At night, however, the city’s numerous landmarks are transformed from the familiar into the new. Following the success of Merrell’s London at Night, award-winning aerial photographer Jason Hawkes offers a dramatic, night-time perspective on one of the world’s most iconic locations. From the vantage point of a helicopter, Hawkes captures the magical, almost abstract quality of such familiar sights as the Statue of Liberty, Times Square and the Empire State Building as seen after dark, as well as revealing some of New York’s less well-known vistas. Featuring an informative introduction and extended captions by the New York Times journalist Christopher Gray, New York at Night is a unique and often breathtaking record of the city that truly never sleeps.</div>  </div> <b>Jason Hawkes </b>has produced over 35 aerial photographic books since 1991.</div>  </div> <b>Christopher Gray </b>is a journalist for the New York Times who writes about the architectural history of New York.</div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage Gray Christopher Hawkes Jason New York photographie https://crevilles.org/files/original/512d8a46759ab5e4eea5079d6485aebc.jpg 3e778ab0f519aa48bb68668af5ab74b0 Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

A range of key figures in the analysis of capitalist urbanization have published their research on New York City in the pages of this journal including Robert Beauregard, Susan Fainstein, John Friedmann, Loretta Lees, Ann Markusen, Margit Mayer, Peter Marcuse, Harvey Molotch, Neil Smith, Sharon Zukin and many others.<br /> <br /> We can differentiate between two main bodies of work in relation to New York City: firstly, the role of the city as an intellectual arena through which key theoretical ideas have been explored and elaborated; and secondly, those works that focus on the city itself for the analysis of specific manifestations of urban transformation. If we consider the ‘thinking space’ of the city it is clear that the role of New York as an inspiration for thought and also a focus for analysis are often interrelated so we cannot easily disentangle the theoretical and empirical dimensions to urban scholarship. Although, we cannot refer to a ‘New York School’ in quite the same way as the LA School of the 1990s — exemplified by the work of Ed Soja, Allen J. Scott and others — or even the Venice School of the 1970s — with the distinctive neo-Marxian architectonic discourse of Massimo Cacciari and Manfredo Tafuri — there is nonetheless a powerful skein of individual and institutional connections that places the city at the centre of a series of critical debates. There has been, through the work of Peter Marcuse, Neil Smith and others, a deep dedication to exploring aspects of social injustice in New York City as a means to build a powerful body of empirically grounded theoretical work. A set of conceptual tools and vantage points have emerged from the city which remain pivotal to socially engaged urban research.<br /> <br /> Critical areas of scholarship on New York City addressed in IJURR include migration, labour markets and the incidence of urban poverty; the effects of fiscal crisis on patterns of urban government and public service provision; housing and ghetto formation; gentrification and class displacement; the garment industry and processes of industrial change; the rise of art districts and the power of cultural capital; and more recently, the city as a focal point for critical security discourses and geopolitical agendas.<br /> <br /> In selecting ten articles for this IJURR virtual issue (from more than 40 possibilities) I have sought a balance between past and present, placing some ‘classic’ articles alongside a few less known contributions. There comes a certain point where the journal itself becomes part of the discourse in question: essays may link in unexpected ways or novel insights may subsequently become central elements in urban debate. I hope that this initial selection will provoke further reading and reflection and perhaps even the writing of new articles that carry these debates forward.</div>  </div> <b>Contents:</b></div>  </div> Neil Smith and James Defillippis - The reassertion of economics: 1990s gentrification in the Lower East Side</div> Hans Prujit - Is the institutionalization of urban movements inevitable?

Le manque de ressources naturelles au sol a déplacé les jardins vers le haut et jusque dans la lumière. Une génération florissante de spécialistes pleins d'imagination veille au style et au prestige des projets : le luxe d'un jardin de ville requiert une idée à la fois unique et applicable, esthétique et sobre, tirant le meilleur parti des possibilités existantes.<br /> <br /> Qui aspire à admirer, depuis son jardin, la baie, l'horizon ou l'environnement urbain ; qui désire y trouver un refuge coupé du monde extérieur - ces attentes jouent un rôle déterminant dans la conception du projet. Grâce aux photos exceptionnelles qu'il comporte, ce livre embrasse la formidable diversité des jardins new-yorkais ; jusque-là, seuls les propriétaires de ces derniers avaient accès aux informations et aux images que l'auteur et la photographe livrent ici au lecteur.<br /> <br /> Trente lieux - allant des jardins botaniques mondialement célèbres, des jardins récupérés sur la ville elle-même aux très sélects jardins sur toit beaux à couper le souffle, en passant par les terrasses sans plantes des "jardins pour la vue" - illustrent les différentes facettes d'un univers fascinant, tout à la fois pragmatique et spirituel, riche en idées et en passions, en couleurs et en formes.</div>  </div> <b>Veronika Hofer</b> a étudié l’histoire de l’art et a travaillé en qualité de rédactrice pour la Bayerischer Rundfunk (télévision et radio bavaroises).

In the postmodern metropolis public space has become saturated with the signs and systems of commercial activity. The novel's artist figures have to win back an audience and to impose their own forms of communication. They have to reappropriate available surfaces and superscript them with their own images and colors. In exploring the aesthetics of these fictional artists, and of the graffiti writer Ismael Muñoz in particular, DeLillo produces his own aesthetic manifesto. His novel suggests that the role of the late twentieth century American artist is to respond to the visual and intellectual assault that the media have mounted against the public, first by placing dominant productions at an ironic distance, and then by transforming discredited modes of expression into new cultural forms. The novel embraces and even adopts the urban graffiti impulse while adding other dimensions not available to the visual arts. It brings together the fragmented and disjunctive images of city life into a narrative, adding a temporal as well as spatial dimension. From the detritus of contemporary capitalism Underworld creates new myths that restore humanity to a culture dehumanized by its own technology.

Lorsque les Américains ont dû se doter d'une capitale permanente, à la fin de laguerre d'Indépendance, c'est New York qui a été tout d'abord choisie. La ville abrite le Congrès continental de 1785 à 1789 puis demeure la capitale temporaire du pays lorsque la Constitution entre en vigueur en 1789. Cette année-là, George Washington prête le serment présidentiel à New York tandis que la ville abrite le premier congrès fédéral. Le Residence Act du 9 juillet 1790 met cependant un terme aux rêves de ceux qui voyaient New York demeurer éternellement la capitale du pays. Cette loi décide que celle-ci sera située sur les rives du Potomac plus ausud. Pour apaiser la déception des Philadelphiens, qui étaient eux aussi sûrs de devenir la première ville du pays, Philadelphie fait office de capitale pendant dix ans en attendant que la ville de Washington sorte de terre. Entre 1785 et 1790, New York connaît une croissance importante, à tel point qu'elle dépasse Philadelphie et devient la première ville américaine lors du recensement de 1790. Sa population passe en 5 ans de 24 000 à 33 131 habitants. La présence des autorités fédérales accélère la croissance de la ville mais ne la provoque. Celle-ci commence en fait dans les années 1730. Ceci explique pourquoi New York demeure par la suite la première ville du pays bien qu'elle ne soit plus sa capitale politique.

Réguler pour innover, les années Bloomberg Subject The topic of the resource New York, planification urbaine, qualité urbaine, règlements d'urbanisme, régénération architecturale, logements sociaux, transports urbains, espaces verts Description An account of the resource Ce livre explore l’inventivité à l’œuvre dans la légendaire ville de New York sous la mandature de Michael Bloomberg, maire de la ville de 2002 à 2013. Poursuivant la dynamique impulsée par ses prédécesseurs, Bloomberg a donné un nouvel élan à l’évolution du Grand New York par une réinvention de la planification – PlaNYC – et par le renouveau des règles, incitant tous les investisseurs à réaliser les enjeux de qualité urbaine souhaitée par la Ville. Des espaces publics qui privilégient le piéton (walkable city), créant des « salons » urbains, la transformation du viaduc de la High Line — devenu haut lieu de fréquentation new-yorkaise et internationale —, la régénération architecturale avec des signatures de renom, la reconquête des rez-de-chaussée pour en faire des lieux vivants, la création de parcs le long des rives… autant d’actions qui s’accompagnent d’incitations à la construction de logements sociaux, du renouveau partiel des transports urbains, etc. Le risque d’accentuation des différences sociales n’est pas écarté et la question des transports métropolitains reste problématique. Et si, comme partout ailleurs, la critique est de mise, les méthodes n’en restent pas moins innovantes et fécondes. Elles peuvent inspirer d’autres métropoles, dont la métropole parisienne, mais aussi des agglomérations de taille plus modeste, car l’invention des outils et les modalités du partenariat public-privé, ainsi que la gestion conjointe des temps longs et courts, ne manqueront pas de surprendre et d’intéresser les acteurs de l’urbanisme.

It impacts not only cities but also the network of social and ecological systems well beyond their borders. In contrast to the complexity of today's urbanization, the concept of the "Eco-City", arguably dating back to the ideal of the 19th Century Garden City, seems like an overly simplistic and utopian vision. Yet, the imagery and language of an idealized "Eco-City" continue to shape the planning and design of contemporary cities while disregarding the vital complexity of contemporary urban conditions and issues. This symposium will examine today's multifaceted urban environment in order to explore emerging theories and practices that will enable us to address these critical issues. Specifically, it investigates three areas of knowledge and practices: emergent ecologies, emergent cities, and emergent tactics.</div>  </div> Keynote address - Kongjian Yu<br /> <br /> Emerging Ecologies</div> Jane Wolff, Kristina Hill and Ken Yocom (moderator)<br /> While early attempts to conceptualize urban ecological conditions primarily focused on traditional ecological methods and subjects, a new paradigm is emerging that embraces the complexity and uncertainty associated with coupled human/natural systems. This session explores the relationships between environment, equity, economy, and design in our rapidly urbanizing world.<br /> <br /> Emerging Cities</div> Chelina Odbert and Jennifer Toy, Viren Brahmbahatt, Alfredo Brillembourg and Ben Spencer (moderator)<br /> This session examines the dynamics and implications of rapid urban growth in the emerging mega-cities of the global south. Critically engaging issues of environmental resilience and social equity as they relate to urban form at multiples scales, it explores the present and potential evolution of design, technology, policy and practice in these contexts.<br /> <br /> Emerging Tactics</div> John Bela, Nicholas de Monchaux, Denise Hoffman Brandt and Jeff Hou (moderator)<br /> This session focuses on new approaches to remaking the urban environment that are distinct from the paradigm of master planning and conventional practice of design. It examines how seeing the urban landscape as a set of systemic and interactive matrices with interconnected and spontaneous possibilities can inspire new approaches and methods in design and implementation.</div>  </div> Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource aménagement urbain croissance urbaine eco-city écologie urbaine écoquartier environnement urbain équité sociale pays en développement urbanisation ville durable Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Schmoll, Camille Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2002 Description An account of the resource Plus de trente ans après les débuts d'une immigration dirigée vers les Etats d'Europe méridionale, et dans le contexte d'un Mezzogiorno toujours en difficulté , la présence de migrants à Naples est souvent interprétée comme un épiphénomène. Oiseaux de passage (Piore, 1979), leur venue ne serait nécessairement qu'une étape dans un parcours de mobilité ascendante dirigé vers un Nord désigné de façon abstraite. <br />L'analyse de l'insertion des migrants au sein de la réalité locale se résume alors en le constat amer de la constitution d'un sous-salariat provisoire au sein d'un marché du travail fortement segmenté. Ce constat occulte la complexité des dynamiques migratoires actuelles et ne tient que faiblement compte des ressources et stratégies des individus migrants et de leurs relations à la société locale qui se caractérisent par de fortes interactions . Au-delà d'une figure figée et englobante d'une communauté étrangère de passage, il convient de constater la diversité des situations migratoires, des activités, pratiques et projets qui sont autant de localisations et de rapports sociaux inscrits dans l'espace, dans le contexte d'une métropole napolitaine en transformation.

Elle est, depuis le XIXe siècle, une des villes les plus connues au monde. Capitale du tourisme de luxe, le rendez-vous international de toutes les célébrités de la politique, des affaires, des arts, c’est aussi une ville cosmopolite, riche de la diversité de sa population.</div>  </div> À la Belle Epoque, Nice perd son statut de modeste capitale régionale pour devenir une des villes les plus connues du monde, une des capitales du tourisme de luxe. Cette mutation s’accompagne d’une spectaculaire cosmopolitisation de la ville, phénomène observable dans la composition variée de la population, les formes de l’urbanisation, les comportements sociaux et culturels. Nice attire d’abord la main d’&oelig;uvre italienne mais accueille aussi les exilés politiques des empires russes et ottomans : Russes blancs et Arméniens ; Juifs allemands fuyant l’Europe centrale et orientale… Une économie locale fondée sur le tourisme se met en place notamment grâce à cette main d’&oelig;uvre italienne précaire, essentielle au fonctionnement et au développement économique de la ville.</div>  </div> Comme ailleurs dans l’Hexagone, la guerre de 1914-1918 affecte les comportements démographiques : le nombre de mariages et de naissances chute. Pourtant, le recensement de 1921 révèle une augmentation de la population tandis que l’on observe une reprise rapide de l’activité touristique, en dépit de la crise économique internationale. Nice retrouve les voies d’une prospérité à laquelle contribue grandement une immigration étrangère massive. La période n’en est pas moins marquée par des crises, économiques ou politiques, dont les échos produisent des tensions au sein d’une population niçoise toujours plus cosmopolite. Mais le cosmopolitisme niçois est un édifice fragile, prêt à se lézarder sous l’effet de nouvelles crises et de nouvelles arrivées.</div>  </div> À partir de 1945, et surtout, après l’indépendance de l’Algérie, le visage de l’immigration niçoise change et les Italiens cèdent peu à peu la place aux Maghrébins. Les tenants de l’identité niçoise s’alarment alors et on assiste à la montée du racisme anti-arabe.</div>  </div> <b>Yvan Gastaut</b> est maître de conférences en histoire contemporaine à l'université de Nice-Sophia Antipolis et membre du Centre de la Méditerranée Moderne et Contemporaine (CMMC). <br /> Agrégé d’histoire, <b>Stéphane Mourlane</b> est docteur en histoire contemporaine et enseignant à l’université de Nice-Sophia Antipolis. <br /> <b>Ralph Schor</b> est professeur d’histoire à l’université de Nice.</div>  </div> Type The nature or genre of the resource Ouvrage cosmopolitisme démographie Gastaut Yvan immigration Mourlane Stéphane Nice Scho Ralph https://crevilles.org/files/original/5ad834e394a1f01ff58eb87666b65a98.jpg e27c9d966deb4e26ba2f7ad60b5c51fd Omeka Image File The metadata element set that was included in the `files_images` table in previous versions of Omeka.

The research aims to reveal the existence of a transcultural space constituting the cosmos of Nicosia, capital city of the late medieval and renaissance Kingdom of Cyprus. It is argued that the natural and built environment of the city simultaneously witnessed as well as constructed this highly obscure space, whose elusive nature has not been sufficiently or comprehensively researched thus far. The purpose of this study is to unearth numerous attempts at reconciliation by medieval civilizations, and to comprehend their repeated efforts at bringing in parallel existence and understanding adjacent, but seemingly oppositional or even confrontational, cultures and spaces. The method used engages a re-interpretation of Nicosia's urban space by means of a scholarly narrative, defined as a comprehensively annotated telling of citizens' experiences through the city. While maintaining that it is this telling which better exposes the city's character, past findings on the architecture, topography, and urban experience of Nicosia are concurrently examined, some of them accepted and others re-proposed. Different architectural and ethical realities for the city, as well as varied urban and social identities, emerge as possibilities for pondering only after the superimposition of scientific findings on an interweaving web of experiences, on the remarkably phenomenal world of medieval urban space.
