There are three cities being planned in a tri-city region. All three cities will be constructed at the same time. One city will have most of the region's cultural attractions, and another will feature light industry and manufacturing. The thrid will be located far from the other two, and will be an arts and agricultural center. How would this best be classified?

Linear City
Linear City
The linear city concept was conceived by Spanish urban planner, Soria Mata in 1882 to address the issues of existing cities by connecting them with linear developments.
Soria Mata's City Ideas
Soria Mata's City Ideas
Soria Mata believed that cities should be integrated with the countryside, with each family owning a house with a large garden (minimum 400 m2, building on only 280 m2).
Linear City Layout
Linear City Layout
The linear city has a main transportation artery of 50m wide. Residential zones are within 200m of the road. Services are along the road, and factories/farms are on the city outskirts.

Study Notes
- مدينة خطية: نظرية وضعها المهندس المعماري الإسباني سوريا ماتا في عام 1822م.
- سوريا ماتا اعتبر المدينة مصدر كل المساوئ و يجب أن تمزج المدينة بالريف.
- دعا ماتا إلى أن تمتلك كل أسرة منزلا مستقلا بحديقة لا تقل عن 400 متر مربع، مع بناء 280 متر مربع فقط.
مواصفات المدينة الخطية (الشريطية) حسب اقتراح سوريا ماتا:
-
عدد السكان: 30,000 نسمة.
-
شريان مواصلات رئيسي بعرض 50 متر يخترق المدينة.
-
المناطق السكنية تقع على عمق 200 متر من حافة الطريق.
-
الخدمات الرئيسية موزعة على طول الطريق.
-
المصانع والمزارع تقع على أطراف المدينة بعيدا عن المنطقة السكنية.
-
قدمت هذه النظرية حلولا لمشاكل المدن القائمة عن طريق توصيل المدن القائمة بمدن شريطية.
-
نظرية المدينة الحدائقية (مدينة الغد): ظهرت بعد المدينة الخطية بقليل، من خلال المخطط الإنجليزي إبنزر هوارد عام 1898م.
-
فكرة المدينة الحدائقية ظهرت في كتاب للمخطط إبنزر هوارد بعنوان (مدن الغد الحدائقية).
فكرة المدينة الحدائقية:
- فكر هوارد في إيجاد مدينة خالية من المشاكل توفر للسكان الخدمات والراحة.
- كان الاعتقاد السائد قبل هوارد يحصر الخيارات بين مدينة وقرية.
- هوارد رأى أن المدينة تتميز بمقوماتها وأنشطتها التجارية والصناعية والسكنية، وكثافتها السكانية، وحياتها الاجتماعية المفككة.
- بينما القرية تتميز بمقوماتها الطبيعية، الهدوء، جمال الطبيعة، نقاء الطقس، وترابط الحياة الاجتماعية.
- رأى هوارد إمكانية مزج المدينة والقرية في مدينة حدائقية للتخلص من سلبيات كل منهما.
- دوافع هذه الفكرة كانت بسبب ما فرضته الثورة الصناعية آنذاك على العمران الأوروبي والأمريكي من توسع مفرط وتلوث بيئي.
- اقترح تخطيط مدينة تمثل مجتمعا متكاملا اجتماعيا واقتصاديا وثقافيا، وتوفر لسكانها الخدمات الأساسية مع جعل الأرض ملكية عامة لجميع السكان دون تخصيصها للأفراد.
- سميت هذه المدينة بالمدينة الحدائقية أو الريفية أو الحياة السليمة أو مدينة الغد الحدائقية.
وصف المدينة الحدائقية كما تصورها هوارد:
-
المدينة الحدائقية دائرية الشكل تتخللها أحزمة خضراء.
-
تتكون من مركز تتجمع حوله المباني، ثم تنطلق من المركز 6 شوارع إشعاعية تفصل المدينة إلى 6 أجزاء مخروطية.
-
مساحة المركز: 10,000 دونم، وتوجد فيه المباني العامة ومجلس المدينة وقاعة الموسيقى وبيوت الثقافة والمسرح والمكتبة العامة والمتحف وقاعة الرياضة والمستشفى.
-
عدد السكان: 32,000 نسمة.
-
المساحة الكلية: 60,000 دونم.
-
الكثافة السكانية: 8 أشخاص/دونم.
-
6 شوارع عرضية تخرج إشعاعيا من المركز.
-
نظرية المدن التابعة (Satellite towns): ظهرت بمعرفة المخطط ريموند أنوين (Raymond Unwin) عام 1922.
-
أوضح أنوين تأثره بنظرية المدينة الحدائقية، مما جعله يرى المدن التابعة كمدن فرعية تابعة لمدينة رئيسية، أو فكرة المدن الضواحي.
-
يتراوح سكان الضاحية بين 12,000 و 18,000 نسمة بحيث لا تتطلب مواصلات داخلية.
-
قد تشمل الضاحية بعض الصناعات، و لكن يجب ربطها بالمدينة الأم بواسطة شبكة مواصلات سريعة ومريحة.
