The document summarizes a student's thesis project on redeveloping the underutilized site of the former Safdarjung Airport in New Delhi. Some key points:
1) The site currently acts as a "pause" in the urban fabric but is located at a threshold between administrative, institutional, and residential areas.
2) Redeveloping the site could help address future development pressures from projects like the new Central Vista and Sarojini Nagar redevelopment.
3) The vision is to create a new mixed-use business district integrated with housing and institutions, utilizing the site's location and connections to transit. This would provide amenities for the growing population while catalyzing demands and minimizing urban sprawl.

Perception of Urban Space Shape of an Urban FormSomesh Siddharth
This document provides an overview of key concepts for understanding urban morphology, including:
- Perception of urban space is determined by factors like urban form, massing, and scale. Massing influences how space is perceived, and scale relates to human vision and modes of movement.
- Shape of an urban form is defined by characteristics like size, density, pattern, grain, texture, voids, and routes. Districts, activity structures, orientation, vistas, skylines, and details further shape the urban environment.
- Learning objectives are to understand how to perceive urban environments through determinants of urban form like space, mass, and scale. Key aspects that influence the perception of urban space are discussed.
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.

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.

Ancient Indian cities had sophisticated town planning systems based on Vedic texts. Towns were classified by size, from small villages to large capital cities, and by shape, including rectangular, square, circular and mystic symbolic designs. Larger cities had defined areas for temples, tanks, palaces, markets and residential zones for different castes. Streets were arranged in a grid pattern with widths specified in ancient units of measurement. Overall town planning principles focused on providing resources, security and social organization according to religious scripts.

This document provides information on land use and zoning in District 12 of Mysore, India. It outlines that:
- District 12 lies in the core of Mysore city and is predominantly residential, with major commercial areas along roads like JBL road.
- As of the existing scenario, residential land makes up 43.45% of the total developed area on the district, while commercial is 2.45%, industrial is 13.22%, and other uses like parks, public/semi-public, and transportation make up the remaining portions.
- The proposed land use plan for 2031 forecasts changes like a decrease in residential area but increases in commercial, parks/open spaces, and public/semi-
The document summarizes land use characteristics of Ward 34 in Kharagpur, West Bengal. It finds that 53% of land is used for residential purposes while 17% is vacant. Transportation accounts for 10% of land use. There is a lack of open recreational spaces and public/semi-public facilities compared to minimum standards. Informal settlements have developed near agricultural areas and along irrigation canals due to lack of basic services and flooding issues. Overall, land use planning in the ward could be improved by increasing open spaces and public amenities and addressing infrastructure gaps.

It also discusses criticisms of some of the concepts.
Gordon Cullen was an English urban designer and landscape architect known for developing the concept of townscape. He studied architecture and worked as a draughtsman and writer for the Architectural Review. Cullen produced influential editorials on planning theory and urban design that informed improvements in Britain during the 1950s and 1960s. He authored the influential book The Concise Townscape in 1961, which popularized his ideas and has been republished over 15 times. Cullen worked as a freelance consultant, advising cities on reconstruction and redevelopment plans. He received several honors over his career, including being appointed a CBE in 1978 for his contribution to architecture.
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.
Chandigarh is India's first planned city, designed by French architect Le Corbusier. It is a union territory serving as the joint capital of Punjab and Haryana. The city was planned on a grid system divided into sectors with strict architectural controls. Each sector is self-sufficient and includes amenities like schools and shops. The road network follows a "7Vs" system separating vehicles and pedestrians. Landscaping and open spaces were an important part of the original plan.

It is estimated 50% of the world’s population are living in the urban areas. By 2050, this will rise up to 70% and
already many cities across the world are struggling to cope with the pressure from the rapidly increasing
population. there are challenges like poverty, housing supply, pollution and poor infrastructures in the cities are
currently facing which is affecting the quality of the life in these cities.

“Eventually with the growing capacity of the city needs more land and the old Infrastructural
structures are mostly unattended or used as a filler services for the city.
“Urban lost spaces might not be just a vacant space or build form but can be a space
which has been limited to particular group and not been used in its full potential or
can be used into a more appropriate and better ways. “

The urban area has increased from a mere 43.25 sq. km in 1901 to 888.74 sq. km in 2001 while the density increased from
5501 persons per sq. km to 14521 persons per sq. km during the same period.
MPD 2021 with help of DSIIDC (Delhi State Industrial and
Infrastructure Development Corporation) has listed few
industries in different part of Delhi, ban & shifting of these
industries and mills are suggested.
The Ring rail project has been in quiet burial after the
Metro as with DMRC expanding its reach, the railways
seems to be reluctant to revive the line for public use. as
its ridership is completely going down over the years.
The power department has proposed shutting down the power plant due to
their high-power production cost and adverse effects on the environment.
Delhi over time has grown as a borderless city (Delhi Development Authority, Ministry of urban Development, 2014).
While some of these outward expansions (without densifying the existing areas) have been planned,
for instance pockets such as Narela and Rohini on the North and North-
West and Dwarka on the South-West, a substantial proportion of the
sprawl remains unplanned.

UPCOMMING DEVELOPMENT PRESSURE
within few years site is going through an unexpected pressure of upcoming development of
new central vista and new Sarojini nagar Due to its connection to the major road connecting
both the area site is acting as void in the urban fabric of the area.
New central vista project
A 3.2-km stretch in Delhi
featuring some of India’s
most iconic landmarks is
to be redeveloped,
angering historians and
conservationists who say
the move will rob the
country of its heritage and
valuable public space.
New Kidwai nagar
Located in the heart of the city with proximity to transit
nodes, it could have been a model for redevelopment of
existing areas in the future. But the East Kidwai Nagar
Redevelopment Project has become a major cause of
concern, as two key issues - traffic and water have been
ignored.
New Sarojini nagar
NBCC, which will be the implementing agency of the redevelopment plan, will construct 2.16
lakh square meter of social infrastructure, 5.09 lakh square meter of commercial space and
10,655 residential units.
A DEFINED CLASS OF USER
VVIP are presently utilizing the site as the helicopter transit to IGI airport and
Delhi flying club had flying training in some particular aircrafts.

ANALYSIS
The actual observed average peak speed on Shri. Aurobindo Marg is now is 26 km/hr. and off-peak is 27 km/hr.
-which is 50-60 per cent lower than the design speed (For Arterial Road a driving speed of 50-70 km/hr. as per
UTTIPEC) . During the 12 hours (from 08:00 am to 08:00 pm) of the day, around 75 per cent of the time. thus,
any proposal on site need to resolve the approach on the site first.
ANALYSIS
Areas near Safdarjung airport had maximum per capita green compared to other areas but
as we can see all the areas are either restricted green or private green thus scope of public
open space is less in these areas. whereas areas Rajpath, India Gate etc. still serve the city
as a city level public open space.

Strength
1. Interface of site with Sarojini nagar market along with Chanakyapuri DI & DII flats, sanjay lake
park, Nazaf khan tomb, Safdarjung tomb, Delhi race course and Nehru park forms a periphery
of major nodes around site creating it a central point of these activities.
2. Location of the with respect to the city is a threshold area between administration zone,
institutional zone and residential area of the city creating site a hotspot for its commercial and
social value.
3. Connection of the site with Sarojini nagar ring rail station, jorbagh mero station and
Safdarjung bus terminal, and direct interface with sri Aurobindo Marg and proximity of ring
roads makes site connections easy from the major parts of the city.
4. Existing vegetation and Kaushik nallah holds a strong emphasis over site and its relation with
surrounding from central ridge park to Yamuna bank.
Weakness
1. Due to nature of existing activity & particular group of users, site has been confined between
ring rail, Kaushik nallah and race course boundary wall, whereas shri Aurobindo Marg interface
also lacks in interacting with the site.
2. Site being in a threshold location of an administrations, institutional and public area still
formed as “pause” for the city. whereas areas of interface for site like Lodhi intuitional area,
Chanakyapuri, Sarojini nagar & Laxmi bai nagar has been blocked resulting many encroachment
areas along the site 3. Chanakyapuri DI & DII flats lacks to sustain the future development
pressure due to its low density and confined planning.
4. Presence of AAI
norms and air strip
height restriction
for building of
nearby area has
restricted to less
than 30m, while
site might have
scope for TOD due
to presence of
jorbagh metro
station.
15. M.Arch (Urban Design) – 2nd year 4th Semester Sushant School of Art and Architecture, Ansal University, Gurgaon
Opportunity
1. Due to variety of transit station and integrated land use site possess an opportunity for a
variety of public from a student, teacher, tourist, workers, bureaucrats, employees etc.
2.Kaushak nallah holds on strong opportunity to be used as a city level green corridor with
Bahaullah drain till Yamuna river improving pedestrian connection, city green spine and reviving
many underutilized spaces of the city.
3. With new development of new Sarojini nagar, new Kidwai nagar, new central vista, site
stands on a strong threshold of these development and thus having an opportunity become a
city public activity node because of its connection and location
4. Strong hold over the network, transit station proximity and land use site can be re-think for
many future projects of the city, especially for central vista redevelopment.
5. site location and social image generates opportunity for creating a new dimension for a
common development of institutional area, public area and administration area
Threats
1. A huge pause in the core of the city not only effects the financially but also adding up for the
urban sprawl of the city, as if the city expands it adds to travel time, expenses and
infrastructure.
2. As the site poses extensive opportunity for a public place which seems to be decline due to
activity effecting land use, land value etc. of the city.
3. Lodhi institutional area, Chanakyapuri and south Delhi campus are now detached with DI &
DII residential area and airport.
4. Underutilized Sarojini nagar ring rail station and DI -DII residence with an area of 270 acres
converting into site into urban lost spaces.

4.PUBLIC PLACE AND COLONIAL ROOTS
After independence this imperial symbol was transformed into a democratic public
space, which will lose its publicness with upcoming government building (boundary
wall, security etc.) pandering Lutyens’s vision, closer to colonial roots than a forward-
thinking democracy with global ambition.
5.COST JUSTIFICATION AND BENEFITS
A budget for 20,000cr. has been decided for this project
whereas demolition of existing structures has also proposed.
a) ministry of external affairs - completed in 2010
b) Indira Gandhi national centre of arts (I.G.N.C.A) - completed
in 2002
c) national museum - relocation in north & south block.
d) Vigyan Bhawan - relocation within new office blocks
e) prime minister residence & office - relocation at 7 Lok

as for now we are unable to understand the cost benefits
