 NAME THAT URBANIST

1  
He  used  the  term  
“conurbation”  and  gave  
emphasis  to  how  people  
and  cities  have  a  
relationship.  He  was  fond  
of  using  the  survey  
method  and  was  a  
forerunner  of  the  rational  
type  of  planning.  He  was  
also  called  the  Father  of  
Regional  Planning.

 NAME THAT URBANIST

3  
This  architect  was  very  fond  of  cubist  aesthetics  and  
conceptualized  sky-­‐high  buildings  and  block  apartments  
that  would  house  3  million  people.  He  provided  a  
paradoxical  solution  to  congestion,  saying  that  city  centers  
should  be  decongested  by  increasing  the  center  density.

 NAME THAT URBANIST

4  
This  land  economist  
studied  142  cities  and  
came  up  with  a  sectoral  
model  that  showed  
radiating  wedges.  His  
model  shows  that  the  
central  business  district  
has  commercial  functions  
and  high  land  values,  while  
surrounding  areas  take  up  
the  industrial  and  
transport  functions.

In  this  book  you  will  Rind  the  concepts  of  legibility  and  
imageability,  and  a  study  of  the  cities  Los  Angeles,  New

This  book  tackles  the  issue  of  sprawling  and  
sustainability.  It  heavily  discusses  topography,  
landscapes  and  responsible  design.  It  also  greatly  
inRluenced  the  use  of  Geographic  Information  
Systems.

This  book  compiles  case  after  case  of  environmental  
sciences,  and  looks  speciRically  at  how  pollutants  
spread  from  a  bottle  of  insecticide  all  the  way  to  a  
water  body,  the  Rlying  robins,  or  a  mother’s  
breastmilk.  This  book  launched  an  environmental  
movement  around  the  world.

The  concept  of  three  
magnets  was  the  main  idea  
of  this  book.  It  contained  
the  ideals  of  a  slum-­‐free  
environment  with  high  
opportunities  for  
employment  and  social  
development.

This  powerful  book  changed  the  course  of  
traditional  physical  planning  into  human-­‐centric  
planning.  The  sociologist  author  openly  challenged  
how  everything  in  a  city  (highways  and  skyways)  
was  built  for  the  car  when  there  is  too  much  
evidence  that  people  are  the  heartbeat  of  the  city.  
She  also  championed  mixed  uses  and  diversity  in  
growth.  The  famous  notion  of  “ballet  on  the  streets”  
is  in  this  book.

This  economic  and  geographic  theory  says  that  the  
higher  the  order  and  the  larger  the  range  of  goods  
and  services,  the  longer  the  distance  people  are  
willing  to  travel  for  them.  This  theory  is  based  on  
the  market  as  a  center,  and  uses  the  concepts  of  
threshold  and  range.

“If  anyone  intentionally  pollutes  the  water  of  
another,  whether  the  water  of  a  spring,  or  collected  
in  reservoirs…;  if  the  accused  be  found  guilty  of  
injuring  the  water  by  deleterious  substances,  let  
him  not  only  pay  for  the  damages,  but  purify  the

APPLICATION OF THE PRINCIPLE

Philippine  Environmental  Code  (Presidential  Decree  1152),  
Section  20  discusses  clean-­‐up  operations  with  regard  to  
water  pollution:  

“It shall be the responsibility of the polluter to contain,

remove, and clean-up water pollution incidents at his
own expense. In case of his failure to do so, the
government agencies concerned shall undertake
containment, removal, and clean-up operations and
expenses incurred in said operations shall be against
the persons and/or entities responsible for such
pollution.”

It  is  a  green  island  surrounded  by  houses,  open  
spaces  and  pathways,  and  enclosed  by  roads.  This  
component  of  a  city  had  the  same  inspiration  as  
garden  cities  and  greenbelts  and  was  
conceptualized  in  the  New  Towns  Movement.

It  is  the  science  of  human  settlements.  It  has  Rive  
elements:  nature,  anthropos,  society,  shells,  and  
networks.  It  also  provides  the  units  from  anthropos  
(1  person)  to  ecumenopolis  (or  50  billion  people).  
This  is  a  multi-­‐disciplinary  science.  The  Greek
