The Death and Life of Great American Cities pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2025
Jane Jacobs, OC, O.Ont (May 4, 1916 – April 25, 2006) was an American-born Canadian writer and activist with primary interest in communities and urban planning and decay. She is best known for The Death and Life of Great American Cities (1961), a powerful critique of the urban renewal policies of the 1950s in the United States. The book has been credited with reaching beyond planning issues to influence the spirit of the times.
Along with her well-known printed works, Jacobs is equally well-known for organizing grassroots efforts to block urban-renewal projects that would have destroyed local neighborhoods. She was instrumental in the eventual cancellation of the Lower Manhattan Expressway, and after moving to Canada in 1968, equally influential in canceling the Spadina Expressway and the associated network of highways under construction.

A direct and fundamentally optimistic indictment of the short-sightedness and intellectual arrogance that has characterized much of urban planning in this century, The Death and Life of Great American Cities has, since its first publication in 1961, become the standard against which all endeavors in that field are measured. In prose of outstanding immediacy, Jane Jacobs writes about what makes streets safe or unsafe; about what constitutes a neighborhood, and what function it serves within the larger organism of the city; about why some neighborhoods remain impoverished while others regenerate themselves. She writes about the salutary role of funeral parlors and tenement windows, the dangers of too much development money and too little diversity. Compassionate, bracingly indignant, and always keenly detailed, Jane Jacobs's monumental work provides an essential framework for assessing the vitality of all cities.

读后感
我读这本书是因为要写城市社会学的读书报告。以下是读书报告，欢迎指正。 阅读了《美国大城市的死与生》之后，我想起了自己的经历。我住在远离市中心的一个大型小区里。所谓“大型”，指的是整个小区的门牌号码有近80个，人口上万。小区的景色很优美，有一个和未名湖相比差不...
评分我是外行乱入的……如果是专业学城市规划的请直接忽略这篇…… 得刚开始上网的时候，就有了在线社区。从QQ公共聊天室到可乐8，从Discuz搭建的论坛到Facebook，自从有了这个线上的虚拟世界之后，社区这个词就频繁的出现。 说起在线社区，脑子里最直观的是BBS，这是最容易理解...
评分走出庭院之后 ——城市小区的兴起及新人际空间的形成 ■ varro 现代城市生活是在走出庭院之后开始的。这种生活正在日益把人们限定在一个个促狭的空间里——或许是有形的物理空间，比如办公室的格子间；或许是无形的心理空间，你看得出对面走来那个穿阿玛尼西服的男人，此...
评分 评分看完每一章后，拿中文简单归纳了一下。 [1.前言] 表达对当下（当时）城市规划的不满，欲提出自己的新规则。首先提出城市与郊区/城镇不同，城市的本质是人的集合，显要特点是大，不能将城市以“田园”的形式处理，即分散住户，大面积带入自然特征。反对“自然”、“草地”即是人...

"Eyes on the street"; Mixed-Use Development
评分去年就看完了，印象最深刻的就是老太太提出的很多提高大城市活力的办法都跟国内的城市形态高度吻合，不知是有意为之还是正好巧合，国内的社区规划方式恰恰就是"看似混乱其实有章可循"的范本，也是目前城市摆脱私家车依赖最好的解决办法。
评分实际上这是本社会学的书，Jane Jacobs讲这么多就是一句话: better city, better life，死与生指的是城市的decay和regeneration，安全（safety）只是催发多样性（diversity）的一个必要因素，单独拿出来作为设计目的毫无意义。若只为安全而各种封闭各种fencing，那就更可笑了。
评分dudu1.城规
