tense relationship between infrastructure and its surroundings
becomes clearer to us every day. Infrastructure and urbanism seem
to belong to two different worlds. While infrastructure design

tramways, and railways on the surrounding landscape by applying a
new methodology that combines classical historical literature with
innovative mapping techniques. The book features an abundance of
previously unpublished historical illustrations of exceptional
