But in order to calculate levels of crime this would be done by observing them through theories of environmental criminology, which can interrelate towards Ebenezer Howards and Le Corbusier’s idea of an urban vision. This can ultimately show how it is possible that these ideas provide the best blueprint for a safe and liveable urban neighbourhood. The government passed the housing and planning act 1919 which allowed local authorities to build social housing. It was under this act the two developers visions were to be accepted and in some places their visions could also be experimented. It was during the 1890’s that garden cities were becoming incredibly influential.
Revere Street 1. How would you assess Edward Alexander's decision-making process? Looking at the decision from the investor’s point of view, I feel that Edward Alexander has made the right choice to go ahead and buy the Revere Street property because; him being a young investor, age is the biggest advantage he has and therefore this is the right time for him to buy the property. Alexander is a Harvard Graduate and the chance of him going up the corporate ladder is very high. Moreover it’s an improving neighborhood and taking into account his financial considerations, he wouldn’t get better deal.

Intro : Good morning today I will be discussing the following topics; the Australian of the year award and what it celebrates, who I believe should have been given the award. The meaning of Australia day and what it means to be an Australian. If the date should be moved to avoid conflict between the Ingenious Australians and white Australians. Paragraph 1: Each year there is a Australian of the year award presented and given to an Australian who is worthy of receiving it by, being a good role model, inspiring Australians by achieving some of the greatest challenges and by helping make Australia become a better place. I believe Deborah De Williams should have received the Australian of the year award this year as she was the first woman to complete a non-continuous lap around Australia in 2009 which was 20,000km's she aslo completed the last 800km's with broken feet showing no signs of giving up to help raise money for the breast cancer foundation.
All homes require upkeep and maintenance. Not everybody has the funds to tackle the home repairs that need to be meet. Paying for repairs can be very costly. Another advantage in renting an apartment/home instead of owning a home is that an individual can save money. There are many individuals that need the opportunity to establish stability and credit, which by renting an apartment or a house, he/she can gain leverage to reach his or her goal.
While doing this, case studies of England and the Netherlands will be used as popular examples of squatting in Europe. Indeed,both of the examples will prove the "sui generis" nature of squatting movements in todays' socio economic order. Squatting can be defined as "living or using dwellers without the consent of their owners"(Kollective). There are a lots of reasons and forms of it: While working class people use it to find a proper shelter for themselves, others as middle class prefer this way for their activist purposes.Dee,2014 argues that squatting movements are crucial social movements and needs to be analyzed with the help of two different time period as 1960s-70s and modern squatting. Actually modern movement began in the 1960s in England.
The combination of comfort with English, combined with the relatively liberal political and media environment of India, is resulting in a huge American influence on this middle class. Also contributing are the increasingly strong people to people links between America and India. The middle class is thus developing aspirations that are in line with this psuedo-western mindset. It seems that for now these aspirations are mostly consumerish and professional, not political”. But the most defining feature of this middle class has been the fact that despite moving up the ladder in the consumption chain, it has not lost view of its “traditions” which does appear contrasting but is the path chosen.
By designing a practical skyscraper along with influencing the idea of the modern suburban house, industrial cities could function properly and people could move out of the overcrowded cities. During the colonization of America, European countries put a strong influence on the architecture of their own colonies. British, French, and Dutch colonies differed in building design, but not just by the original styles of their country, but also by the climate in the region as well. Regional climates strongly impacted design and this influenced new construction that would be more sustainable. Early Dutch homes in the current city of Philadelphia, which was found in 1861, were characterized as one to two storey stone or log houses with its distinguishing central chimney to feed the house warmth during the cold winters.
The Four Seasons hotel brand is known for its up market elegance, and its Sydney property, perched in a skyscraper above Circular Quay with views over the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge. It becomes difficult to decide whether to be most impressed by the incredible views, the excellent personalized service, the top-notch business facilities or the clever, thoughtful room design. The Four Seasons was well known for its service-oriented culture. Everything they did was all about the customer and making their experience the best possible. But to do this, Four Seasons had to have a corporate culture to back what they believed.
The information gathered suggest that New Urbanism is more than just an attempt to restore urban centers and towns within metropolitan regions but the ideas are used to reestablish the relationship between the art of a building and creating an active community through participatory planning and designing for citizens. 2 Introduction New Urbanism has been described as the most influential movement in architecture and urban planning in the United States since the modernist movement (Bohl, 2000). New urbanism is a movement that promotes the creation and restoration of diverse, walkable,
