RESIDENTS’ RELATIONSHIP WITH THE TERRITORY AND THE SPATIAL PLANNING OF RESIDENTIAL HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS
Journal Title: Miscellanea Geographica - Regional Studies on Development - Year 2010, Vol 14, Issue 1
Abstract
Residential housing developments built using the prefabricated method during the 1970s undoubtedly have their very own specificities. There exists a wide variety of opinions of the housing developments themselves, as well as of their social condition. The aim of this article is to identify residents’ relationships with the residential housing development territory and to demonstrate the variety of those relationships as conditioned by various types of spatial planning. Various planning elements were taken in to account: building layout, green spaces, and recreational grounds. Residents’ relationships with the territory are conveyed by individual residents’ evaluations of their residential housing development (housing development evaluation, feelings of belonging) and external manifestations of attachment to the development (local involvement). The described topics are demonstrated using the examples of 4 residential housing developments in Warsaw.
