1、CHAPTER ONE: EVOLUTION AND TRENDSARTICLE: The Evolution of Modern Urban PlanningIt ' very difficult to give a definition to modern urban planning , from origin to today, modern urban planning is more like an evolving and changing process, and it will continue evolving and changing. Originally, m

2、odern urban planning was emerged to resolve the problems brought by Industrial Revolution; it was physical and technical with focus on land-use. Then with the economic, social, political and technical development for over one hundred years, today ' city is a complex system which contains many el

3、ements that are related to each other. And urban planning is not only required to concern with the build environment, but also relate more to economic, social and political conditions.这是非常困难的给予定义，以现代城市规划，从起源到今天，现代城市规划更像是一个不断发展和变化的过程，它会继续发展和变化。本 来，现代城市规划的出现，以解决工业革命所带来的问题，它是物理和与土地利用的重点技术。然后，随着经济，社 会，政

4、治和技术超过百年的发展，今天的城市是一个复杂的系统包含哪些是相互关联的许多内容。而城市规划不仅要 关注与构建环境，而且还涉及更多的经济，社会和政治条件。In human history, Industrial Revolution is always viewed as a turning point because it brought tremendous changes to the world. At the beginning, it was just like a myth because machine could produce manufactured goods more

5、quickly than the human hand. Following that, a large number of factories appeared and a large amount of people left their agriculture land to the factories. This process is called industrialization. It brought with the rapid economic growth, the expansion of city and the immigration of population. L

6、arge scale population growth in city and without any planning caused many problems, especially in the living conditionthe industrial cities became drab, polluted, unsafe andunhealthy.在人类历史上，工业革命总是视为一个转折点，因为它带来的巨大变化给世界。一开始，它简直就像一个 神话，因为机器可以生产制成品的速度比人的手。随后，大量的工厂出现，大量的人离开了他们的农业土地给工厂。 这个过程被称为产业化。它带来了经济的

7、快速增长，城市扩张和人口移民。大规模的城市，没有任何规划人口增长造 成了许多问题，特另J是在生活条件-工业城市成为单调，污染，不安全和不健康的。With social reform movement, early modern urban planning was concentrated on dealing with the problems of housing, sanitation and infrastructure, and the spread of cholera and other waterborne diseases. During that period, the i

8、dea of planning was to create a pleasant, self-contained environment providing for work, settlement, and leisure, through careful and expert design. A famous example is Howard' s Garden City; it planned a beauwtalchitwas divided intomany districts including the center of city, industrial areas,

9、residential areas, schools and greenbelt to allow people to live together in“ harimohyalth and happiness ” . The theory contributed a lot to the practice of early modern urban planning inEuropean. In a nutshell, the beginning of modern urban planning was more like blueprint approach; it was seen as

10、essentially “atechnical process of design and drawing, unrelated in its operation to economic or political process "Along with the urbanization, zoning was begun, and housing, subdivision, and public health codes were created. 随着社会改革运动， 早期现 代城市规划是集中在与住房，卫生和基础设施，以及霍乱和其它水源性疾病的传播问题的处理。在此期间，规划理念 是创

11、造一个愉快的，独立的环境，提供工作，定居，休闲和专家通过精心设计。着名的例子是霍华德的花园城市，计 划一个美丽的城市，这是为包括城市中心，工业区，住宅区，学校和绿地，让人们生活在了一起很多地区分为“和谐， 健康和幸福。”该理论贡献良多早期现代美国城市规划的做法。概括地说，现代城市规划的蓝图开始是想更多的办法，它被看作是本质“的设计和绘图技术，在其运作过程无关的经济或政治进程。”随着城市化，分区是开始，住房，细 分和公共健康规范的创建。The development of modern urban planning depends largely on the development of so

12、cial policy, economy and scientific technique.现代城市规划的发展在很大程度上取决于社会政策，经济和科学技术的发展Facing with the urgent need of post-war reconstruction, 1950s' urban planning showed a patterneortowardrecovery and economic development. Planning became primarily concerned with industrial development, job creation a

13、nd housing provision. However, planners with no background of economic and social training couldn' t be sensitive to the widieconomic, political and social complexities of urban planning. So planning still emphasized more on physical land-use but to respond the demand of post-war reconstruction.

14、随着战后重建的迫切需要面对，规划1950s'urban 显示模式走向复苏和经济发展的导向。规划 PRIMAR成为与产业发展，创造就业和住房有关条文。然而，由于没有经济和社会培训背景规划 者不能敏感的矛盾的经济，政治和社会的城市规划的复杂性。所以仍计划强调物理土地使用更多的响应，但战后重建 的需求。Going through the post-war reconstruction, 1960s came with rapidly growing economy and advancing technology. Urban planners were aware to the compl

15、ex urban system of political, economic, technical and environmental problems. As a result, planning started to provide development strategies on socio-economic aspect and environmental protection. Regional Planning and National Planning were rapidly developed to provide general policies and strategi

16、es, such as large-scale economic framework, population distribution, infrastructure growth, housing development, etc. to guide local planning. Because of the introduction of computers to urban planning process, there occurred planning models. Then urban planning became more scientific. Furthermore,

17、due to the rapidly growing number of cars, the transportation planning became a more important part of planning. At the same time, environmentalist, by awareness of urban pollution and uncontrolled redevelopment, advocated that planning should pay more attention on environmental protection and urban

18、 conservation. Furthermore, public participation was introduced to the planning process because they realized that urban planning was related to their benefits.通过战后重建会，20世纪60年代迅速发展的经济和先进技术来了。城市规划者意识到在复杂的政治，经济，技术和环境问题的城镇体系。因此，规划开始提供有关社会经济方面和环保事业的发展战略。区域规划和国家 规划提供了快速发展的大政方针和策略，如大规模的经济框架，人口分布，基础设施的发展，房

19、屋开发等，引导地方 规划。由于计算机引入城市规划过程中，发生规划模型。然后，城市规划更加科学。此外，由于汽车数量迅速增加， 交通规划成为规划的重要组成部分。在Sametime的，环保的污染和无节制的城市重建的认识，主张规划应更加环保和城市保护的重视。此外，被介绍给公众参与规划的过程，因为他们意识到城市规划是关系到他们的利益。1970' sapitalist economy began to recess, Traditional values were challenged and planning profession encountered crisis. " Plann

20、ing had not been able to fulfill its promise of balancing growth across the country and spreading i benefits widely with society” . During this period, planning was combined to implementation, not just design and reform. Andplanning was not just following the policy made by officials, but take part

21、in policy-making, so planning was vested political implication. Most of radical planners wanted a redefinition of planning that would include the goals of social justice, equality, and redistribution of wealth and power. Planning was no longer a design process completed by expertise, but a political

22、 process that involved citizens of every class to take part in. Related policies or ordinance were established to form an open and equal planning process. Thus, apart from the original land use allocation and socio-economic strategies, planning process , including planning-making, application and en

23、forcement, was integrated into planning system. 20 世纪 70 年代资本主义经济开始休 会，传统价值观念受到挑战和策划界遇到的危机。？ “规划没有能够Fulfil其平衡全国各地的传播与社会发展和它的好处广泛的诺言”。在此期间，其中合并计划的实施，不仅是设计和规划什么改革，而不是由以下官员的政策，但参与 决策的一部分，所以规划是赋予政治含义。规划师最想要的规划激进的重新定义，其中包括社会正义，平等，财富和 权力再分配的目标。规划不再是一个由专家完成设计过程，而是一个政治过程，每类涉及公民参加英寸相关政策或法令的一部分，建立，形成一个开放的规划程序

24、和平等。因此，除了原有的土地使用分配和社会经济战略，规划的过程 中，包括规划，决策，实施和执行，这将规划系统集成When times came to 1980s, with the global economicrestructuring, business played avital role in economic system and planning encountered forgetting. Some people thought thatmarket could allocate the resources and balance the demand and require

25、in a more rational way, but planning restricted market. Actually, resources are limit, and city is composed of political,economic, cultural and environmental issues, market is not able to balance them all. Then 1990sis the resurgence of planning. Today' s urban planning is a comprehensive planni

26、ng with concernsabout the sustainable development of politics, economy and environment. It contains socio-economic development strategy, policies, regulations, decision-making process, environmental conservation as well as land-use planning, urban design and landscape. In addition, along with the ec

27、onomic globalization, planning is going beyond the traditionally boundary of nation state. Planning cooperation in regions and all over the world is searched for a better socio- economic circumstance and a sustainable environment. Today' s planning is requiredto put the city in world context, an

28、d then figures out promising strategies for its futuredevelopment. 当时间来到20世纪80年代全球 经济结构调整，企业在经济中发挥了至关重要的作用和 规划系统遇 到遗忘。有些人认为市场能增拨资源，平衡需求和更理性的方式，市 场规划要求，但受到限制。其 实，资源限制，城市是政治，经济，文化和环境问题组成的，市场是无法平衡所有 这些，然后是20世纪90年代规划的复苏。今天的城 市规划是一个关于政治，经济和环境的可持续发展问题的全面规划。它包括社会经济发展战略，政策，法规，决策过程，以及环境保育土地利用 总体规划，城市设计和景观。此外

29、，随着经济全球化，规划是超越了民族国家的 传统边 界。规划和世界各地的区域合作是 寻找一种更好的社会 经济环境和可持续发展的环境。今天的规划范围是需投入在世 界上的城市，然后出其未来 发展前途的战略数字。FURTHER READING (2): Trends in Modern Urban Planning of USUrban planning in the United States is quite differentthan elsewhere. Since they are afederal democracy, they do not have the centralized na

30、tional planning that provides the framework intowhich local planning must fit. It hasnot been popular to suggest this centralized approach since most Americans abhorbig government. Thus, the 50 states emerge as the highest levels for planning, and sometimes they are subdivided into regional planning

31、 areas.在美国城市规划是相当比其他地方不同。由于他们是一个联邦民主，他们没有集中的国家规划框架，提供了地方规划必须适合哪。它没有得到普及建议本集中的方式，因为大多数美国人深恶痛绝的大政府。因此，50个州出现作为规划的最高水平，有时他们纳入区域规划领域细分。Urban planning occurs at the city and regional level today. Many functions, such as transportation, water supply, sewage treatment, pollution abatement, and economic dev

32、elopment, occur at the regional level, although no true general-purpose regional governments have been created. Instead, planning at the regional level tends to be advisory to the already established general-purpose governments at the state, county, and municipal levels. These levels have their own

33、planning processes, which are often linked with regional plans.城市规划今天发生在城市和地区的水平。许多功能，如交通，供水，污水处理，污染减排和经济发展，发生在区域一级，虽然没有真正的通用地区政府已经建立。相反，在区 域层面的规划往往是咨询到已经建立的通用在州，县，市各级政府。这些级别有自己的规划过程，往往与哪些区域规 划联系起来。Urban planning will most likely remain a regional and local process for the foreseeable future. It is

34、a continuous process that does not end with the creation of a plan but proceeds through the decision-making and monitoring and evaluation phases of government. And it has become established to the extent that it can be considered institutionalized. It has gone beyond the need to establish its legiti

35、macy and has become an inherent part of government and business. The next phase in the evolution of planning will be implementationthat is, ensuring that good planning will be carried out by both thepublic and the private sectors. This means that planning, while largely concerned with the built envi

36、ronment, will have to relate better to economic, social, and political conditions.城市规划将极有可能仍然是区域和本地进程在可预见的未来。这是一 个持续的过程，不结束，创造了一个计划，而是通过决策，监测和评估阶段的政府收益。它已成为既定的，它可以被 认为是制度化的程度。它已经超越了需要建立其合法性，并已成为政府和企业固有的一部分。在规划发展的下一个阶 段将实施-也就是说，确保良好的规划将由公共和私营部门进行。这意味着，规划，而很大程度上与环境建设方面， 将更好地与经济，社会和政治条件。Urban planning

37、can make no claim to solving all of society 's problems,but it can be an effective andefficient process for building cities and their regions in the best way possible. Here, planning must be a subtle process that is open, participatory, and flexible. It requires both technical skills and the art

38、s of compromise, negotiation, and consensus. Urban planners in the modern world must be part reformer, visionary designer, and politician.城市规戈1J可以使没有解决社会所有问题的说法，但它可以成为建设的最好的方式他们的城市和地区的有效和高效的流程。在这里，规划必须是一个潜移 默化的过程是开放的，参与性，和灵活。这既需要技术技能和妥协的艺术，谈判，并达成共识。在现代世界城市规划 者必须成为改革者，有远见，设计师和政客。From this evolution o

39、f urban planning there have arisen several long-term trends .从这个城市规划 的演变有出现几个长期趋势。Growth Control, and Decline ManagementGrowth control is found most commonly in Sunbelt cities , resorts, coastal areas, mountainous regions, and other environmentally and climatically appealing places. A common situati

40、on is when long-term residents and recent in-migrants decide that growth is occurring too rapidly and destroying the quality of life that attracted development. They ask urban planners to control growth in order to preserve that quality of life as well as to relieve the pressures on the infrastructu

41、re, public services, and public costs created by new development. Urban planners use mechanisms that can slow, ameliorate, or redirect growth. While the practice remains controversial in legal terms, many court decisions have upheld the right of state and local governments to plan and control the te

42、mpo, location, and extent of development.生长控制，管理和衰落增长的控制是最常见于阳光地带城市，度假村，沿海地区，山区和其他环境和气候有吸引力的地方。一个常见的？?情况是长期居民和流动人口增长的决定是最近发生的太迅速，破坏了生活质量，吸引发展。他们要求城市规划者，以 控制增长，以维持该生活质量以及减轻压力的基础设施，公共服务，并通过新的发展创造了公共成本。城市规划人员 使用机制，可以减缓，改善，或重定向增长。虽然这种做法在法律上仍然有争议，许多法院判决维护了国家和地方政 府有权计划和控制节奏，位置和发展程度。Decline management is r

43、elatively new to urban planners, because the present redistribution of people, jobs, and development is without precedent in the United States. Until recently, urban planners did not have to deal with declining urban populations. Many cities in the Snowbelt and Rustbelt, most heavy industrial center

44、s that are obsolete, old transportation centers, and other areas subject to difficult climates and changing economic trends are experiencing declines. This does not mean decay necessarily, since some places have redeveloped and improved their quality of life with fewer people living there. It does m

45、ean a far more difficult and risky approach to urban planning. This approach involves elements of preserving what is good about these cities while encouraging change and innovation for things that do not seem to be viable any longer. It essentially means that urban planners can no longer rely upon p

46、rinciples and standards that evolved from planning practice during times of unlimited growth. Now planners must use methods that seek to improve cities while managing their decline. 拒绝管理是比较新的城市规划师，因为人，就业和再分配发展到今天，在美国没有先例。直到最近，城市规划师没有 处理减少城市人口。在Rustbelt Snowbelt ,最重的是过时的，旧的运输中心的工业中心，并受经济困难的气候变化趋势和其他地

47、区的许多城市都面临下降。这并不一定意味着腐烂，因为有的地方重建和改善人民生活较少有他们的生活 质量。它意味着一个更为困难和风险的方法，城市规划。这种方法涉及到保护这些城市是什么样的好内容，同时鼓励 变化和事情，似乎并不可行再创新。本质上，它意味着城市规划者不能再根据原则和标准，从规划实践发展过程中的 无限增长时代依靠。现在，规划者必须使用的方法，设法提高他们的城市，同时管理下降。Historic Preservation and Adaptive ReuseIn both the decline management and growth control contexts, the prese

48、rvation of significant historic areas and buildings is a major trend in urban planning. There has been a lamentable insensitivity to historic preservation until fairly recent times, when Americans came to realize that historic areas and buildings were being destroyed and that a heritage was being lo

49、st forever, Most cities and states now have vital preservation programs that seek to preserve what is truly significant. Agreat number of programs and incentives have arisen to control demolition and encourage conservation.古迹保存与活化再利用在这两个下降和增长管理控制的情况下，该地区的显著历史和建筑保存是一个城市规划的大趋势。有一种可悲的 历史保护不敏感，直到相当最近，当美

50、国人认识到，历史悠久的地区和建筑物被摧毁，而遗产被永远失去了，大多数 城市和国家现在有重要的保护方案，谋求保护什么是真正的显著。一个伟大的计划和奖励数量已经出现控制拆迁和鼓 励节能。An especially interesting part of this trend is the adaptive reuse of older buildings. This concept holds that attractive, sound; historically significant buildings that may have outlived their original functi

51、ons can be reused for new purposes. Thus, urban planners might assist in reusing an abandoned schoolhouse for a technology office, in transforming an old mansion into a cultural center, in turning an abandoned jail into a bar, and even in giving an unused gas station new life as a quality restaurant

52、. In fact, these are real examples of recent projects that have been made possible by urban planning and the use of incentives for adaptive reuse.这方面的一个趋势，特别是有趣的部分是旧建筑活化再利用。这一概念认为，吸引 力，声音，历史上显著，可能已经失去原有的功能，可重复使用的新用途的建筑物。因此，城市规划者可能有助于重 用被抛弃了改造成文化中心的老豪宅科技厅校舍，在转变成一个栏废弃监狱，甚至给一个未使用的气站的优质餐厅的 新生活。事实上，这些都是已

53、经由城市规划，并为可能的活化再利用的激励最近的项目实际使用的例子。Neighborhood PlanningClosely related to the historic preservation and adaptive reuse trend in older cities is neighborhood planning. Planning assistance is provided to neighborhood groupsthat are organized to preserve their neighborhoodsand prevent decline. A plannin

54、g department often supplies special staff and financial assistance to such groups. In some cases, planners themselves may actually be involved in organizing such neighborhood groups. 令 B 里规戈 U密切相关的古迹保存与活化再利用的旧城市的趋势是邻里的规划。规划援助提供2社区团体 -这是有组织的，以维护他们的居民区和预防的下降。一个规划部门的工作人员经常物资和财政援助，以这种特殊的群体。在某些情况下，自己实际上可

55、能是在组织社区团体参与规划审查。Even in growing cities, there is a trend toward neighborhood planning. This has resulted both from neighborhood demands and from recognition by planners that the modern city is an organism composed of individual cells, or neighborhoods. The neighborhood offers an ideal unit in which

56、to concentrate planning programs, which are especially effective when there is an overall urban planning strategy. 即使是在发展的城市，有一个对邻里规划的趋势。这导致无论 是从邻里和规划要求，从认识到，现代城市是单个细胞，或邻里组成的有机体。邻里提供了一个理想的单位#中集中 规划方案，特别是有效的，当有哪一个是城市总体规划的战略。DesignThe trend now is to incorporate the principles of urban design more ful

57、ly into urban planning. This trend evolved in recent years when it became apparent that urban planning had been ignoring the appearance, design, and beauty of the built environment While few if any planners would argue that design can solve social and economic problems by itself, most would concur t

58、hat the way cities look is vitally important. 设计现在的趋势是将其纳入城市规划对城市设计的原则更加充分。这种趋势在最近几年发展的时候，很明显，城市 规划一直忽视了外观，设计和建筑环境规划师美虽然几乎没有人认为设计可以解决社会问题和自身的经济，大多数 人会同意的这样的城市看是非常重要的。The San Francisco zoning regulations of the mid-1980s were a benchmark for the new trend to incorporate design into urban planning. Th

59、ese regulations not only dealt with the land use, height, bulk, and density of buildings, but also went beyond them to establish design standards. They thus went much further than the New York City ordinances of the 1920s, for they dealt with the spatial envelopes and design styles that give form to new buildings. This meant that zoning and other planning controls could be used to require certain design configurations for building construction and for built areas,
