Modern cities void socio-cultural, ecological and communal
characters of humankind for dwelling in the run of political and
economic competency. Heritage concerns and conservation attitudes
have also been faded in these converted modern cities. Historic
cities in some extent have retained the legacy of sustained urban
life and environment while development forces still suppress values
of historic urban characters and evidently the identity of place.
This undermines the compatibility towards spatial patterns of
historic settlement and loosens viscosity of historic city within
its boundary unless appropriate reconciliation of conservation and
development trends are available. This manuscript focuses on
amorphous relationships and integration potentials between urban
typologies and development context of new development and cultural
heritage areas for planners and conservationists. Along with
integrity aspects of historic urban landscape as a tool for
integrated urban conservation, this book illustrates the strategies
for urban spatial continuity, broadened heritage concepts and
conservation oriented development with participatory mechanism in
historic cities.
