The document summarizes the concept and design of Letchworth Garden City, the world's first garden city located in Hertfordshire, England. It was inspired by Ebenezer Howard's book "Garden Cities of To-Morrow" and aimed to blend the benefits of town and country living. Some key points:
- Designed by Barry Parker and Raymond Unwin for 35,000 people across 5,000 acres, surrounded by a 1,300-acre greenbelt.
- Sought to address overcrowding and poverty in cities through planned towns with housing, industry, and preserved agricultural land.
- Had radial design with civic buildings in the central park and industries/housing in
Ebenezer Howard's 1898 publication "Garden Cities of Tomorrow" proposed a model for planned, self-contained communities that combined the advantages of urban and rural living. He envisioned cities of 32,000 residents with wide roads, separate zones for housing, industry and commerce, and abundant public parks integrated with the natural landscape. Howard intended these "garden cities" to remedy overcrowding and other problems facing large cities while preserving the benefits of both urban and rural life. The book served as a blueprint for the garden city movement and influenced planned communities around the world.
The document summarizes the history and principles of the Garden City movement, using Letchworth Garden City in England as a case study. It describes how Ebenezer Howard envisioned planned cities that combined the advantages of town and country living. Letchworth was the first Garden City, established in 1903. While it initially provided healthy housing and communities for workers, it later became dominated by the middle class. Today, The Heritage Foundation continues to steward the land based on Garden City principles of community ownership, high-quality design, and shared prosperity.

The document discusses the ideas behind and early examples of garden cities. It describes Ebenezer Howard's 1902 plan for garden cities, with greenbelts separating urban and rural areas. The first garden city was built in Letchworth, England in 1903 based on these principles. Other early examples included Wekerle in Budapest from 1908-1925 and Řevnice near Prague, with the goals of integrating urban and rural land use patterns while maintaining a compact urban form surrounded by green space.
The document discusses Ebenezer Howard's garden city concept, which aimed to address problems with both urban and rural living. The garden city model proposed self-contained communities of around 32,000 residents surrounded by greenbelt, with different zones including a central park. The concept emphasized strong communities, planned growth, and environmental quality. Howard published his ideas in 1898, and the garden city movement influenced planning around the world. Canberra, Australia is cited as one city that strongly embraced garden city principles in its design in the 1920s.
Ebenezer Howard proposed the concept of the Garden City in his 1898 book "Tomorrow: A Peaceful Path to Reform". He envisioned self-sufficient, planned towns surrounded by greenbelts that combined the benefits of both urban and rural living.

The document provides historical context on the development of Garden Cities and includes maps, photographs and descriptions of Letchworth Garden City.
Ebenezer Howard proposed the garden city concept as a solution to problems in late 19th century cities. He envisioned self-sufficient towns of around 30,000 people, surrounded by greenbelts, that combined the benefits of town and country living without their drawbacks. Letchworth Garden City, built in 1903, was the first to implement Howard's ideas of concentric design and separation of housing, industry and agriculture. The garden city movement aimed to reform urban planning and integrate people more with nature.

Ebenezer Howard proposed the garden city theory as a response to overcrowding and congestion in cities during the Industrial Revolution. His plan called for the creation of small, planned cities that combined urban amenities with access to nature. Key elements included purchasing a large area of land, planning a compact circular or hexagonal town surrounded by a rural greenbelt, and using revenue from rising land values to benefit the community. Howard envisioned a population of around 30,000 living in the garden city, with only a fraction of the land developed and the rest used for agriculture and recreation.

This document provides an overview of several eminent town planners and their key concepts and contributions to the field of town planning. It discusses town planners such as Ebenezer Howard and his Garden City concept; Patrick Geddes and his emphasis on conducting surveys before developing plans; Le Corbusier and his view of cities as living organisms; Patrick Abercrombie and his focus on regional planning; Clarence Stein and the Neighborhood Unit concept; and H.K. Mewada and P.M. Apte who planned the city of Gandhinagar. It also summarizes the main ideas and projects of several other influential town planners.
The document summarizes the garden city movement, which was initiated in 1898 by Ebenezer Howard in the UK. Garden cities were intended to be self-contained communities surrounded by greenbelts with proportionate areas of residences, industry, and agriculture. Two early examples are Letchworth Garden City and Welwyn Garden City, which were planned with concentric patterns, open spaces, and radial boulevards extending from a central area. The garden city model emphasized balanced development, connectivity between towns and countryside, and public ownership of land.
The document discusses Arturo Soria's 19th century proposal for a "linear city" model in Madrid intended to address problems of overpopulation, transport, and sanitation. Soria's design integrated nature into the city with rows of trees and houses having gardens. It included wider streets, detached houses, and green spaces. The linear city was surrounded by nature with a central area for services. While the project began construction, economic difficulties and rising land costs prevented its full realization, though some elements like a main street remain today in northern Madrid.
This presentation will provides you how the garden cities by Ebenezer were planned and designed how important the environment is and also the ideas of Ebenezer Howard.

In an attempt to create modern neighborhoods without the need of the defensive system of the town walls, which no longer offered protection in advanced warfare techniques.
Le Corbusier designed the unrealized Radiant City project in 1930 which sought to improve urban living standards. The design had strict zoning with segregated areas for housing, business, and industry connected by underground transit. Housing would be in tall, standardized residential towers set amongst green spaces. Though never built, the Radiant City influenced many later projects seeking efficient urban planning and design through order and separation of functions.
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

Clarence Perry was an early 20th century American planner who developed the concept of the neighborhood unit. The neighborhood unit aimed to design self-contained residential areas that promoted community and protected residents from industrial areas and traffic. Key elements included centering the neighborhood around an elementary school, placing arterial streets on the perimeter, and dedicating 10% of land to parks and open space. The ideal neighborhood unit size was 5,000-6,000 people and 160 acres to allow children to walk half a mile to school and residents to access local services. Neighborhood planning principles focused on size, boundaries, internal streets, land use mix, and locating community facilities to encourage social interaction.
Sir Ebenezer Howard was a pioneer of town planning who developed the concept of the garden city. He was influenced by the overcrowding and poor conditions he witnessed in cities like London and Chicago. Howard proposed that towns and countryside each had benefits and drawbacks, but that a new type of settlement combining their advantages could be created. This was the garden city - a self-contained community surrounded by greenbelt land, with proportionate areas for housing, industry and agriculture. The first examples of garden cities were Letchworth and Welwyn, which aimed to provide the benefits of both urban and rural living.

The document outlines the scope of work and responsibilities of a town planner. It discusses the general scope of work such as formulating plans and analyzing proposed communities and facilities. It also describes the tasks involved in different stages of construction such as finding and surveying sites, setting goals and objectives, and analyzing issues. Finally, it mentions the types of drawings required like zoning maps, site plans, transportation plans, and master plans.
This document provides an overview of a master plan for Bangalore, India. A master plan is a long-term blueprint that guides development over 10-20 years by setting public policies on land use and infrastructure. The Bangalore plan divides the city into five belts based on development levels and proposes land use zones. It analyzes factors like population, economy, transportation and spatial growth to develop a vision and strategies to manage growth.
The document discusses various aspects of curriculum planning including master rotation plans, course plans, and unit plans. A master rotation plan shows how students will rotate through various clinical and community placements over time, ensuring all students receive equal experiences. Course plans detail the organization of a particular course, including objectives, content, teaching methods, learning activities, and evaluation. Unit plans describe individual instructional units within a course. Effective planning at each of these levels is important to ensure coherence and coordination across the curriculum.
Ebenezer Howard's 1898 work contrasted rural and urban life, proposing "Garden Cities" that incorporated the best of both, such as Letchworth (1903) and Welwyn Garden City (1920). While well-intentioned, garden cities often functioned merely as dormitories for larger cities and did not fully achieve their egalitarian vision. Bid rent theory shows how much different sectors are willing to pay for land in various locations, with retail highest in the city center and residential uses on the outskirts. Variations of this model account for factors like transportation intersections and suburban centers.
The document discusses the garden city movement initiated by Ebenezer Howard in 1898 in the UK. The key aspects are:
1) Garden cities were self-contained communities surrounded by greenbelts with proportionate areas of residences, industry, and agriculture to capture benefits of the countryside and city while avoiding disadvantages of both.
2) Two early garden cities built according to Howard's model were Letchworth and Welwyn near London.
3) The garden city concept aimed to provide a high quality of life through incorporating green spaces, limiting city size, and balancing town and country living.
Garden cities were intended to be planned, self-contained communities surrounded by "greenbelts", containing proportionate areas of residences, industry, and agriculture.
The garden city introduced the use of green belts that have served many uses including the preservation of agricultural and rural life, nature and heritage conservation, recreation, pollution minimization, and growth management.
Garden city tradition endowed urban planning with a social and community dimensions.
The garden city idea however, showed how both industrial estates and collective retailing spaces could be used within a comprehensive planning approach to serve public purposes.
The document discusses Ebenezer Howard's garden city movement, which proposed the development of self-contained communities surrounded by greenbelts containing proportionate areas of residences, industry, and agriculture. Howard established the concepts in his 1898 book, and the first garden cities - Letchworth and Welwyn - were built in Hertfordshire, England in the early 1900s based on his principles of limiting town size, incorporating amenities and green spaces, and defining the relationship between towns and their surrounding agricultural land. The garden city model aimed to provide the benefits of both rural and urban living in a planned environment.
Neighborhood and their concepts, garden city and satellite Town-3.pdfBilalAhmad558491
The document discusses neighborhood unit planning, satellite towns, and garden cities as concepts for urban planning. It defines each concept and compares satellite towns and garden cities.
The key points are:
1. Neighborhood unit planning aims to create self-contained residential areas centered around schools, parks, and shops that minimize traffic hazards for pedestrians.
2. Satellite towns are residential areas located outside a parent city that provide housing but remain dependent on the parent city for services and employment.
3. Garden cities are self-contained, planned communities surrounded by greenbelts that balance residential, industrial, and agricultural land uses within a limited population size.
4. Compared to satellite towns, garden cities are
Urban planning aims to provide an organized spatial structure for activities and land uses. Ebenezer Howard proposed the "Garden City" concept with self-contained towns of 32,000 residents surrounded by greenbelts. Le Corbusier envisioned high-density "Radiant Cities" with segregated zones for housing, work, and recreation connected by transportation infrastructure. Both aimed to address issues of overcrowding and pollution in industrial cities by proposing new models for urban form and design.
Urban planning theories have evolved over time in response to changes in populations, economies, and technologies. Early theories focused on orderly city layouts with separate zones. Hippodamus proposed dividing cities into public and private areas with grids. Howard's Garden Cities aimed to blend urban and rural advantages. Geddes emphasized relationships between people and environments. Later, modernist planners like Le Corbusier proposed high-density "Radiant Cities." Burgess' concentric zone model depicted socio-economic groups arranged in circles. Perry's neighborhood unit promoted walkable communities. Today, multiple nuclei and sector theories recognize dispersed growth around transportation networks.
The document discusses the history and concepts of town planning. It begins with definitions of town planning as ordering land use and development to achieve efficiency, convenience and beauty. It describes Ebenezer Howard's garden city concept from 1898 as aiming to combine benefits of town and country living. Key aspects included limited size, greenbelt, and social/economic planning. Letchworth (1903) was among the first garden cities applied based on these principles. Patrick Geddes and Clarence Perry also contributed new concepts, emphasizing regional surveys and neighborhood units. Radburn, New Jersey (1928) applied principles like separating vehicles and pedestrians.
The document discusses the relationship between nature and cities in modernity. It explores how modernism constructed two types of nature - evil/bad nature and divine/good nature. It also discusses two constructions of cities - as cancers draining resources, and as assets with environmental and cultural benefits. The document then examines how 19th century industrial cities struggled with pollution and public health issues. It outlines four main approaches modernist planning used to resolve the nature/city relationship: controlling bad nature in cities, taking cities into nature through urban utopias, bringing good nature into cities, and taking city dwellers into nature.
Ebenezer Howard proposed the Garden City movement to address problems with cities and rural life. He envisioned self-sufficient, planned communities that blended the best of urban and rural living. His influential book Tomorrow: A Peaceful Path to Real Reform outlined a model garden city of 32,000 residents surrounded by a greenbelt. The first realizations were Letchworth Garden City in 1903 and Welwyn Garden City in 1920, which aimed to apply Howard's principles of balanced communities integrated with nature.
Patrick Geddes was a Scottish biologist, sociologist, geographer, philanthropist and pioneering town planner known as the "Father of Modern Town Planning". He introduced concepts like the "region" in architecture and planning. Geddes believed that a region influences and is influenced by the cities within it, represented by his "Geddian Trio" of activity, work, and place. He coined the term "conurbation" to describe merged cities and regions influenced by new transportation technologies. Some of Geddes' plans included the master plan for Tel Aviv which emphasized pedestrians, greenery, and civic spaces. He also developed the "constellation theory" of regional planning around groupings of interconnected cities.
Sir Ebenezer Howard was influential in founding the garden city movement in the late 19th century. He published "Garden Cities of To-morrow" in 1898, which outlined his vision for planned, self-contained communities that blended the best aspects of urban and rural living. The book proposed towns surrounded by greenbelts that would have industry, agriculture, and housing integrated together in a way to improve lives. The first garden cities realized based on Howard's principles were Letchworth and Welwyn in England in the early 1900s.

Urban planning has its origins in ancient civilizations like Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro which had deliberately planned cities. In classical times, Greek philosophers like Hippodamus laid out cities in orthogonal grids. During medieval times, many new towns were built in Europe to gain power. In the 19th century, overcrowded industrial cities led to new ideas like Ebenezer Howard's Garden Cities which proposed self-sufficient towns surrounded by greenbelts. In the 20th century, planners like Le Corbusier proposed concepts like the Radiant City with high density apartment blocks separated by open spaces. Chandigarh was influenced by these ideas and became a model new town in post-colonial India
The document provides information about various modern era town planners like Sir Patrick Geddes, Sir Ebenezer Howard, Clarence Stein, Sir Patrick Abercrombie, and Le Corbusier.

1. Early humans were hunter-gatherers but began transitioning to sedentary agriculture and permanent settlements starting 10,000 years ago in places like Catal Huyuk in Turkey and Jericho in Jordan.
2. The development of cities and civilizations was driven by favorable conditions for domesticating plants and animals. This led to more complex societies with specialized labor.
3. The Industrial Revolution in Britain in the late 1700s increased urbanization as manufacturing grew and people migrated to cities for work, leading to population booms and the rise of the first industrial cities like Manchester.
What future for high streets in historic cities? This presentation for RSA Fellows in northwest England and the Cheshire Society of Architects examines the links between high streets, heritage, belonging and possible economic futures.
C.A Doxiadis was a Greek architect and town planner known for developing the theory of Ekistics and designing the new capital city of Islamabad in Pakistan. Some key points of his work:
- He founded the science of Ekistics to study human settlements of all scales, from villages to cities to regions, and how they evolve over time. This aimed to build optimized cities for humans.
- His theory analyzed factors like geography, growth, organization, and internal/external structures that influence human settlements. It also established a hierarchy of rural villages up to larger urban areas.
- Doxiadis designed Islamabad as the new capital of Pakistan in the 1950s based on Ekistic principles
The document discusses satellite towns and Ebenezer Howard's garden city movement. It defines satellite towns as towns that are under the influence of a larger parent city but have their own identity. Features of satellite towns include local government and connections to the parent city via transportation. Howard's garden city movement proposed limiting city sizes and incorporating greenbelts, agriculture, and industry into planned, self-contained communities surrounded by nature. Letchworth and Welwyn Garden City in the UK were early examples built using Howard's garden city principles.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...Joshua Orris
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.
