The design of streets, and the connections between streets of
different character, is the most important task for architects and
urbanists working in an urban context. Considered at two distinct
spatial scales - that of the individual street - the Street Section
- and the complex of city streets - the City Transect - Urban
Section identifies a range of generic street types and their
success or otherwise in responding to climatic, cultural,
traditional, morphological, social and economic well being. Using
comparative studies a profile of best practice in street and city
design is identified, showing methodologies in both the analysis
of, and design for, successful streets and public places -
place-making. In uniquely dealing with both the historic and
contemporary description and analysis of urban 'streets' around the
world, the work is of both academic and professional interest to
architects, urban planners and designers, highway engineers,
landscape and urban design advisers in both the public and private
sectors; students, amenity and civic societies, city authorities
and government agencies.
