SUSTAINABLE DESIGN APPROACHES FOR LIVEABLE WATERFRONTS

Year 2019, Volume: 7 Issue: 3, 401 - 412, 30.09.2019

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to discuss potential ways
to create sustainable waterfront environments. Sustainable design approaches
for waterfronts raises issues concerning planning, transportation, economic
activities, recreation, tourism, and cultural considerations as well as
enhancing the image of the city. Dramatically fast developing cities of the new
era cause some waterfronts to have limited access by the occupants of the city.
High ways, industrial zones, factories, private housings, commercial buildings
like hotels, shopping malls and office buildings or abandoned areas adjacent to
the waterfront prevents public access and full enjoyment of the space.
Therefore, it is significant to gain waterfronts to society as both natural and
cultural heritage sites. Commissioning sustainable approaches and utilizing them
for waterfront design, may create a change toward an environment that actively
experienced by users continuously. The paper reviews the historical use of
waterfronts and meaning of them for the city and the people today. Besides, this
explanatory research tries to investigate the process of urban waterfront
design through examples worldwide, and reveal systematic ways to make these
designs successful and sustainable over time.
