This article is focused on problems related to parking in the Slovak Republic (SK) and abroad. The examples of individual solutions are mostly from spa cities or towns. Spa cities are attractive from the transport view and they attract traffic more. The most used means of transport is an automobile and in relation to this, there is a greater demand for parking in these cities. The number of visitors in spa cities has been increasing every year and therefore, the number of vehicles has been increasing too. The cities often do not have enough space to build new parking spots. Improper parking on the streets, public space and green areas is not unusual and it presents a negative impact on the city dwellers (e.g. restricted traffic). In our article, we analyse and compare individual solutions for parking in the Slovak Republic and abroad.

The COVID-19 lockdown period has highlighted the ability of housing to accommodate a comprehensive programme typical of the city and its public space. Housing units of under 60 m2 and in blocks of flats are the more vulnerable, as they have a higher percentage of non-community open spaces. That problem was analysed using a methodology based on psychological, urban planning and architectural indicators applied to two coastal cities in the Mediterranean area of southern Spain. The results highlight three aspects in this type of dwelling: the need to consider the orientation of the housing to improve the quality of indoor and outdoor space; the need in public housing policies for a greater number of rooms to facilitate remote working; and finally, the importance of functional terraces overlooking green areas.

Functional Transformations

Kharkiv is a great post-socialist industrial city with a population of over 1 million. Owning large objects with different functional components (both industrial and social infrastructure, other municipal institutions), the big city in the early 90’s faced with the fact that there was no resource for their maintenance and development. Variable and unstable economic situation drowned in demand for many services. A situation of paralysis of the public space of the city has been created. Only with the beginning of privatization and commercialization processes, we can talk about the gradual filling of the created emptiness. Individual investors become the subjects of assessment and planning of the territory. And the urban space is the object of commercial activity. The new conditions have created opportunities for dialogue between the authorities, the city community and business. Disorder of these relationships has given the poor results of spatial transformations and modernization of territory in Ukrainian cities. An investor, focusing on profit, determined the place, form and function of a new object at its discretion, often changing the face of the city and the role of the territory. Our research is caused by the need in the study of spatial transformations and modernization processes in the great post-socialist city, which may be a prerequisite for further changes. Perhaps, Kharkiv is the best example of a post-socialist city for the study of spatial-functional transformations. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the processes of spatial transformation and modernization, as the prerequisites for further spatial-functional transformations in a big city of Kharkiv, based on discovered transformation elements and a core of modernization on the territory. Analysis of the objects we were investigated, allowed for us to see directions of the transformation of the urban territory, outline the spatial structure of the sites, identify possible functional changes in the space and his contemporary role in the urban environment. Investigation of two test sites in Kharkiv – “old centre” and social centre, revealed the difference in the processes of spatial transformation and modernization of urban objects in these parts of the city. It is not always possible to fix a completed transformation. It is important here to see the beginning of the change, to “snatch” the very tendency for a possible change, then to be able to predict the direction and its dynamics.

This article analyzes the main problems of urban public spaces, because today public spaces can determine the future of cities. It is noted that parks are multifunctional public spaces in the urban environment, as they are an important element of the citywide system of landscaping and recreation, perform health, cultural, educational, aesthetic and environmental functions. The article notes that the need for easily accessible and well-maintained urban parks remains, however, the state of parks in many cities of Russia remains unsatisfactory, requiring reconstruction. A brief historical background of the Park of Culture and Rest of the Soviet period in Omsk is expounded, the analysis of the existing territory of the Park is presented. It is revealed that the Park, being the largest public space in Omsk, does not meet the requirements of modern urbanism, although it represents a great potential for designing the space for the purpose of recreation of citizens. Performed functional zoning scheme of the territory of the Park in question, where its division into functional areas destined for active recreational users of the Park is presented, considered the interests of senior citizens, people with limited mobility, etc. Reconstruction of Parks of the Soviet period can provide the city with additional recreational opportunities, as well as increase its tourist attractiveness.

America’s appeal to Utopian visionaries is best illustrated by the Oneida Community, and by Etienne Cabet’s experiment (Moreana 31/215 f and 43/71 f). A Messianic spirit was a determinant in the Puritans’ crossing the Atlantic. The Edenic appeal of the vast lands in a New World to migrants in a crowded Europe is obvious. This article documents the ambition of urbanists to preserve that rural quality after the mushrooming of towns: the largest proved exemplary in bringing the country into the city. New York’s Central Park was emulated by the open spaces on the grounds of the Chicago World’s Fair of 1893. The garden-cities surrounding London also provided inspiration, as did the avenues by which Georges Haussmann made Paris into a tourist mecca, and Pierre L’Enfant’s designs for the nation’s capital. The author concentrates on two growing cities of the twentieth century, Los Angeles and Honolulu. His detailed analysis shows politicians often slow to implement the bold and costly plans of designers whose ambition was to use the new technology in order to vie with the splendor of the natural sites and create the “City Beautiful.” Some titles in the bibliography show the hopes of those dreamers to have been tempered by fears of “supersize” or similar drawbacks.

As is described in this conclusion, more than the media and culture, Madrid’s public space constituted the primary arena where reactions and attitudes toward social conflict and inequalities were negotiated. Social conflict in the public space found expression through musical performance, as well as through the rise of noise that came with the expansion and modernization of the city. Through their impact on public health and morality, noise and unwelcomed musical practices contributed to the refinement of Madrid’s city code and the modernization of society. The interference of vested political interests, however, made the refining of legislation in these areas particularly difficult. Analysis of three musical practices, namely, flamenco, organilleros, and workhouse bands, has shown how difficult it was to adopt consistent policies and approaches to tackling the forms of social conflict that were associated with musical performance.

This chapter presents an account of the San Bernardino band as the public facade of that workhouse. The image of children who had been picked up from the streets, disciplined, and taught to play an instrument as they marched across the city in uniform helped broadcast the message that the municipal institutions of social aid were contributing to the regeneration of society. This image contrasted with the regime of discipline and punishment inside the workhouse and thus helped to legitimize the workhouse’s public image. The privatization of social aid from the 1850s meant that the San Bernardino band engaged with a growing range of institutions and social groups and carried out an equally broad range of social services. It was thus able to serve as the extension through which Madrid’s authorities could gain greater intimacy with certain population sectors, particularly with the working classes.
