Abstract Details

2007, MCP, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art and Planning : Community Planning.
Urban voids are to blame for the loss of the ideal density of urban cities. The excessive amount of these vague open spaces has affected many post-industrial American cities that are in the declining stages of their life-cycle. Urban voids create a negative image feeding the need to fill the void. Their presence is undeniable to the point of affecting all that surrounds them. They are caused by economic, social, and physical changes to the city. This study is a critical evaluation of the meaning behind urban voids as previously developed spaces in contemporary cities, while concentrating on strategies taking place in post-industrial American cities.
