The Sabarmati Riverfront Development project in Ahmedabad achieved several objectives: 1) It converted the polluted and neglected Sabarmati River into an asset by keeping it filled with water and eliminating pollution. 2) It created large civic spaces along the riverbanks for public recreation. 3) It established an institutional body to oversee planning and implementation. 4) It created a new landmark announcing Ahmedabad's arrival as a world-class city. However, some argue the project disrupted the river's natural ecology by straightening banks and reducing it to a narrow canal. There are also concerns about whether filling the river can be sustained given potential impacts of climate change.
Navi Mumbai was created in 1970 to decongest Mumbai and promote balanced regional development. It was planned by CIDCO according to principles of decentralization, self-sufficient townships, and single use zoning. Navi Mumbai consists of several nodes planned for different income groups with residential neighborhoods, industrial zones, and conservation areas. While growth has been slow, it accelerated in the 1990s with the Nhava Sheva port. Today Navi Mumbai stands as a structured, planned city contrasting with Mumbai's organic development.
The document summarizes the Cheong Gye Cheon Restoration Project in Seoul, South Korea. The project restored a historic stream that had been covered for decades due to sanitation issues. It removed an elevated highway and reopened the stream to create an urban green space. Some key challenges addressed included reducing traffic congestion and supporting neighboring businesses. The project was completed on schedule and budget in 2005 and led to improved environmental and economic outcomes for the downtown area.
The Sabarmati Riverfront project in Ahmedabad, India aims to reclaim the river banks as public space and restore the city's relationship with the river. It involves reducing the river width, constructing walls to prevent erosion and flooding, and interceptor sewers to prevent waste from flowing into the river. The project also resettled over 11,000 families from the river banks and rehabilitated vendors and laundries displaced by the project. Work began in 2005 and includes developing promenades, gardens, markets and other public amenities along the 9km stretch of the river passing through the city.
Kochi, also known as Cochin, is a major port city in Kerala, India located on the southwest coast. It developed due to flooding of the Periyar River, with early settlements in Mattanchery facing protected lagoons. Kochi was an important trading center for spices and maintained trade networks with Arab merchants. It was occupied by European powers like the Portuguese, Dutch, and British from the 16th century onwards. Over time, Kochi has expanded from its original settlements through urbanization and industrialization. Major developments include the construction of the Kochi port in 1916 and the expansion of residential and commercial areas.
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.

Planning Terminologies - PERI URBAN AREAS and SUBURBSJOSIN MATHEW
Peri-urban areas are located on the outskirts of urban areas and exhibit characteristics of both urban and rural areas. They have lower property values than urban areas but higher than rural areas. Peri-urban areas often grow horizontally and lack formal planning. Suburban areas are primarily residential and located near but not within urban areas. They have more affordable housing than city centers and are commonly associated with families. Both peri-urban and suburban areas act as transitions between urban and rural lands, with characteristics of both.

The first healing incident was of a leg problem of a passer-by who then spread the news about the ‘healing waters’. From then the area has experienced rapid growth into a small town. The economic distribution was, however, uneven as the springs attracted the rich individuals while the outskirts were left for the poor ones. The town attracted a large of investors who were excited by the thought of exploring new towns.
However, the trend did not hold for this town as the emergence of modern medicine reduced the influence of the spring. The town’s economy declined a bit. However, it picked up again in the 1920s when tourism came up and automobiles improved transportation systems. The town was then hit the great depression, and world war II. It, however, survived all the setbacks and attacked more tourists.

Urban sprawl refers to low-density development outside of city centers that is car-dependent and separated by function. It is characterized by leapfrog development, commercial and residential strips, and a lack of public space. Sprawl occurs due to factors like private land ownership, transportation infrastructure focused on cars, and zoning regulations. While sprawl provides benefits like more living space, it can also cause issues like traffic, environmental impacts, and socioeconomic differences between urban and suburban areas. The model of sprawl development in the United States has been driven by a market-led approach with less government intervention compared to China.

Asian cities in particular will see huge growth, with China and India accounting for many of the fastest growing large cities. While Asian cities aim to become global cities on par with New York and London, many face challenges in building sufficient infrastructure and maintaining livability. However, the cultural vibrancy and economic opportunities of Asian cities continue to draw large migrant populations. Urban planning will be crucial for cities to manage issues around housing, pollution, and overcrowding that often accompany rapid urbanization.
This document provides background information on a project to implement a cable propelled transit system in Caracas, Venezuela. The system links two informal settlements (barrios) of San Agustin to the city's public transportation network. It was designed by Urban-Think Tank and built for $18 million USD. The cable car system has 5 stations and transports around 3,000 passengers per hour in each direction. It provides a crucial connection for residents who previously had to walk 39 floors daily to access services. The project also included "plug-in" community buildings at stations to foster social and cultural programming.

This document provides an overview of the gentrification process in the Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh over the past 20-25 years. It discusses how Lawrenceville shifted from a blue-collar middle class community to a new middle class population of artists, young professionals, and "bohemians". The gentrification was driven by efforts from Lawrenceville officials and city planners to attract new businesses and residents by marketing affordable housing and business space. While gentrification models cannot be universally applied, examining the specific cultural and economic factors involved in Lawrenceville's transformation provides insights into urban development and population shifts in other Rust Belt cities experiencing similar changes.
This document provides background on the gentrification process in Lawrenceville, Pittsburgh over the past 20 years. It discusses how Lawrenceville shifted from a blue-collar, middle class neighborhood to a new middle class of artists, young professionals, and "bohemians". The gentrification was spurred by efforts from community officials and business elites to attract new businesses and residents through affordable housing and business rents. While gentrification studies often overgeneralize, examining specific communities like Lawrenceville in a qualitative way is important to understand all the unique factors involved in the process.
The document discusses urbanization in the context of Nepal. It defines urbanization and traces its history in Nepal. Some key points made include:

Global cities are major hubs for economic activity, culture, innovation, and authority in the modern world. They are characterized by large financial markets and corporate headquarters, top universities and cultural institutions, and high concentrations of skilled workers. However, global cities also face challenges like inequality, poverty, pollution, and lack of affordable housing. During the COVID-19 pandemic, global cities have seen reduced economic activity and human interaction as more people work remotely.
Urbanization in America increased dramatically between 1800 and 1900. In 1800, only 300,000 people lived in urban areas, but by 1900 that number had grown to 30 million. One driver of urban growth was increased agricultural productivity which freed up workers. Cities offered amenities like electricity, public transportation, and cultural institutions that rural areas lacked. However, rapid urbanization also increased problems like overcrowding, disease, pollution and crime.

EARLY COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT
• Multilateral trade agreements developed by the British colonial authorities offered
the confidence for new financial and corporate firms to locate and invest, and the
city’s Stock Exchange was established in 1875.
INDEPENDENCE, GROWTH AND DIVERSIFICATION
• The profits of the textile sector had already begun to be re-invested into a more
diversified economic base – including chemicals, pharmaceuticals, fertilizers, consumer
goods, engineering and car production.
• Development spread northwards along rail and road corridors, after the city’s 1948
plan recognized the need for managed development beyond the island.
• The 1964 Development Plan for Greater Bombay, and the 1973 Regional Plan, both
proposed the idea of a ‘mother city’ with satellite towns with the aim of encouraging
growth not just along the North-South axis but across the whole region through
decentralization.
1970S AND A NEW ECONOMIC MODEL
• From the 1970s onwards, Bombay’s textile industry went into decline and the city
entered a decisive period of de-industrialization.
• The loss of manufacturing employment left a big gap to fill for new service industries
and sectors being transformed by information technology. Formal, organized sectors,
in banking, finance, oil, ICT, transport, healthcare, communications and social services,
grew quickly.

M U M B A I
• Mumbai’s film industry — Bollywood — has been at the heart of the city’s
re-entry into globalization since the 1980s.
• In 1977, the Indian government began to welcome emigrants of Indian
descent back to the country, which began to pay dividends for the film
sector once India’s economy was re-introduced into the global market in
the late 1980s.
• Large corporations began to enter the Bombay cinema market from 1998
and professionalize the production process.
• As movie production has grown, there has been a boom in demand for
software engineering and animation outsourcing.
• Bollywood is now a $4 billion industry, with North America now
responsible for a quarter of the industry’s overseas box office revenues.
• The cluster may be small compared to Hollywood’s $50 billion-plus size,
but it employs nearly 200,000 people and has enormous potential to enter
new markets.

MUMBAI MOVING FORWARD
• Mumbai is now a much more
diversified metropolitan economy with
genuine competitive advantages.
• Its competitive sectors include not just
banking and insurance, but also
consumer goods and services,
electronics, healthcare, tourism, media
and entertainment, ICT, professional
services, transportation and logistics.
• The urbanized area of the region is
expected to more than double from
30 percent to 60 percent by 2050.

L O S A N G E L E S
• Los Angeles city and county began with a Colonial Mexican town that was
founded by 11 Mexican families that established a settlement in Southern
California that changed little in the three decades after 1848, when California
became part of the United States.
• Los Angeles had a strong economic base in farming, oil, tourism, real estate and
movies. It grew rapidly with many suburban areas inside and outside the city
limits.
• Hollywood made the city world-famous, and World War II brought new industry,
especially high-tech aircraft construction. Politically the city was moderately
conservative, with a weak labor union sector.
INDUSTRIAL EXPANSION AND GROWTH, 1870—1913
• In the 1870s, Los Angeles was still little more than a village of 5,000. By 1900,
there were over 100,000 occupants of the city.
HOLLYWOOD
• Hollywood has been synonymous worldwide with the film industry for over a
hundred years. It was incorporated as the City of Hollywood in 1903 but merged
into LA in 1910.
• In the 1900s movie makers from New York found the sunny, temperate weather
more suitable for year-round location shooting.
• It boomed into the cinematic heart of the United States, and has been the home
and workplace of actors, directors and singers that range from small and
independent to world-famous, leading to the development of related television
and music industries.
