Changing urban eras in Canada: from the modern to the postmodern cityDesrochers, Michel 05 1900 (has links)
This thesis examines the production of space in Canadian cities since World War II. It is hypothesized that there has been a considerable shift in the city building process (encompassing the fields of planning, architecture and urban design) over the last two decades (1970-1990), and that new types of urban landscapes are being created, often very different than those built during the immediate post-war era (1950-1970). This shift is often described in academic literature as the move from the modern to the postmodern city. The approach adopted in the thesis is to examine the modern postmodern distinction from a design perspective. Academic literature in planning, geography and architecture, and observations from Canadian urban landscapes were sources used to gather information on the modern/postmodern distinction. These sources suggest that modern design principles produced functional landscapes (where form follows function), and that postmodern design principles are creating spaces that are both functional and "funky". Seven specific design principles are useful in describing the modern/postmodern distinction: the level of diversity, the level of exteriorization, the relation to nature, the level of decoration, the relation to urban history, the relation to urban context, and the scale of development. A case study of plans for downtown Vancouver since World War II was used to verify the findings from the literature and observations from Canadian urban landscapes. Two plans were chosen from the modern era (1956 and 1964 reports) and two from the postmodern era (1974 and 1991 reports). Four of the seven shifts in design principles were supported, and a further two were in evidence, though only in an implicit manner. The case study thus upholds the findings derived from the literature and observations from Canadian urban landscapes. It is suggested that the understanding of the shift from modern to postmodern design principles will help planners gain a better grasp on the current planning context, and hence be better suited to plan in an effective manner in today's "postmodern" world. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Community and Regional Planning (SCARP), School of / Graduate

The city as theme park and the theme park as city: amusement space, urban form, and cultural changeWarren, Stacy 05 1900 (has links)
Amusement space embodies hegemonic and Utopian dialogue
concerning urban conditions. Throughout the twentieth
century, two rival urban visions have reigned: the Coney
Island model, a chancy, participatory theatre where patrons
can confront head-on current conditions; and the Disney
model, a carefully planned setting where guests are made to
feel comfortable and secure.
The current ascendancy of the Disney model, evident in
urban and suburban landscapes increasingly shaped in the
Disney image, has attracted the attention -- and alarm --of
critics who interpret this trend as urban planning with a
'sinister twist.' A case study of Disney's involvement with
Seattle Center, originally the site of the 1962 World's Fair
and now Seattle's premier urban park, demonstrates, however,
that people actively challenge, negotiate, and reform the
Disney model to meet their needs by infusing the space with
traces of the rival Coney model. The suggestions Disney
made for renovation of Seattle Center sparked a city-wide
debate that centred on the roles of local participation,
cultural sensitivity, and aesthetic design in urban space;
Disney was found lacking on all accounts and eventually
rejected entirely. Seattle's experience with Disney
demonstrates that amusement space offers a rich terrain upon
which people can dream about, and implement, urban change. / Arts, Faculty of / Geography, Department of / Graduate

Muncie's new urban'hood : conceptualization of the Delaware County, Indiana fairgrounds as an infill project using principles derived from the new urbanist movement / Muncie's new urban neighborhoodMarshall, Stephen J. January 2000 (has links)
This project will address the environmental and social issues associated with conventional community planning and propose solutions to these through written documentation as well as through masterplan-scale concepts of a proposed mixed-use project using principles derived from the New Urbanist movement. The site chosen to display these conceptualizations is that of the existing Delaware County Fairgrounds located in Muncie, Indiana. Two concepts for a traditional neighborhood development shall be the graphic product of the project. The concepts shall be used in a comparison of the potential for New Urbanist design principles applied within the confines of existing zoning and development regulation and New Urbanist-derived design principles applied in an unrestricted setting. The concepts will be used to illustrate the potential of the site as a primarily residential space. / Department of Landscape Architecture
