Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Veliky Novgorod, the most ancient city in Russia with a history going back to 859, poses special urban planning and development problems. In the article the legal steps taken to protect the cultural layers in the city are described. The resulting restrictions come into conflict with the tasks of the complex planning of this part of the city, which presupposes reconstruction of the historical city environment. As an example, the work with the Nikolo-Dvirishchensky cathedral is described.

Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Development and implementation of a program for rational use of the land of the city has become first priority for ensuring self-goverment and democracy in Veliky Novgorod, and is seen as the first step towards a system of sustainable city development. The article describes how new routines and legal instruments are introduced to support local self-government and public participation in urban planning, and the development of a real estate market. A system of zooning establishes legal rules which regulate the use of land and constructions of real estate. A geographic information system (GIS) has been introduced to develop the cadaster of the city.

Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Eleven recently built neighbourhoods applying principles of sustainability in all its aspects – environmental, economic and social – are described with a more detailed description of Kronsberg outside Hannover, Germany. Kronsberg with 15,000 inhabitants and working places for 2,000, consists of 10% single-family homes and 90% multi-storey buildings. Considerable obligations were made in all phases of the project to secure a high quality of life and to use natural resources sparingly.

4. Urban planning and land-use in post-socialist Estonia : The case of Tartu
- 2003. - 1
-
Ingår i: Building and Re-building Sustainable Communities. - Uppsala : Baltic University Press. - 9197001740 ; , s. 35-43
-
Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Post-socialist cities are often characterised by large suburban, densely developed areas for manufacturing industry on the periphery, hardly maintained traditionally important inner city areas, and a deteriorating ring of housing between them. Implementing sustainable development and participatory planning practices in the redevelopment of these areas has become a challenge for planners in the former command economies. In the study, the role of public and private agents in promoting rehabilitation and gentrification in the rundown areas in Tartu are looked at.

5. Development of an old wooden house residential district : Supilinn in central Tartu
- 2003. - 1
-
Ingår i: Building and Re-building Sustainable Communities. - Uppsala : Baltic University Press. - 9197001740 ; , s. 44-50
-
Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Supilinn is a declined wooden house residential district in central Tartu, where no renovation has occurred for decades, and many inhabitants lack water, sewage, flush toilets and hot water. Supilinn exemplifies many similar districts in the Baltic states, with considerable cultural values and a wide gap between actual and potential land values. The new master plan attempts to improve the economic performance of Supilinn and to foster gentrification, by increasing the population by one third in a decade, improving services, replacing currently rundown buildings, building new streets and expanding the use of the riverside area, without losing the very particular milieau.

6. Development of a former military district : Jaamamõisa at the former Raadi air base in Tartu
- 2003. - 1
-
Ingår i: Building and Re-building Sustainable Communities. - Uppsala : Baltic University Press. - 9197001740 ; , s. 51-56
-
Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- The district of Jaamamõisa, a former housing area for Soviet military forces at Raadi military air base, has an aging and decreasing population (from about 4,000 to 3,000) due to the emigration from Estonia in the early 1990s, especially by people of ethnic russian origin. In the neighbourhood, 29% of the population were ethnic estonians. Jaamamõisa's development potential is discussed in terms of its advantageous location in the town structure. But Jaamamõisa may also turn into a ghetto and specific attention should be paid to the particular socio-ethnic composition of the area.

7. Development of an industrial district : Kekk in Tartu
- 2003. - 1
-
Ingår i: Building and Re-building Sustainable Communities. - Uppsala : Baltic University Press. - 9197001740 ; , s. 57-59
-
Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Industrial development has suffered particularly from the change to a market economy system. The article describes the industrial area of Kekk in Tartu which was important for the construction industry. The current re-use is seen as a simple example of practical sustainability, where the absense of a strong municipal intervention and initiative from private owners are the important factors. Former industrial buildings may be the only possible facilities for enterprises that do not necessarily need or cannot invest in their surrounding environment.

Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- The importance of inhabitants attitude to the area they live in is drastically illustrated when detested settlements sooner or later are degraded, abandoned and destroyed. On the contrary, liked areas are often well maintained and have a low recirculation rate. In this paper a questionnaire study of values individuals express in their choice of settlements are reported, asking the inhabitants in Suchy Dwór, near Gdynia in Poland.

2. Garden city urban patterns : Rediscovering garden city principles and applying them in new neighbourhoods – the Suchy Dwór area in Gdynia, Poland
- 2003. - 1
-
Ingår i: Building and Re-building Sustainable Communities. - Uppsala : Baltic University Press. - 9197001740 ; , s. 13-25
-
Bokkapitel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- The garden city idea was introduced in the early 1900s as a reaction against poor environments and social alienation in industrialised cities to provide both a "marriage between town and country" and the economic and social advantages inherent in urban life. In the article the idea behind the concept and several examples of how it has been realised are given. The recently completed neighbourhood Suchy Dwór in northern Poland is described with a focus on urban planning and the role of carefully designed social space.
