The Central Business District A Basic Outline
The Central Business District A Basic OutlineHNurton The Central Business District (CBD) is the commercial and often cultural center of a city. It typically contains the highest concentration of shops, offices, cultural venues, and transportation infrastructure. Some of the main functions of the CBD are to serve as the primary shopping destination with the widest selection of stores, the location of most office jobs and businesses, and the hub of cultural and entertainment venues like theaters. However, the CBD also faces several problems like traffic congestion, pollution, high land costs limiting space, and urban decline as businesses and customers move to suburban areas. Cities attempt to address these issues through solutions such as ring roads, public transportation, pedestrianization, and redevelopment projects.

City beautiful and broadacre city
City beautiful and broadacre cityVikka Alix The City Beautiful movement arose in the late 19th century as an effort to introduce beautification and grandeur to cities through Neoclassical and Beaux-Arts architecture. Planners like Daniel Burnham wanted to replace railway depots with grand entrances, build attractive bridges, and develop boulevards to address traffic issues and house the wealthy. Though some aspects like Manila's American-style post office emerged in the Philippines, the movement declined by 1909 as being too expensive and impractical. Frank Lloyd Wright later proposed Broadacre City as a vision of low-density, automobile-centered suburbia where each family would own an acre, but it failed to account for large population growth and environmental impacts of urban sprawl
Land Use models
Land Use modelsAmy Efland The document summarizes several land use models:
1) Von Thunen's agricultural land use model from 1826 hypothesized concentric rings of agriculture around a central city, with different crops in each ring based on transport costs.
2) Burgess' concentric zone model from the 1920s depicted a city with five concentric zones including an inner central business district and successive zones of industry, working class residents, and commuters.
3) Hoyt's sector model answered limitations of the concentric zone model by depicting pie-shaped zones extending from the central business district along transport routes.
4) Harris and Ullman's multiple nuclei model from the 1940s recognized that the central business district

Urban Sprawl Canada
Urban Sprawl CanadaQatar Academy Urban sprawl is the growth of urban and suburban areas into rural land. This document discusses the issue of urban sprawl in Canada. It notes that while Canada has experienced only 5.04% urbanization overall, major Canadian cities have grown rapidly in population between 1992 and 1996. Urban sprawl has economic impacts like increased taxes and transportation costs. It also has social impacts such as providing housing and environmental impacts including increased air pollution and loss of rural land. The document proposes that rural areas be protected from urban sprawl through permitting requirements.
Central Business District (CBD)
Central Business District (CBD)Steven Heath The Central Business District (CBD) is the commercial, cultural, and transportation center of a city. It faces competition from internet shopping, retail parks, and huge out of town supermarkets and business parks. As a result, some CBDs have experienced decline with empty shops and offices moving to the outskirts of cities.

London Society - history of London planning
London Society - history of London planningDon Brown Roman London was first established in AD 43 under Emperor Claudius. It was rebuilt after being burned down by Boudicca in AD 60. The city expanded within defensive walls in the 2nd century AD. Throughout the medieval period and after the Great Fire of 1666, various plans were proposed to rebuild and improve London, including establishing building codes and minimum road widths. In the 18th-19th centuries, plans focused on highway improvements and public health. The 20th century saw plans for reducing overcrowding through population dispersal and new towns. More recent plans in the 2000s emphasized growth, densification and establishing London as a global city, though suburban intensification remains a challenge.

A Placemaking Vision for Downtown Detroit
A Placemaking Vision for Downtown DetroitDetroit Young Professionals (DYP) Detroit’s downtown is experiencing a renaissance unlike anything it has seen in decades. Largely vacant office buildings are filling up with new businesses and residents, the ground floors will soon welcome new shops and restaurants, and the streets and public spaces throughout the downtown are returning to life. Soon a new streetcar on Woodward Avenue, the M-1, will tie the downtown into the City of Detroit to the north, carrying residents, students and employees into the downtown and linking key destinations.
This report focuses on how the public spaces, and particularly the three major downtown parks, can be transformed, both in the long and short term — beginning summer 2013! — so that they support this exciting commercial and residential rebirth in the downtown, and also become destinations in their own right. To develop these ideas, Project For Public Spaces (PPS) brought into focus the concept of Placemaking to downtown Detroit and engaged the public in the Placemaking process. It is the intention of the stakeholder group to begin implementation of these ideas in order to create safe places for Detroit residents, workers and visitors.

Changing industrial location
Changing industrial locationNoeleen The document discusses how changes in locational factors have impacted the distribution of the British iron and steel industry over three phases from the 18th to 20th centuries. As resources depleted, the industry relocated based on new locational advantages - first to coalfields in the 19th century for fuel, then coastal areas in the 20th century for imported materials and transport access. These shifts led to economic decline in some inland areas but also opportunities for new industries and unemployment relief in affected regions.

Poverty and lack of opportunities in Mexico push many to migrate north, where there are more jobs and higher wages in the United States. However, illegal migration across the long border is a problem that costs both countries millions to address. While migrant workers benefit the US economy through their low-cost labor, they are also seen as drain and can cause social tensions. Remittances from migrants have become an important source of income for Mexico, but migration also creates imbalances like labor shortages and changes to family structure in Mexican towns.
