City streets form the backbone of public spaces. In addition to serve mobility, they provide opportunities for shopping, entertainment, strolling, and much more. They are urban spaces shaped and characterized by the facades of buildings. In the face of today’s climatic requirements, how can we design the city streets of the future to be distinctive and inviting urban spaces? For over a decade, the Konferenz zur Schönheit und Lebensfähigkeit der Stadt has dedicated itself to fundamental questions in urban development. The contributions in this volume present discussions from experts in both the theory and practice of a range of different disciplines, as well as from the heads of various German city planning departments, on how the functional and traffic needs of city streets can be combined with their architectural, urban design, and ecological requirements. Discusses the challenges and opportunities offered by urban streets Brings together contributions by renowned experts from both research and practice

Given current sustainability requirements, the quality of the built city—its buildings and public spaces—takes on a particular importance. Yet many municipalities complain about a shortage of experts who are capable of effectively designing cities, urban districts, and urban spaces. Building on the 2014 Cologne declaration on urban design education, ‟Die Stadt zuerst” (‟The City First”), the fourteenth Konferenz zur Schönheit und Lebensfähigkeit der Stadt (Conference on the Beauty and Viability of the City) seeks to circumscribe the requisite professional expertise: what do urban planners need to know in order to design and realize sustainable and resilient cities? They require a solid knowledge concerning suitable street infrastructures, sizes, and shapes of blocks, plot configurations, and building types, for a start. Beyond this, they also need the ability to shape urban spaces and their surfaces so that they remain attractive over the long-term and develop characteristic local atmospheres. Critically examines academic teaching in the fields of urban development and urban design Serves as a stimulus regarding current issues such as the fragmentation of planning processes Contains contributions by renowned experts from both research and practice
