巴塞罗那老城:城市更新还是动态提升?

Old City of Barcelona:Urban Renewal or Dynamic Improvement?

我们可以将巴塞罗那看作一种城市传统悠久的欧洲地中海城市原型。在欧洲南部,城市大多具有特定的形式特征和历史形成过程:其城市形式的密度、紧凑性及它们通过扩张而非推倒重建的演进方式,将它们与欧洲北部的城市区分开来。其地中海的自然条件还赋予了它们温和的气候,以及与这片古老海滩的各种殖民文化之间的关联。

Barcelona can be considered as the prototype of a Mediterranean European city with a long urban tradition.Cities in the south of Europe have quite specific formal characteristics and processes of historical formation:the density and compactness of their urban form and their evolution by means of extension rather than remodelling sets them apart from the European cities of the north.Furthermore,their Mediterranean nature gives them very temperate climatic conditions and has involved them in the various cultures to have colonised the shores of this historical sea.
