Announced as a ‘step change’ in urban policy to overcome problems of low demand and abandonment experienced most acutely in nine former industrial towns and cities in the north and midlands of England, the Sustainable Communities Plan (SCP) (ODPM, 2003a) involves the demolition and relocation of mainly white, working class inner-urban communities. This thesis focuses on a year long moment in the process of regeneration in one such HMRP in North East England, known as ‘Bridging NewcastleGateshead’ (BNG) and draws from rich, detailed ethnographic case studies of three former industrial communities. Originally, the thesis draws together critical engagements with the concepts of space, governance, community, sustainability and materiality to develop a relational understanding of urban regeneration. Starting with an understanding of ‘spaces of regeneration’ as spaces in the process of becoming this perspective moves beyond normative, prescriptive understandings of spaces as static and contained and subject to the process of spatial regulation from above i.e. power over. Rather than a straightforward process of spatial regulation to transform people and places, the process of regeneration involves uncertainties, negotiations, contestations and emotions between the multiple social, material, economic and environmental networks. The thesis has drawn together urban theories and empirical evidence (including historical and contemporary policy analysis as well as a range of qualitative methods) to illustrate the relational transformation of people and places. Governmentality provides the main conceptual framework. This leads to an in-depth exploration of the rationalities and technologies of urban regeneration from three perspectives in the empirical chapters - governing communities, demolishing communities and transforming communities.

There is now an extensive literature covering urban tourism and dockland regeneration, but visitors' perceptions of urban waterfront destinations and their on-site behaviour and d experience remain largely unexplored. Additionally, whilst there is now a substantial body of literature relating to tourism's economic impact at the macro level, less is known about tourism expenditure at destination and sub-destination levels.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1965 Description An account of the resource The origins of this volume lie in a period of three years' attachment to the Geography Department of the University of Durham as a reasearch student. Of this period a total of about fourteen months was spent carrying out field work and collecting data in Iran, whilst the remainder of the time was spent in acquiring an elementary knowledge of the Persian language, in learning some basic statistical techniques, and in analysing the data and writing up the results. The choice of the field of research was made on the basis of three main interests - urban studies, the application of quantitative techniques to geography, and the Middle East as a region, fostered by training in Durham both as a research student and an undergraduate. More specifically the subject was chosen as a contribution to what appears to be a relatively neglected field of urban studies - that is, the study of cities outside Europe and North America, and the relationship between urbanisation and socio-economic development in underdeveloped areas. It would appear that by far the greater part of urban research has been directed at cities of one particular culture area (Europe and North America) and both research techniques and generalisation about the nature of cities are as a result limited in scope by this. Yet 55% to 60% of the world's "urban" population lives in cities outside Europe and north America, so that the consideration of such cities is clearly of some importance.

Not only has the right formula to be found of how to satisy the escalating demand, both in terms of quantity and quality, but also of where to locate such housing. The New Cities and Settlements in the desert seem to be the only option left in order to combat the continuous loss of the agricultural land to the expanding existing urban centres. The New Cities however, initiated in the late 70's, failed to attract the low income groups of settlers. This was mainly due to the lack of affordable housing for such groups. Whilst thousands of finished residential units remain unoccupied, the workers employed in some of the New Cities' factories are commuting on a daily basis to and from the closest urban or agricultural centres near Cairo. This research argues that aided self-help and user interventions in general could offer an appropriate answer. When most of the New Cities and Settlements were planned many self-help schemes were proposed but were frequently abandoned in favour of the conventional medium rise mass housing approach. Little or no research has been carried out to evaluate the very few schemes which were implemented. The decision to cancel self-help schemes was entirely political and seemed to stem from the governments fear of the creation of sub-standard and poor image built environments within the New Cities. The research based its defence on projects which allow user interventions and participation in two Case Studies. The first concerns multi-storey extensions informally built by the residents in 5 storey walk-up public housing flats located in Heiwan and El Tebeen. The second deals with a core housing project located in The Tenth of Ramadan, one of the New Cities. The multi-storey extensions of Helwan and El Tebeen provided clear . evidence on the potentialities and capabilities of low income users working and living in positive and supportive circumstances. The Tenth of Ramadan Core Housing Scheme provides explicit and substantiated proof of the benefits of self-help and user intervention approaches, in contrast to the views of the Government and Local Authority who condemn the process as negative development leading to a lowering of standards and poor quality environments. The research argues that self-help has succeeded where the mass housing approach has failed.The involvement of the household and community group are seen as integral decison makers in the planning and design process. The user's efforts to transform and consolidate their housing requirements should be appreciated and encouraged and to achieve this the research concludes that a review of management and design procedures would be the first step towards achieving this aim.

Elle s'appuie sur la comparaison de trois quartiers européens et vise ainsi à comprendre l'origine de ce phénomène européen : la gestion des quartiers périphériques par la mise en place de dispositifs participatifs. Après avoir démontré qu'il existe bien une unité de ces expériences malgré leurs formes diverses ― projets opérationnels, instances discursives ― je les mets en regard des mouvements sociaux, de l'après-guerre puis de la fin du XIXème siècle. Il apparaît que des résonances existent, tant dans les discours des acteurs que des types de pratiques : celles-ci sont spécifiques à chaque territoire, à chaque État-nation. Néanmoins ces pratiques se rejoignent par l'exigence démocratique qu'elles portent et qui est particulièrement vive dans ces territoires périphériques. J'aborde ensuite la question de cette relation entre démocratie participative et territoire par l'examen du rôle de l'altérité dans les expériences participatives : déclencheur à l'échelon micro-local, il est aussi facteur de ciblage à l'échelon macro-local. Ce ciblage conduit à la mise en place de politiques de gestion des quartiers périphériques qui s'accompagnent de la mise en place de dispositifs participatifs. L'examen des conflits micro-locaux générés par des pratiques considérées comme « autres » par les participants aux expériences participatives conduit à comprendre en quoi l'échelle du quartier, et tout particulièrement de l'espace intermédiaire, est privilégiée pour mettre en oeuvre la démocratie participative. Enfin, la démocratie participative est remise en perspective de son acception courante, en tant que méthodologie accompagnant des politiques de cohésion sociale ou de gestion des quartiers périphériques : il s'agit alors de soupeser les attendus de telles politiques, et de voir en quoi elles sont compatibles avec les exigences de la démocratie participative.

The hypothesis is that there is a relationship between the two, and that the alteration of the street network with reunification has precipitated a spatial reorganisation of office rents. The identification of an independent spatial variable that can be used to account for the pattern of rent is a key problem in office rent studies. Unlike previously used distances to a point in the Central Business District (CBD) or other destinations, this study uses ‘space syntax’ measures of the morphology of the street network. ‘Global integration’ is used to measure the role of each street within the entire configuration, revealing fundamental changes in the spatial structure of Berlin both with the city’s historical development and with reunification. Whereas most previous office rent studies have used yearly average asking rents per building for a short period, a sample of 412 achieved rents over a 7 year period was collected to control for the influence of lease provisions and the effect of market change over time on rents. The spatial pattern of ‘location rents’ is investigated through visual representations using GIS. Significant variation from street to street and a marked rise from periphery to centre are found. Unlike previous studies, spatial changes over time were investigated: a marked shift in the pattern of rents from West Berlin to the East has occurred in the 7 years following reunification. This shift corresponds to the changing spatial structure of the city revealed in the spatial analysis. Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) is used to quantify the importance of spatial variables (space syntax measures) in rent determination but also taking non-spatial variables (time, building quality, and lease provisions) into account. The main findings are that rents in West Berlin can be explained by the date of lease commencement (falling with the recession) and the global spatial integration as it was in divided Berlin. In East Berlin the global integration pattern of reunified Berlin is most important and secondly the date of lease commencement. Other variables such as floorspace and lease length are not found to have statistical significance. It is concluded that the change in Berlin’s spatial structure that occurred with reunification led to a spatial reorganisation of prime office rents from the West Berlin CBD into the former East Berlin district of Mitte. It is argued that ‘location value’ will be an emergent property of any spatial system because a differentiated potential for co-presence is created.

Using previously unpublished material from the 1990-1995 excavations at Birka, in Sweden, resulting from the author's work on the excavation report from the Birka Project, it provides an analysis of the development, and character of this Viking Age settlement. This forms the basis for an assessment of the nature of various contemporary non-rural settlements in Scandinavia, and thus of the context of the settlement at Birka. The history and archaeology of the central places of the northern eastern Anglo-Saxon kingdoms are then considered, with an examination of York forming the core of the second part of the thesis. The physical and socio-economic transformation of these settlements at the end of the ninth century is discussed, and the resultant tenth century patterns compared with the political and socio-economic patterns revealed in the contemporary and earlier Scandinavian settlements. The thesis concludes with an examination of the similarities and differences between the Early Mediaeval settlements of Scandinavia and the Danelaw, and considers which can be recognised as 'towns'. It assesses the nature of the Scandinavian impact upon the development of urban settlements in the North and East of England, and the degree to which this elucidates the socio-politics of urban development within the Scandinavian world.

Ainsi en est-il des favelas qui, à travers le clivage qui les oppose à la ville formelle, légale, constituent l’un des symboles de la fragmentation des villes brésiliennes. Cette vision dualiste de la ville, ancrée depuis toujours dans l’imaginaire des citadins brésiliens, masque une réalité urbaine complexe qui reste encore mal appréhendée.

Au-delà des apparences, l’exploration de ces espaces et de la vie quotidienne de leurs habitants montrent des signes évidents d’une intégration à la ville, qui reste toutefois empreinte, à l’image de la société brésilienne, d’une profonde inégalité.

Elle s’appuie sur un travail de terrain constitué principalement d’une monographie du cas lyonnais que nous avons enrichie à partir d’autres exemples urbains (Marseille, Lille, Bordeaux, Nice, Saint-Étienne, Villeurbanne). Nos sources sont principalement constituées de fonds d’archives municipaux, mais également nationaux (des ministères concernés), internationaux (SdN, ONU) et d’autres documents de première main (archives privées et consulaires, périodiques). Notre travail se structure autour de deux grandes questions concernant l’analyse de l’action publique urbaine : la construction et l’identification d’un problème public ; la régulation d’un secteur d’intervention publique. Ces deux niveaux d’analyse sont appréhendés au niveau des scènes locales, nationales ou transnationales, de discussion des problèmes automobiles. En questionnant la structuration des pouvoirs urbains, on peut mettre en évidence l’existence d’un gouvernement par commissions, rassemblant des institutions et des acteurs divers et éclatés, et concourant à une co-production de l’expertise et de l’action publique en matière de circulation urbaine. Cette étude sur un temps long permet de montrer que, dans ce secteur, des formes de « gouvernance » articulant intérêts privés et enjeux publics ont émergé progressivement et se sont structurés au moment même où l’automobile devenait un enjeu urbain et un problème public central pour les villes du XX° siècle. Le gouvernement de la circulation urbaine constitue un excellent observatoire de la dynamique de constitution des pouvoirs urbains autour de dispositifs d’action publique pluralistes et largement participatifs qui renvoient au final à des débats situés au cœur même de la science politique contemporaine (pluralisme, gouvernance, réseaux, interfaces public/privé, démocratie participative...).

Although Rio lost its status as the political capital of Brazil after nearly 200 years, extensive urban renewal campaigns to modernize the city were employed by numerous politicians, planners, architects, artists, and ordinary residents to help restore Rio's position as Brazil's "true" capital city. This dissertation examines these urban renewal efforts in Guanabara from 1960 to 1975 - a period when Rio de Janeiro experienced its largest period of population and spatial growth. Whereas many of the urban renewal campaigns and projects for development prior to 1945 were intended to beautify, embellish, and "civilize" the city, the projects of the 1960s and 1970s were highly technical and revolved around integrating the automobile into the urban landscape. The measures of investment and resources devoted to modernizing and reforming the city during the Guanabara period were unprecedented for Rio de Janeiro, consequently resulting in significant spatial, social, cultural, and economic reorganization of the city. "Tunnel Vision: Urban Renewal in Rio de Janeiro, 1960-1975" examines specific projects of urban renewal such as tunnels (Rebouças and Santa Bárbara), expressways, parks (Aterro do Flamengo), subways, overpasses, and beaches while also exploring the technocratic approach to urban planning which was demonstrated through attitudes and principles that often marginalized "non-expert" participation in reforming the city. Using diverse primary sources such as government and urban planning documents, as well as neighborhood association materials, this dissertation also considers broader historical issues such as the politics and culture of military regimes, as well as questions related to the built environment, comparative planning cultures, space, class, race, ethnicity, and popular culture. Furthermore, this study also argues that the politics and culture of urban planning in Rio de Janeiro during the Guanabara period mirrored many of the same political, cultural, and social tensions that existed throughout Brazil and Latin America before and after the Brazilian military coup of 1964.

Supervisor Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Zakarya, Nahro Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2005 Description An account of the resource Over the last four decades, cities - especially those in the developing world - have been expanding exponentially. With this growth in 'urbanization' and as a consequence of a rise in urban poverty, the issue of urban problems is now a topic of international importance. It is estimated that the world's urban population will grow from 2.86 billion in 2000 to 4.98 billion by 2030 (UN-Habitat, 2003). Of this, nearly two billion people are currently living in urban areas of developingcountries and over half live below the poverty line. Thus together with this surge in the urban population growth and the pressures associated with it we are likely to see what I like to term the 'urbanization of poverty'. The physical and spatial manifestation of increasing urban poverty and intra-city inequality can be characterised by the slum. However, according to UN Habitat, there is no clear and internationally recognized operational definition of the slum. 'Other notions were used instead to document the existence of slums: percentage of population living in unauthorized settlements, the durability, equality and size of housing units, the level of basic services (...). While slum dwellers in the developed world constitute 6 % of the urban population, in developing countries they account for a staggering 42% of the urban populace' (UN-Habitat, 2003:6). Five components reflect conditions that characterise slums: insecure status; inadequate access to safe water; inadequate access to sanitation and other infrastructure; poor structural quality of housing; overcrowded (Ibid). The case study in this book reveals some of these components and instead of using the term 'slum', I will be using the term 'unauthorized settlement'. This will be defined in this work as a residential area, which has developed without permission from the concerned authorities to build. Settlers in Duelha are in fact experimenting with a semi-legal status: they either own a parcel of agricultural land which they put to use as a housing unit; or they rent it from private owners. In both case, the use of the land as residential area is occurring without permission from the Syrian authorities. This study focuses in general on urban conditions in Syria and in particular on the livelihoods of people living in one of the unauthorized settlement slums called Duelha in the capital city Damascus. Over the years, Damascus has attracted a large number of migrants from other cities and rural areas. According to the Syrian historian Jarjur Tawfik (1980), the most prominent causes of Syrian migration towards Damascus consisted of Palestinian refugees flows, the pull of educational opportunities, industrial and commercial activities, and the push of a high birth rate in rural areas and socio-economic causes such as widespread poverty. In order to achieve the study objectives, I lived and worked in this unauthorized settlement and observed the daily life of the local community. I focused specifically on households and courtyards, the main units of the social system. Within these social units, I traced the livelihood strategies that people adopt and how they succeed in managing their daily life in a new habitat. In contrast with most of the previous studies on Damascus, which are based mainly on statistical and census data, this study is to my knowledge the first to be carried out which gives a picture of a 'living' slum, or the daily struggle of a community living in an unauthorized settlement. It shows how individuals and families create and build their livelihood.

The study of the people of al-Qayrawän, which is largely dependant on the study of the Tabagat, has been carried out with a view to discovering as much as possible about how people lived and earned their livelihood. Against this background the question of the numerical size of the population has, been considered. Work on this dissertation has involved spending inter alia four months in North Africa in 1974. This took me to Egypt, Tunisia, and Morocco. Most of that time was - spent in Tunisia, where on the one hand I was looking for the manuscripts relevant to al-Qayrawän, and on the other collecting material towards helping to establish the early mediaeval plan of al-Qayrawän. At the same time I made the facsimiles and, took the photographs for the collection of the monumental inscriptions which constitute part of the material for this work. During my stay in al-Qayrawän and Tunis I tried to meet every scholar connected with the study of al-Qayrawän, although the subject of this work is not one which has so far attracted attention. I visited most of the relevant public and some of the private libraries containing manuscripts. The Head of Jam'iyyat Siyänat Äthdr al-Qayrawän, Mr Ibrahim Shabbuh, was kind enough to show me the stages reached in the several excavations in al-Qayrawän, and the finds that have been unearthed. In Rabat, Morocco I visited both the public library (al-Khizänah al-'Ammah) and the Royal Library (al-Maktabah al-Malakiyyah), which both contain thousands of mediaeval manuscripts. In England I have paid frequent visits to the Oriental Room of the British Library and the Bodleian Library in Oxford. Towards the end of 1976, when my work was nearing a conclusion, I heard of some Ibadite manuscripts preserved in the Isle of Jerbah in Tunisia. I tried to obtain copies of these by different means but all failed. I tried to use the good offices of the Saudi Arabian Cultural Bureau in London to obtain these copies, but in vain, and finally I decided to go to Jerbah myself. After a brief stay in Tunis (February 1977) I continued to Jerbah. The Mashä'ikh of the Ibadites in the Island were very kind and very helpful, but one of the important manuscripts I was seeking had been taken to Libya. I therefore made a further journey to Tripoli in order to photocopy this manuscript, travelling thereafter to al-Qayrawän for a week where I checked several points which I had not covered on my former visit. I have therefore been fortunate in being able to examine most of the primary material relevant to the subject of the present dissertation, although there is naturally always the possibility that some unused manuscript sources still exist in private libraries.

The three towns, Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang, located at the confluence of the Yangzi River and its largest tributary, the Han River, were divided by water and the imperial administration. In less than fifty years, the three towns disappeared, and in their place emerged Wuhan, the largest Chinese city in terms of its urban area. The urban integration was so successful that their separate pasts have been left out of current public memory. The goal of my study is to understand why and how Wuhan was made, and what the obsession with the city's big size can tell us about Chinese imagination and experience of modernity in the twentieth century. In answering these questions, the project is designed to cover three periods from late Qing, the republic, to the early PRC, and to trace modernizing efforts made by successive regimes to create "Great Wuhan." It focuses on five key historical periods--the late Qing reform, the urban self recovery after the 1911 revolution, the modernist planning from 1927-1936, Wuhan as a wartime capital in the Anti-Japanese War (1937-1945), and the socialist urban reconstruction from 1949 to 1957. The study shows the 1911 revolution as a turning moment when a modern city was designed to depart from its imperial antecedent. It was Sun Yat-sen, the founding father of Republican China, who first proposed the idea of "Great Wuhan." Such a gigantic urban project shows that Sun was thinking "big." I argued that his way of thinking prevailed with the emergence of a strong scientific faith, which primarily placed upon young technologically trained officials and engineers later. Like Sun Yat-sen, they envisioned a total transformation of modern China through re-engineering urban society and infrastructure construction. This "big" vision of modernity--gigantic and centralized--was promoted by both Chinese Nationalists and Communists and ran across time and ideology in shaping contemporary urban landscape. I also argue that the creation of Wuhan had been closely tied to the nation-state building in the early twentieth century. Sun's idea of "Great Wuhan" didn't gain currency until the late 1920s when the Nationalist party that inherited Sun's mantle came to power. From then on, efforts to make "Great Wuhan" always intensified at moments of national crisis and political change, through which the state consolidated its power and gained control over local society. The rise of nationalism along the time also contributed the obsession with bigness that fueled the ambitious project of "Great Wuhan." It is under the CCP regime that the city of Wuhan was finally made. The socialist system and its strong nationalist movements established in the early years of PRC proved to be more effective in carrying out the mega city project.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Wu, Fulong Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1995 Description An account of the resource Cities in the world are changing rapidly. In the Western societies, changes are driven by the transformation from Fordism to post-Fordism and postmodernism. In the East, changes are triggered by profound social and economic reforms. Changes in the urban spatial structure of Chinese cities are by no means less significant, yet are left largely unexplored. It is this central theme that this dissertation attempts to examine. Through reviewing theories and studies on urban spatial structures, this study upholds a theoretical perspective that urban spatial structure is a spatial manifestation of the underlying urban process. More specifically, there are tight interlinks among political economy of the city, organization methods of land development and urban landscape. It is found that the changing urban process in China in the midst of economic reforms is characterized by decentralization and localization. The dominance of sectoral departments is replacing by rising localism. The initiation of land reform is a major turning point for the changes in the urban process which have significant impacts on the urban spatial structure. A dual land use system has been set up. Project-specific type of land development has been substituted by comprehensive development and real estate development. It is deduced that urban sprawl, land use restructuring, and formation of suburban centres would be the main features of new urban development in Chinese cities. This study has verified the hypotheses with a detailed study of land use changes and the determinants of land use changes in Guangzhou. This study uses GIS to analyse land use information interpreted from aerial photographs of 1979, 1987, and 1992. Land use conversion matrices are generated. Detailed distributions of land use changes of major types of land uses are analysed. Probability trend surfaces are produced to reveal the changing probability of land developments at the intra-metropolitan scale. Logistic models have been calibrated to reflect the changing determinants of land use changes. It is found that there are obvious changes in the locational tendency of land developments. The distance to the city centre is an important determinant of land use changes. Urban redevelopment can be carried out in the high density areas in the city centre because high land value can afford to relocate the residents. Natural conditions of land are now less restrictive than before, while market considerations are becoming more critical to land development. The function of traditional physical planning is diminishing. It is concluded that the new urban spatial structure bears both sectoral and concentric features. Developments are shifting from the old sector of industrial areas to new sectors of residential areas. City centre redevelopment, growth of urban fringe, and formation of new subcentres are in concentric form. The study concludes that measures should be taken in order to ensure effective and fair development control in the new urban process resulted from economic reforms in China.

Accordingly, religious organisations in stressed inner-city neighbourhoods have achieved a certain level of stability and presence that make them important sites for organising residents, particularly in non-Anglo, immigrant-rich communities. Northern scholars a l so suggest that faith-based community development benefits from readymade leadership, opportunities for new leadership, and the possibility of building strong collaborations with both secular and other faith affiliations. Collaboration then becomes key in promoting successful community/ faith-led regeneration projects. In Hillbrow, Johannesburg's most demonized and stressed inner-city neighbourhood, FBOs have also become "spaces of hope" for approximately 70 percent of its inhabitants. They enable at least one mechanism through which the everyday uncertainties and insecurities of the Sub-Saharan urban may be navigated. And they create, however tenuously, a sense of belonging in this transitional, port-of-entry, neighbourhood. This may be said despite Hillbrow's diverse, and sometimes competing, faith identities which are far from being homogeneous. Still, many facilitate social and welfare services abandoned by the city council, in addition to community wide development projects. In order to reimagine the City of Johannesburg's exclusionary and 'revanchist' regeneration policies, this study will argue for a civil society involved and/ or led regeneration by embracing planning for social transformation theories and practices: A s such, in contrast to the mainstream and official understanding of Hillbrow, sites of faith-based efforts reveal an/ Other Hillbrow: an organised civil society in which their current initiatives suggest new possibilities for urban regeneration and human flourishing.

The word panorama was coined in 1792 to market a large-scale circular painting that gained international popularity during the nineteenth century. The panorama image is investigated through large circular paintings, engravings and etchings, and panorama photographs that extend from the daguerreotype (1839) to the vintage silver print of the Cirkut camera (1904). The panorama is examined as a historical and discursive representation of modernity and modernization to consider its conditions of production and social relations as inseparable from technological change and economic growth and development. The panorama world-view implies prosperity and progress. The modernizing cities of London, Paris, San Francisco and Vancouver provide topographical views to examine the ambitiously complex composition and scale, and structure and space of the panorama. The panorama's central permutations are recognized as a view from a high vantage point, a full force of pictorial record displaying objective fact, and an optical realm of illusionary structure. The spatial and social implications of the panorama are interpreted as successfully unifying discordant and disruptive experiences of modernity through spatially resolving the ambiguities and uncertainties of an increasingly global world. Panorama vision and space are interpreted through theoretical influences of Roland Barthes, Jonathan Crary, Michel Foucault, Henri Lefebvre and Georg Simmel.

Throughout the twentieth century, two rival urban visions have reigned: the Coney Island model, a chancy, participatory theatre where patrons can confront head-on current conditions; and the Disney model, a carefully planned setting where guests are made to feel comfortable and secure. The current ascendancy of the Disney model, evident in urban and suburban landscapes increasingly shaped in the Disney image, has attracted the attention -- and alarm --of critics who interpret this trend as urban planning with a 'sinister twist.' A case study of Disney's involvement with Seattle Center, originally the site of the 1962 World's Fair and now Seattle's premier urban park, demonstrates, however, that people actively challenge, negotiate, and reform the Disney model to meet their needs by infusing the space with traces of the rival Coney model. The suggestions Disney made for renovation of Seattle Center sparked a city-wide debate that centred on the roles of local participation, cultural sensitivity, and aesthetic design in urban space; Disney was found lacking on all accounts and eventually rejected entirely. Seattle's experience with Disney demonstrates that amusement space offers a rich terrain upon which people can dream about, and implement, urban change.
