Description

Architects, urban designers, and planners often focus on three-dimensional thinking. However, the reality of the city is four-dimensional, requiring an understanding of how time influences planning and design strategies. The Temporary City addresses this gap by examining the importance of interim, short-term, or 'meanwhile' activities within urban areas. In an era where pressure on scarce resources is increasing, waiting for long-term solutions to vacancy or dereliction is often not an option. This book argues for the legitimacy of temporary uses as a way to manage urban spaces. It provides a necessary look at how time-based strategies can transform how we approach urban development and the management of vacant sites.

Analyzes the role of interim and short-term activities in modern urban areas.

Provides insights into managing vacancy and dereliction through temporary uses.
