港口河道水域逐渐变浅并长出了大片的沼泽植物。
中央喷泉重建滨水地区使其成为吸引公众的一个去处,这是查尔斯顿市市长实施的若干城市市区更新计划之一。
对这一滨水地区的重建一定要考虑历史因素和当地的特征,设计构思必须尊重这些使查尔斯顿有别于其他城市的要素。
在过去的20年间,这一滨水地区被改造成公园和公众休憩场所,包括查尔斯顿滨水公园和航海中心,并在周围的历史街区中修建了几处停车设施。
橡树林和散步道市政当局设想建成一条环绕半岛的滨水步行路线将城市中心与城市的两条河流联系起来,并根据这个设想形成了总体规划来控制具体的设计和开发。
滨水公园建设和邻近街区的再开发是政府对城市旅游资源进行调配的举措之一,将旅游资源由过度集中的巴特利地段向未被充分利用的滨水地区扩散。
城市滨水空间的规划原则与实施策略- 规划设计城市滨水空间的规划原则与实施策略摘要:本文以城市滨水空间为研究对象,通过对国内外城市滨水空间发展历史的回顾与总结,阐述了如何针对我国当前城市建设特点,开展滨水空间的规划与建设,提出了相应的规划目标、规划原则和实施策略。
关键词:滨水空间规划原则实施策略城市滨水空间是城市居民基本的活动空间之一,也是体现城市形象的重要节点。
上世纪末以来,为了提升城市的形象以及人们的物质文化生活品质,我国城市滨水空间开发建设热潮此起彼伏。
随着滨水空间的开发与城市建设的快速扩展,滨水空间设计中的一系列问题开始显现,诸如用地结构不合理、景观环境不协调、忽视城市的历史文脉以及与生态环境保护相背离等等。
因此,有必要对其深入研究。
1滨水空间的规划目标1.1城市滨水空间的发展历程国外(主要为西方国家)城市滨水区经历了三个大的发展阶段,即资源经济时代、工业化时代和后工业化时代[1]。
城市滨水区作为城市空间的重要组成,经历了兴起、繁荣、衰败以及复兴,由生活空间、生产空间向复合型多元空间转变。
1) 资源经济时代——小规模改造,功能混合,自然发展资源经济时代,即前工业化时代,城市经济发展以资源利用为主,对“水”的利用包括灌溉、生活供水与排水、人货交通等最基本的功能。
对城市发展而言,贸易能力是直接决定城市地位的一个重要因素。
因此,世界上许多地处大江大河或海陆交汇之处的城市,突破了仅仅作为商人和手工业者社区的局限,获得快速发展,成为前工业化时代人口集聚和商品交易的中心。
这一时期城市滨水区的典型特征是码头、仓库大量集聚,港口与城市生活混合,成为城市的交通中心和商业文化中心。
当然,受到生产能力的限制,人们对滨水区的改造行为规模较小,功能混合,更多的是一种自然发展的态势。
2) 工业化时代——大规模改造,生产为主,环境恶化工业革命带来生产力的巨大飞跃,大量资本要素积聚于滨水区,城市产业资本的发展极大地推动了滨水区的发展。
170WATERFRONTNew York is a waterfront city. Four of our five boroughs are on islands, and the fifth is a peninsula. That translates into 520 miles of shoreline, which is more than Seattle, San Francisco, Chicago, and Portland have combined. Our water’s edge is home to a maritime industry that supports 31,000 jobs and generates $1.3 billion in tax revenue. It is the location for criti-cal infrastructure such as power plants, airports, and waste-water treatment plants. Our shoreline includes a diverse mix of commercial and residential developments, natural habitats for hundreds of species of birds and fish, and 220 miles of public space.Our waterfront is an invaluable asset, but for decades New Yorkers have had access to too little of it. Recently, we have engaged in a wide-ranging effort to reclaim our waterfront. We have opened access to miles of shoreline that had been closed to the public, developed new parks in all five boroughs, built thousands of units of new housing, created new maritime jobs, and cleaned our waterways. To continue this revitaliza-tion, we released Vision 2020: New York City Comprehensive Waterfront Plan in 2011 to establish a long-range vision for the entire shoreline. Vision 2020 built on the initiatives first presented in PlaNYC in 2007. In turn, this update of PlaNYC builds on Vision 2020.INITIATIVES Housing and Neighborhoods • Develop new neighborhoods on underutilized sites • Create new units in existingneighborhoods | Parks and Public Space • Create and upgrade flagship parks • Convert former landfills into public space and parkland • Increase opportunities for water-based recreation • Improve collaboration between City, state, and federal partners • Create a network of green corridors • Conserve natural areas • Support and encourage stewardship • Incorporate sustainability through the design and maintenance of all public space | Brownfields • Increase participation in the NYC Brownfield Cleanup Program by partnering with lenders and insurers • Enable the identification, cleanup and redevelopment of brownfields | Waterways • Upgrade wastewater treatment plants to achieve secondary treatment standards • Upgrade treatment plants to reduce nitrogen discharges • Complete cost-effective grey infrastructure projects to reduce CSOs and improve water quality • Expand the sewer network • Optimize the existing sewer system • Expand the Bluebelt program • Build public green infrastructure projects • Engage and enlist communities in sustainable stormwater management • Modify codes to increase the capture of stormwater • Provide incentives for green infrastructure • Actively participate in waterway clean-up efforts • Enhance wetlands protection • Restore and create wetlands • Improve wetlands mitigation • Improve habitat for aquatic species | Transportation • Expand and improve ferry service • Improve freight movement | Air Quality • Retrofit ferries and promote the use of cleaner fuels • Work with the Port Authority to implement the Clean Air Strategy | Solid Waste • Reduce the impact of the waste system on communities | Climate Change • Regularly assess climate change projections • Partner with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to regularly update Flood Insurance Rate Maps • Develop tools to measure New York City’s current and future climate exposure • Update regulations to increase the resilience of buildings • Work with the insurance industry to develop strategies to encourage the use of flood protections in buildings • Protect New York City’s critical infrastructure • Identify and evaluate citywide coastal protective measures • Integrate climate change projections into emergency management and preparedness • Work with communities to increase their climate resilienceWe will enhance areas along the water and increase access to the water itself. By reducing Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs), decreasing nitrogen discharges, removing contami-nated sediments, and restoring wetlands, we will strengthen our coastal ecosystems and provide more opportunities to use our waterways not only for people but for blue heron and bass as well. We will also transform underutilized areas along the water into destination parks in all five boroughs, includ-ing Brooklyn Bridge Park, Governors Island, Soundview Park, Rockaway Beach Park, and Freshkills Park.We will continue to enliven the waterfront with a range of attractive uses. We will build new residential neighborhoods at Hunter’s Point South and Willets Point. We will explore zoning changes for under-utilized areas to create opportunities for more productive uses. Development along our shores can help meet the need for housing and other services for a grow-ing population as well as provide jobs, generate tax revenues, and bring more people to the water. To make more under-utilized land available for redevelopment, we will implement programs to ensure a more effective process for cleaning up contaminated land.Our waterways will remain increasingly important blue high-ways for moving goods and people. An increase in water-borne transportation will relieve the burden on our streets and transit system. Ferry service on the East River will give more people a sustainable transportation alternative, while increas-ing tug-and-barge use to move solid waste out of the city will improve air quality and reduce congestion by taking trucks off the road. We will achieve cleaner air for waterfront communi-ties by increasing the use of cleaner fuels in maritime vessels and reducing emissions from the ships, trains, and trucks that use our ports.We will assess and respond to the impacts that sea level rise, storm surge, and increased precipitation levels will have on our coastal areas. By developing tools to measure New York City’s current and future climate risks, we will make more informed decisions in terms of how we design and adapt criti-cal pieces of coastal infrastructure and other elements of our built environment.Our effort to revitalize New York City’s waterfront extends beyond the initiatives in PlaNYC. Vision 2020 seeks not only to create new residential areas and parks where opportuni-ties exist but also to maintain a vibrant working waterfront where water-dependent industries can grow and thrive. We are developing waterfront infrastructure to enable the expan-sion of critical economic activities such as port commerce and shipping.Our waterfront is a crucial component of our physical, eco-nomic, and social fabric. We will revitalize our city’s edge to reconnect New Yorkers and visitors to the water and reclaim New York City’s standing as a premier waterfront city. With smart and sensitive planning, we will create a waterfront that will be cherished for generations to come.171A GREENER, GREATER NEW YORKPLANYC。
达拉斯,得克萨斯州设计时间:2000年三一河通道总体实施规划是一项长期的远景规划,第一阶段实施长约32公里的沿三一河路段。
该项目是促进城市南北车辆交通从而振兴城市经济的一项重要基建程。
以往曾提案过的沿三一河岸的车行道建设项目被重新加以考虑,实际上正是该河岸将三一河与达拉斯市分隔开来。
该项目内容包括挖土扩建河岸堤坝,抬高新建道路,新建桥梁跨越滩涂区,同时挖土将形成一些人工湖。
根据环境特征,设计构想强调整个通道地区以湖泊、沿河车行道、新建桥梁、娱乐区、湿地和数英里长的自然道路为其特色。
同时还计划在开发中恢复泻洪道并加以利用。
新产生的湖泊的最终形态将严格取决于水文上的要求,同时也要考虑到尺度和城市景观。
整个通道工程的核心区域由两部分组成:下游区和上游区。
下游区面向中心城区,上游区南面朝向住宅区、北面朝向轻工业区。
出于格局上的考虑,下游区被设计为娱乐区,有一块大的水面,可以划船、扬帆,举行大型聚会,观赏城市天际线在水中的倒影。
与此相对,上游区由若干的湖泊组成,是为社区服务的自然公园区,由湿地和草地组成,在洪水到达市区之前起阻隔作用。
关于沿河约8公里长朝向中心城区的部分,具体构思涉及城市结构和相关区域的开发,涉及建立一套联系沿河通道与临近社区的公共空间系统,确定河道外湖泊的位置和形状,改建河堤和建设一系列娱乐设施,包括步道、市民聚会区、公园、草地和湿地。
规划还设想了将来的城市形态和主要开发基地的区域特色。
该设计构想正在逐步实施之中,该项目计划耗资300亿美元,历时30年。
达拉斯始建于1841年,最初是一个交易点,1871年正式建市,20世纪初成为石油工业和畜牧业的金融中心。
现在达拉斯已经成为所在区域的商业、运输、金融和工业中心。
城市面积约969平方公里,城市人口1070000(1998年)。
Global City Development Strategy and Planning of New Y ork City纽约的全球城市发展战略与规划王兰 刘刚 邱松 布伦特·D ·瑞安Wang Lan, Liu Gang, Qiu Song, Brent D. Ryan文章编号:1673-9493(2015)04-0018-06 中图分类号:TU984.712; F299.712 文献标识码:A经济全球化给世界大都市带来新的发展机会,并在很大程度上改变了城市的发展方式。
全球城市不仅是学术界描述某种城市的概念,更成为很多城市竞相追求的目标。
在试图成为全球城的城市中,产业结构均从工业为主导转变为依赖新兴的高附加值产业,例如金融、保险、房地产、文化娱乐和旅游业,并对发展战略和规划提出新的要求[1]。
全球城市发展策略可划分为:(1)形成跨国公司的全球或区域总部;(2)建立全球或区域的金融中心;(3)发展高度发达的生产性服务业(核心策略);(4)建设科技创新和文化创意基地;(5)打造国际性的旅游和会展目的地(支撑策略);(6)形成精英人才的汇聚地;(7)建构信息、通信、交通枢纽(基础策略)①。
本文将分析典型全球城市纽约在这三个维度和七个方面的现状和发展趋势,并剖析相关规划和政策,探讨全球城市发展战略和规划应对。
1 全球城市发展策略七个方面的现状及发展1.1 跨国公司的全球或区域总部纽约与伦敦并称世界顶级的全球城市,历来是世界跨国企业总部的所在地。
许多跨国企业都将全球或区域公司总部设在纽约,其中包括法律服务、广告业、时尚设计业和传媒业等生产性服务部类的企业。
在2014福布斯全球企业2000强中,有74家将总部设置在纽约,对比2005年的85家有所下降,但均因企业排名下滑出2 000,而不是因为总部另外选址。
同期伦敦的福布斯2000强企业总部数量从72减少为70。
在2014年的74家企业中,排名在1 000~2 000名的企业所占比例最大,为39%;其次为排名101~500名、501~1 000名和1~100名,分别占27%、23%和11%。

即:曼哈顿区(Manhattan)、布朗克斯区(Bronx)、布鲁克林区(Brooklyn)、皇后区(Queens)、斯塔腾岛(Staten Island)从2006年计算,纽约市占地面积785平方公里,人口821.4万,水域面积428.8平方公里,人口密度10464.2人/平方公里。
纽约是整个美国的金融经济中心、最大城市、港口和人口最多的城市,在四个传统“全球城市”中位居首位。
1626年之前,纽约地区是印第安人的居住地,直到荷兰人从印第安人手中买下曼哈顿岛辟为贸易站,将其称之为新阿姆斯特丹。
1664年英荷战争之后,被英国约克公爵占领,英国国王将其作为生日礼物送给约克公爵,从此正式更名为纽约。
美国独立战争之后,联邦政府曾有五年时间都是定都与纽约。
1789年,乔治.华盛顿就是在这个城市就任美国总统。
一年后,华盛顿特区被选定为美国首都,纽约则成为资本汇集的中心,纽约的金融机器将证明,它对这座城市的成功起到了举足轻重的作用。
纽约市位于西经74度,北纬40.43度,美国东海岸,濒临大西洋,全市平均海拔10米。
纽约还是联合国总部所在地,总部大厦坐落在曼哈顿岛东河河畔。
曼哈顿岛是纽约的核心,在五个区中面积最小,美国最大的500家公司中,有三分之一以上把总部设在曼哈顿。
