With a group of young observers, camera and notebook in hand, he conducted pioneering studies of street life, pedestrian behavior, and city dynamics. City: Rediscovering the Center is the result of that research, a humane, often amusing view of what is staggeringly obvious about the urban environment but seemingly invisible to those responsible for planning it.Whyte uses time-lapse photography to chart the anatomy of metropolitan congestion. Why is traffic so badly distributed on city streets? Why do New Yorkers walk so fast-and jaywalk so incorrigibly? Why aren't there more collisions on the busiest walkways? Why do people who stop to talk gravitate to the center of the pedestrian traffic stream? Why do places designed primarily for security actually worsen it? Why are public restrooms disappearing? "The city is full of vexations," Whyte avers: "Steps too steep; doors too tough to open; ledges you cannot sit on. . . . It is difficult to design an urban space so maladroitly that people will not use it, but there are many such spaces." Yet Whyte finds encouragement in the widespread rediscovery of the city center. The future is not in the suburbs, he believes, but in that center. Like a Greek agora, the city must reassert its most ancient function as a place where people come together face-to-face.Cities and townsCity and town lifeCity planningSociology, UrbanElectronic books.Cities and towns.City and town life.City planning.Sociology, Urban.307.7/6MS 1750rvkWhyte William Hollingsworth234573Underhill Paco594573MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910452686403321City2477780UNINA01258nam 2200445 450 991079896870332120230808200351.01-5018-3016-3(CKB)3710000000934909(MiAaPQ)EBC4530734(Au-PeEL)EBL4530734(CaPaEBR)ebr11295358(OCoLC)962303343(EXLCZ)99371000000093490920161115h20162016 uy 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierAdult ministries help adults love God and neighbor /Scott Hughes, William RandolphNashville, Tennessee :Cokesbury,2016.©20161 online resource (33 pages)GuidelinesIncludes bibliographical references.Christian lifeAdulthoodReligious lifeChristian life.AdulthoodReligious life.305.24Hughes Scott1179964Randolph WilliamMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798968703321Adult ministries3755279UNINA
