Book excerpt: Place names tell us much about a country — its history, its landscape, its people, its aspirations, its self-image, The study of place names called toponymics unlocks the stories that are in every street name and landmark. In Singapore, the existence of various races, cultures and languages, as well as its history of colonization, immigration and nationalism has given rise to a complex history of place names. But how did these places get their names?

Also included are many new entries that have presented themselves as Singapore’s built environment undergoes redevelopment. Expanded by over 100 pages.

Book Synopsis Self-Organization and Mobility Deprivation of Poor Workers in Hong Kong and Singapore by : Joseph Cho-Yam Lau
Download or read book Self-Organization and Mobility Deprivation of Poor Workers in Hong Kong and Singapore written by Joseph Cho-Yam Lau and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-16 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the influence of socio-economic and land-use policies on the commuting problems and quality of life of the poor in Singapore and Hong Kong. It considers the influence of self-organisation: how the mobility of an individual is constituted by structures such as transport systems or socio-economic structural factors, as well as influenced by individual decisions. Where most transport studies focus on the influence of factors such as income inequality, the gender gap, and the built environment, this book fills a gap in paying particular attention to the influence of individual decisions on commuting. Given the prevalence of the former in research, government decision-makers are often constrained by these approaches and fail to understand the commuting problems of the poor. This book argues that the self-organisation approach provides some ideas that are outside the common conceptual framework in conventional transport planning and looks to improve mobility of lower-income commuters. Relevant to social science researchers working in areas such as urban planning and transport, mobility deprivation, and poverty, this book breaks new ground in quality of life studies in the Singapore and Hong Kong contexts.

This book was released on 2024-04-25 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many cities across the world continue to grapple with long-standing urban challenges even as new ones emerge. With each crisis, cities address these perennial (e.g. decentralization of urban cores and revitalising the city centre), nascent, and emergent (work-life balance, digitization of social-economy) urban challenges with a greater sense of urgency. The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach to signpost future pathways of cities, drawing on the experiences of the city-state of Singapore.

Book Synopsis Well-Being for All: A Holistic Framework for Tropical Cities by : Yann Follain
Download or read book Well-Being for All: A Holistic Framework for Tropical Cities written by Yann Follain and published by Pagesetters. This book was released on 2023-09-22 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As cities continue to grow in this age of climate emergency, it is essential to question how cities are planned and designed in order to be prepared for the future. With a background in the built environment ranging from macro to micro-scale projects, the framework was born from our research and practice while imagining the future for the Paya Lebar Air Base Conceptual Master Plan project in Singapore from 2021 to 2022. Building upon this work, further research and interviews with local experts from urban planning, architecture, public policy and community stakeholders led us to answer this crucial question: How can the built environment be designed to support a holistic way of life towards the well-being of Planet, People &Prosperity in a Tropical context? In this book, readers will learn how well-being can be realised through 12 inter-reliant Principles, be equipped with the skills to analyse their urban environment through intangible and tangible objectives. Coupled with strategies across the scales from urban planning to the buildings and spaces we inhabit, the book is useful for all interested in improving our built environment for all, from urban planners to architects, policy makers, community stakeholders and the everyday city residents.

Book Synopsis Future Forms and Design For Sustainable Cities by : Mike Jenks
Download or read book Future Forms and Design For Sustainable Cities written by Mike Jenks and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-08-11 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrating on the planning and design of cities, the three sections take a logical route through the discussion from the broad considerations at regional and city scale, to the larger city at high and lower densities through to design considerations on the smaller block scale. Key design issues such as access to facilities, access for sunlight, life cycle analyses, and the impact of communications on urban design are tackled, and in conclusion, the research is compared to large scale design examples that have been proposed and/or implemented over the past decade to give a vision for the future that might be achievable.
Book Synopsis Planning for Public Transport Accessibility by : Carey Curtis
Download or read book Planning for Public Transport Accessibility written by Carey Curtis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together a comparative analysis of the accessibility by public transport of 23 cities spanning four continents, this book provides a "hands-on" introduction to the evolution, rationale and effectiveness of a new generation of accessibility planning tools that have emerged since the mid-2000s. The Spatial Network Analysis for Multimodal Urban Transport Systems (SNAMUTS) tool is used as a practical example to demonstrate how city planners can find answers as they seek to improve public transport accessibility. Uniquely among the new generation of accessibility tools, SNAMUTS has been designed for multi-city comparisons. A range of indicators are employed in each city including: the effectiveness of the public transport network; the relationship between the transport network and land use activity; who gets access within the city; and how resilient the city will be. The cities selected enable a comparison between cities by old world–new world; public transport modes; governance approach; urban development constraints. The book is arranged along six themes that address the different planning challenges cities confront. Richly illustrated with maps and diagrams, this volume acts as a comprehensive sourcebook of accessibility indicators and a snapshot of current policy making around the world in the realm of strategic planning for land use transport integration and the growth of public transport. It provides a deeper understanding of the complexity, opportunities and challenges of twenty-first-century accessibility planning.

Book Synopsis Cultural Heritage and Peripheral Spaces in Singapore by : Tai Wei Lim
Download or read book Cultural Heritage and Peripheral Spaces in Singapore written by Tai Wei Lim and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-06 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents through first-hand experience and academic research the historical, cultural and economic interactions affecting land use in Singapore. Offering a unique study of nostalgia in Singaporean heritage, it discusses the subjective nostalgic meanings and interpretations that users of peripheral, heritage and green spaces in Singapore create and maintain, through a combination of informal observations and interactions combined with research into local history and heritage. It addresses the subjective meaning-making processes of individuals within the larger theoretical frameworks that structure understandings of changing land use and economical changes which impact on contemporary cityscapes, centered around peripheral and de-privileged areas of Singapore’s economic development.
