423 p. : il., gráf. ; 1 documento PDF In every city, the urban spaces that form the public realm account for about one-third of the city’s total land area, on average. Despite this significance, the potential for these public-space assets to transform urban life and city functioning is often overlooked for many reasons: other pressing city priorities arising from rapid urbanization, poor urban planning, and financial constraints. The degradation of public spaces resources and exacerbating various city problems, in contrast, the cities that invest in the creation of human-centered, environmentally sustainable, economically vibrant, and socially inclusive places perform better. They implement smart and sustainable strategies across their public space asset life cycles to yield returns on investment far exceeding monetary costs, ultimately enhancing city livability, resilience, and competitiveness. This book identifies—through the lens of asset management—a rich palette of creative and innovative strategies that every city can undertake to plan, finance, and manage both government-owned and privately owned public spaces. adult / Jon Kher Kaw, Hyunji Lee, Sameh Wahba Bibliografía: p. 348-386 This work is available under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 IGO license (CC BY 3.0 IGO) Ciudades inteligentes urban spaces policies new technologies smart cities public spaces 978-1-4648-1493-8 (PDF) https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/handle/10986/33186 https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/handle/10986/33186 This work is available under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 IGO license (CC BY 3.0 IGO) ES-MaONT 200221 20200302101334.0 00005671
