Research Society (MARS) plan - Part IV Redeveloping Central London.-. 330 $aThe book deals with the formation of the post-Second World War reconstruction and planning machinery in Great Britain and with the re-planning efforts undertaken in post-war London and in particular the redevelopment programme regarding its central area in the form of the comprehensive development projects. The book recreates the atmosphere following step by step the arguments and the events at various political, socio-economic and technical levels. It also contributes in the understanding of the succeeding developments in terms of planning theory and practice. The book is structured into three parts. The first one explores the administrative and statutory developments in town planning matters during the period 1940-59. The second part deals with the plans proposed for London as a whole from independent and official organisations during mainly the 1940s. Finally, the third part examines the proposed projects for the rebuilding of the City of London and for special areas of Central London that suffered from bombing and located on both sides of the Thames. 410 0$aSpringer Geography,$x2194-315X 606 $aRegional planning 606 $aUrban planning 606 $aUrban geography 606 $aHistory 606 $aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000 606 $aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns)$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15010 606 $aHistory, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/700000 615 0$aRegional planning. 615 0$aUrban planning. 615 0$aUrban geography. 615 0$aHistory. 615 14$aLandscape/Regional and Urban Planning. 615 24$aUrban Geography / Urbanism (inc. megacities, cities, towns). 615 24$aHistory, general. 676 $a710 676 $a900 676 $a910 676 $a913-919 700 $aMarmaras$b Emmanuel V$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0276120 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299457703321 996 $aPlanning London for the Post-War Era 1945-1960$92518773 997 $aUNINA
