城市更新中的公共空间塑造与运营初探——以纽约高线公园为例

Research on Urban Renewal and Public Space Shaping——Taking New York High Line Park as an Example

随着我国城市化建设进入后半程,城市更新已经逐渐取代了大规模的新城建设,成为老旧城区改造的主要方式。如何利用城市既有废旧设施和老旧空间,创造新的城市公共活动空间,激发城市活力,是重要的发展方向。本文通过界定城市公共空间的概念,指出城市公共空间打造过程中,尤其是工业、文化遗存类的城市公共空间存在的普遍问题,继而引出美国高线公园进行案例分析,深度剖析高线公园所具有的景观设计、管控手段和运营理念等突出优势和成功经验,并针对性地提出建议,旨在为国内同类型城市更新过程中的公共空间塑造提供参考。

As China’s urbanization construction enters the latter half of the way,urban renewal has gradually replaced the large-scale new town construction and become the main way to transform the old urban areas. How to make use of the existing waste facilities and old space,create new urban public activity space and stimulate urban vitality is an important development direction. By defining the concept of urban public space,this paper points out the common problems in the process of building urban public space,especially in the urban public space of industrial and cultural relics. Then it leads to the case study of the High Line Park in the United States,deeply analyzes the outstanding advantages and successful experience of the High Line Park in terms of landscape design,management and control means and operation concept,and puts forward targeted suggestions,aiming to provide reference for the public space shaping in the renewal process of the same type of cities in China.
