Online resources: Summary: "Activating Urban Waterfronts shows how urban waterfronts can be designed, managed and used in ways that can make them more inclusive, lively and sustainable. The book draws on detailed examination of a diversity of waterfronts from cities across Europe, Australia and Asia, illustrating the challenges of connecting these waterfront precincts to the surrounding city and examining how well they actually provide connection to water. The book challenges conventional large scale, long-term approaches to waterfront redevelopment, presenting a broad re-thinking of the formats and processes through which urban redevelopment can happen. It examines a range of actions that transform and activate urban spaces, including informal appropriations, temporary interventions, co-design, creative programming of uses, and adaptive redevelopment of waterfronts over time. It will be of interest to anyone involved in the development and management of waterfront precincts, including entrepreneurs, the creative industries, community organizations, and, most importantly, ordinary users"--Summary: Postcolonial waterfronts : global imagery and local realities / Quentin Stevens, Marek Kozlowski and Norsidah Ujang -- Appropriating the spectacle / Quentin Stevens and Kim Dovey -- A temporary waterfront : prompting public engagement / Jacob Mikkelsen, Quentin Stevens, Catherine Hills and Florian 'Floyd' Mueller.PPN: PPN: 1755154984Package identifier: Produktsigel: BSZ-4-NLEBK-KAUB | ZDB-4-NLEBK
