Common Ground in a Liquid City. Matt Hern

Чтение книги онлайн.

СКАЧАТЬ places. Public space, and lots of it, is crucial but we have to realize that we need more than that. People move through public space—but common space is where they stop, what they learn to inhabit, and make their own.

      The re-energizing of downtown with residents, pedestrians, and bikes and the commitment to public space is critical, but there’s just no way to master-plan a great city nor can you make it happen just by throwing money at it. But you can prevent one from emerging by insisting on instrumentalizing public spaces and marionetting their uses.

      Great cities are built bit by enigmatic bit by a huge number of actors, not by planners or developers, whatever they might want to believe. Great cities have to be inherently democratic projects built in ways that can never be planned or predicted, as products of a vibrant everyday life. I frankly really like and respect Beasley, and think Living First has done plenty of good. As much success as Larry and his colleagues have had, and it is real success, there is a threshold of control that is very easy to cross and in many cases I think this city has leapt it. The contemporary rendition of urban growth is being played out a little differently here in Vancouver, but massive capital accumulation is hardly fettered, it’s just being asked to kick a little into the kitty.
