With the continuous development and expansion of the city, the industrial center of the city has gradually shifted to the emerging industrial area or the outskirts. The industrial building remains that were originally located in the city center have been left behind. The development of the site often adopts the development method of "buy the casket without the jewels ", while the development method of "buy the casket with the jewels "is few, and which development method is more valuable.Taking Laolongkou distillery as an example, this paper makes a comparative analysis in order to provide reference for the site development of industrial building remains.

Batam Island’s role as an industrial development center causes fast-paced growth in many sectors with an uneven inhabitant distribution. With most people inhabit the Batam city.The hinterland area is characterised by islands and housing pattern of community clusters in the form of fishermen’s neighborhood along the coastal region with most of the houses are semi-permanent buildings. Most of people’s activities there are consisted of fishing. With limited infrastructure, the mode of transportation used in between the many islands there is with motor boats (Pancung). This is very much in contrast with the condition down the Batam City, in terms of its socio-economic, housing and other aspects.This research is aimed at figuring out the reason as to why people prefer to have their house located in rural areas and finding out the characteristic pattern of people’s movement around the Batam Island.Samples were taken using the sample random proporsional method. Samples were taken randomly from many districts with a proper ratio of people from weak, middle and upper class economic strata. The data were then analyized with cross classification.Results show that people chose rural areas because that where the industrial locations are so that it is closer for them to go to work, and the housin price or rent there are relatively cheaper too. Whereas people who chose to live in the Batam City do so because they want to improve their livelyhood by opening up alternative businesses other than working within the industry.People’s traveling destination is in and around the rural areas because it is where the industries are located evenly and the rest of them travel to the areas surrounding Batam Island. Such as people of Nongsa, 23% of the travel to the Kabil industrial area, and 12% of them go to the city center (Nagoya). In contrast, people of the Sekupang District, 29% of them travel only in and around Sekupang area. Other than that only 2% of Batam inhabitants travel to the islands surrounding Batam Island. Whereas for the people of Sei Beduk, 29% of them go to Muka Kuning and 14% of them to the city center. And for the people of Lubuk Baja District, 32% of them go to the city center (Nagoya), because it is actually the CBD center.The type of transportation used by people in rural areas are mostly private vehicles because they are thought to be more comfortable and safe, as is the case for Nongsa and Sekupang. Nonetheless, 2% of Sekupang inhabitants use motor boats to travel to the islands surrounding Batam Island. In Nongsa, 36% of the people use motorcycle, public transportation account for 32%, and in Sekupang car owners are around 35%. Contrary, the people of Sei Beduk are mostly using public transportation, 42%, due to the already availabel public road and vehicles and only 34% use cars.As for the distance covered by those people, Nongsa and Sekupang residents are 42% cover around 5-10 Km with a travel time of 20-30 minutes a day. Whereas the people of Sei Beduk, 45% of them only cover 105 km in around 10 minutes a day due to the proximity of their living place with the industrial location.On the other hand, Lubuk Baja (city center) people are 43% using cars,  for the are much more comfortable and allow them to have higher mobility. And only 31% of the inhabitants there use public transportation. Most of the people there cover 1-5 km (52%) to 5-10 km (27%) a day with a travel time of around 10 to 20-30 minutes.

A properly functioning public transport is one of the most important components of urban mobility for the population. Due to spatial inhomogeneity and overall socio-economic differences within a city, there are often considerable disproportions in the quality of transport services within its districts. Also, the city of Krakow is no exception in this case. For a comparison of public transport accessibility in 18 Krakow districts, 7 major quantitative and 5 minor indicators were created. These indicators include the most important characteristics of transport services such as accessibility, frequency, connectivity of connections, and ratios of tram public transport subsystem. The resulting values give a fairly comprehensive picture of the quality of the transport services. Overall higher values for most indicators occur in the central districts of the city. However, due to the complexity of the observed characteristics, it is possible to discover significant differences in the structure of individual indicators. Peripheral districts reach higher amplitudes, which means that in some aspect they have even better transport services than the city center. Yet, at the same time, we also find opposite extremes here, highly below-average values for most other indicators. A detailed analysis of the results provides a unique perspective on the disparities among districts. It can also serve for specific identification of strengths and weaknesses of transport services and its possible optimization.

Abstract. In the post industrial era, with the development of urban economy and the upgrading of industrial structure, a large number of industrial enterprises in the city transfer from the city centre to the periphery of the city in order to relieve the pressure of urban land shortage and seek their own development. Therefore, the idle land left behind is favoured by the real estate development and emerging industries. As an important space carrier for the continuation of urban context and economic development, the industrial buildings left behind are very popular. Its protection and reuse are related to the development of regional economy and the revival of culture. Under the background of urban renewal, how to properly protect and update the modern industrial heritage to realize the organic integration of the new and old system has become an important topic of heritage protection in China.Today, the transformation of industrial heritage is in full swing. Although the research in the field of industrial heritage in China has started relatively late and the domestic practical experience and related research depth are not enough to form a complete theoretical system, the society has reached a common sense of the protection and renewal of industrial heritage. In January 2018, the first batch of China's industrial heritage protection list was officially released, making China's industrial heritage protection and renewal more scientific and standardized, combining with urban renewal to promote the rapid development of modern urban culture and economy, environmental protection and resource utilization.From the point of view of “protection and renewal”, the paper summarizes the different value cognition of industrial building heritage, and discusses the relationship between the protection and reuse of industrial building heritage, and studies the relevant strategies for the protection and reuse of industrial building heritage, so as to provide reference for the research and development of other industrial building heritage.

In Cergy-Pontoise, the artist Dani Karavan is commissioned to conceive the three-kilometer linear path named Axe Majeur (Main Axis), connecting the city center and the vast riverside. Instead of a work of art to contemplate, Karavan builds 12 stations in succession and in the form of instruments with which people are equipped to measure and to process the existent environmental data and to find their own interpretation of the site. By making factual information measurable and translatable into cultural connotations, Karavan’s work implies a mesological point of view from which osmosis between the sculpture and the site invalidates the opposite physical/phenomenal. The paper studies this method based on the notion mediance proposed by the geographer Augustin Berque and on a field survey. Two principles constitute the method: First, Karavan invents a sculptural metrology functioning in the way of the perceptive calibration system. Secondly, the Axe Majeur shows a “total environment” which means not only 12 parts as a single unit but also the inseparable relationship of Karavan’s environment (art) with the whole geographical environment. Each part annotates the signs left behind after Earth’s motion (e.g. topography, geothermal energy) and after cultural activities (e.g. orchard, view of Paris) and turns these signs into the basis on which imagination could be formed and new meaning could arise. By articulating historical and spatial dimension with an environmental symbology, the Axe Majeur constitutes an innovative urban planning method which moves away from an international-vernacular (modernism) or historical-ahistorical (postmodernism) debate. Article received: April 2, 2019; Article accepted: May 25, 2019; Published online: September 15, 2019; Original scholarly paperHow to cite this article: Wang, Yi-Ting.

The performing of a thorough diagnosis of the maturity degree in the development of Open Commercial Centers (OCC) in UNESCO’s World Heritage Cities in Spain allow us to present new proposals and potential lines of action with regard to energizing and optimizing them. Taking as its starting point this basic goal, this work proposes the application of a solid Evaluation Model that following an analytic logic is able to assess and analyze in depth the current situation of OCCs as well as to identify its most relevant strengths and weaknesses. The specific application of the model to UNESCO’s World Heritage cities has given the chance to present their particular features and peculiarities. From model’s application results it is possible to provide some sound recommendations with regard to improve the identified weaknesses as well as to define the basic lines of action of a Strategic Plan to Energize Commercial Activity at the City Center of Historic Cities improving their competitiveness and capacity to create economic value. This work highlights two of the most relevant problems of OCC: Funding Difficulties and Lack of representativeness. According to the results Business Improvements Districts (BID) might be an interesting public-private formula that will allow solving and speeding up OCC’s paces and internal dynamics providing a solid framework to bargain and execute private agents’ proposals.ResumenLa realización de un diagnóstico del grado de madurez en el desarrollo de los Centros Comerciales Abiertos (CCA) de las Ciudades Patrimonio de la Humanidad permite plantear nuevas propuestas, así como potenciales líneas de acción para su optimización y dinamización. Con este objeto, el trabajo plantea el uso de un Modelo de Evaluación contrastado que, siguiendo una metodología razonada y lógica, permite la evaluación y el análisis en profundidad del estado actual del CCA e identificar sus fortalezas y debilidades. La aplicación concreta del modelo a los CCA de Ciudades Patrimonio ha permitido obtener sus rasgos más característicos, así como sus peculiaridades. A partir de los resultados obtenidos se proponen recomendaciones para mejorar los puntos débiles identificados y se definen las principales líneas estratégicas que se recomendarían incluir en un plan de dinamización del comercio en los cascos históricos, lo que aportaría mayor competitividad y capacidad de creación de valor a esta forma de organización comercial. El trabajo pone de manifiesto que los “Centro Comercial Abiertos” presentan dos problemas fundamentales: dificultades de financiación y falta de representatividad. En este sentido, se propone emplear el modelo de los Business Improvement Districts (BID) o Áreas para la Promoción de Iniciativa Empresarial (APIE) como una fórmula de carácter público-privada interesante que permitiría solventar y reforzar los CCA agilizando los ritmos y las dinámicas de funcionamiento de las agrupaciones de comerciantes, y creando un marco estable para negociar y ejecutar las propuestas de los actores privados.

This paper examines the possibilities of improving the energy performance of an existing industrial building by application of the double skin fa?ade on the revitalization of the building envelope in the climatic conditions of the city Novi Pazar, Republic of Serbia. The aim is to examine the impact of choosing the type of glazing, in the processes of revitalization, on the energy needs of industrial buildings for heating and cooling, as well as the contribution of the measures implemented to improve the energy performance of the selected type and model of industrial building. The energy performance of buildings was obtained using the software DesignBuilder and EnergyPlus simulation platform, taking into account the parameters of required internal temperature and climate data for the Republic of Serbia. The comparative analysis of the results of energy simulation according to the criterion of achieving greater energy savings and reduced carbon dioxide emissions was performed. The methodological approach in this research involves creating revitalization scenarios of industrial buildings with a shed roof construction, selection of the specific building according to whose properties by numerical simulation possibilities for energy revitalization depletion were investigated and comparative analysis of the obtained results was performed. The primary objective of this research is to investigate the impact of choosing the type of glazing on the energy performance of industrial buildings with a shed roof construction and to determine the optimal approach to energy revitalization of existing industrial buildings with the implementation of the double skin fa?ade under the climatic conditions of the city Novi Pazar, Republic of Serbia. The results of this paper indicate the negative characteristics of the kopilit glass to solar gains, whose retention requires a large amount of heating energy. While replacing of kopilit glass with a low-energy glass increases the amount of energy required to cooling of the building. With this research, through various revitalization scenarios, it is also indicated that using a double skin fa?ade in the revitalization process of the selected building, has a very similar impact on reducing CO2 emissions regardless of the type of glazing choice.

Chapter 3 rounds out this analysis by investigating the month-long October 1972 Trucker’s or Boss’s strike. It looks at how this mobilization in opposition to Allende created new sites, forms, and identities of political conflict in factories, soup kitchens, and sidewalks; how it challenged traditional lines of political allegiance on the streets and in Congress; and, ultimately, how it set in motion a chain of events that shaped the September 1973 coup. The chapter concludes with a close reading of Allende supporters’ reaction to the strike, focusing on the new forms of political practice they created in the industrial area ringing the city center. Workers in these cordones industriales clashed with the state and opposition in their struggle to secure poder popular—laborer’s authority in the workplace. They fashioned new sites and forms of political practice and affiliation that spilled over the traditional lines of political association. Investigating these entwined contests over public space, Chapter 3 shows how the ongoing effort to “win the battle for the streets” allowed santiaguinos to rethink how and where they could politicize gender and masculinity, and change how participants understood the potential limits of political citizenship across political divides. Ultimately, it illustrates how the act of claiming public spaces became essential political practice, and how these efforts fundamentally reshaped the city’s political geography.

Based on the concept of a livable and global age-friendly city, pavements are a public facility that the city should provide to the people. Appropriate pavements will be beneficial for the people, particularly for good quality of life for the elderly to move around in the city. This study explored the behaviour of the elderly in the use of pavements and the problems confronted. The study also evaluated the value of the pavement walking area as it reflected the benefits of pavements to the elderly by applying the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM). During March-May 2017, data were collected using interviews with 601 elderly living in Bangkok. The study indicated that the main problem for senior citizens regarding their use of pavements was from being disturbed by motorbikes riding on the pavements. The average value of pavement for the elderly was about THB 160 (USD 5.30) per person per year. Thus, the benefits of pavements to the elderly in Bangkok was approximately THB 158 million (USD 5.2 million) per year. Thus, policy makers should make proper budget allocations for elderly-friendly pavement management and seriously address the problems confronting the elderly in using pavements, to maximize the usefulness of pavements not only for the elderly but also for the public and to support a sustainable urban development.
