City Speak X: A Green City, A Cool City
Speaker: Jonathan McKinley
Rising expectations for space for leisure, recreation and sports
Hong Kong is surrounded by so much water and has so many green mountains, so does it really need more urban open space? How do we respond to the threats of global warming and air pollution? What is the meaning of “the urban heat island effect”? What is an “air ventilation assessment”? What value doesthe community place on open space? Is the demand for recreation and sport changing? Do we need a landscape vision and master plan? Is “green infrastructure” becoming more important than roads and railway lines in securing a sustainable built environment in Hong Kong?
Join experts, academics, planners, government officials and landscape architects in a discussion about how to stay cool in our city.

This document provides a guide to the geology of Central Park in New York City. It is divided into three sections. Section one describes the building stones used in park structures. Section two examines bedrock outcroppings, showing evidence of NYC's tectonic history over billions of years. Section three inspects evidence left behind by glaciers, including striations and erratic boulders deposited during the last ice age. Stops around the park are detailed, identifying rock types and geological features formed by metamorphism, intrusions, erosion and glaciation.
Central Park is a public park located in the center of Manhattan in New York City. It was designed by landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted and initially opened in 1857, costing $37.5 million dollars to create. The park is known for representing John Lennon's song "Imagine" through a mosaic installed in his honor.
A photographer named Gordon Donovan took photos of snow-covered Central Park in New York City on January 3, 2014. The photos are credited to www. and feature music called "Greensleeves" by Civelli Claude. The video was created by o.e. and thanks the viewer for watching.
Multi-dimensional nature of solid waste management in MumbaiRishi Aggarwal
Rishi Aggarwal presented on the multi-dimensional challenges of managing waste in Mumbai. Over 6,500 tons of waste is generated daily in Mumbai, which is dealt with at two operational dumping grounds, though one is facing litigation from environmental NGOs. Waste management in Mumbai involves considerations around land, business opportunities, ecology, citizen involvement, and transparent use of public funds. The presentation highlighted disappointingly poor performance of past public-private partnerships for waste management. There is a need for integrity among elected officials, appropriate use of public money, citizen education, and encouraging entrepreneurship to realize value from material recovery in waste management.
In our Living space, people consciously, unconsciously build up many different aspects and scales of circular systems. For the existing coastal villages to achieve
coexistence with the environment in the era of climate changes, the circular systems in the coastal area must be resilient and create a well-knitted network, or so to say
“an along coast sustainable eco-web”.
Based on my observation, I began develop a methodology to observe various scales of circulations in the environment, and find out local characters and coastal resources that
have the potential abilities to accept storm surge.
Central Park is a large urban park located in Manhattan, New York City. It is located between the Upper West Side and Upper East Side neighborhoods. The document does not provide any other details about Central Park.
An Urban Design Approach to a Sustainable Compact City in New Growth Potentia...drboon
Existence of Cities always depends on the region for the resources-land, food, water, energy or maybe cheap labor. The resource base is vital for the survival of the cities. With increasing urban sprawl there is a great impact on the future of cities and their sustenance. The primary intent of the study is to demonstrate an Urban Design approach towards a sustainable compact urban model in new growth potential areas (case of Cyberabad, Hyderabad, India) as a means to counteract city’s faceless sprawl and environmental degradation by generating compact high density, low energy, mixed-use living and integrating it with the existing city fabric reducing the ecological footprint for future generations. As the selected site offers good natural features, ecologically sensitive areas of the site i.e. Steep slope areas, catchment channels and climatically unsuitable areas from the open space system of the development. The sustainable compact city design approach balances the environmental loads and the growth of city saving resources, conserving energy and enhancing the quality of life.
Presentation to MCGM regarding Mumbai Development Plan 2014-34 - SWMRishi Aggarwal
This document summarizes a stakeholder workshop on solid waste management for Mumbai's Development Plan from 2014-2034. The workshop critiqued the preparatory studies document, noting that many figures were not referenced and data assumptions need discussion. It was also noted that waste reduction at source was not mentioned and recommendations from a previous vision document were not included. Suggestions included providing ward-level waste generation data and allocating space in each planning sector for decentralized waste management. Decentralized facilities were proposed as an alternative to reduce land and transportation requirements.

This document discusses the hierarchy of urban green spaces in cities. It aims to study the relationship between urban greens and city structure, ecology, and character. The objectives are to define urban green, identify limitations to green space growth, discuss integration of greens at different scales (city, neighborhood, street, building), analyze case studies, and compare existing scenarios to standards. It then discusses types of urban green spaces like parks and greenways. The benefits of urban green spaces are also outlined, including environmental, social, and economic advantages. The document analyzes Chandigarh as a case study for its meticulously planned hierarchy of open spaces integrated throughout the city. It describes the city's green areas like the Leisure Valley and major parks
This document defines and discusses the components of urban open spaces. It begins by defining urban open spaces as all types of spaces between buildings in a town, including paths, squares, gardens and parks. It then discusses the importance of urban open spaces in giving form to cities, providing recreation space, and encouraging social interaction. The document outlines different types of urban open spaces such as waterways, parks, green areas, and plazas. It provides details on the components, surroundings and landscapes of parks, greens, playgrounds, plazas and squares.
