景观都市主义与洛杉矶河

Landscape Urbanism and the Los Angeles River

本文审视了近年来风景园林行业的最新发展,包括城市基础设施和空间网络体系的规划实践。这些系统和网络有着改造和提高城市生态的潜力。洛杉矶河流总体规划作为景观都市主义的研究案例,提出了开放空间改造策略的临时模型。研究结果涵盖很多方面,包括河流改造、城市设计远景、开放空间交通网络和新型管理结构。研究同时建立了一个基于类型学的总体规划手法,并证明这一手法更能有效地应对变化。

This article looks at recent evolution in Landscape Architecture practice towards the inclusion of process based planning and design with regards to urban infrastructural systems and void networks. These systems and networks have often unrealized potential to transform and enhance urban ecology＇s. The Los Angles River Master Plan is used as a case study in Landscape Urbanism, especially with regards to temporal modeling of transformative open space strategies. The resulting plan spans many scales including the immediate transformation of the channelized river, urban design scenarios, open space transportation networks, and new governance structures. This plan also established a flexible and typology based approach to master planning that proved to be more flexible and responsive to change.
