peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1new centralities Explanation: It is clear that most Europeans do not live in the town centre. The Paris region has a population of 10 million, whereas only 2 million live in Paris itself. On the whole the British have a strong anti-urban bias and prefer to live away from the center of the city, in the country side, in the pursuit of the "rural idyll". In Finland, Alvar Aalto's architecture is typical of this desire of man to live close to nature: his buildings are inserted into the forest, which "dialogues" with the town. How can one describe the Ruhr (Thomas Sieverts work on the "Zwischenstadt") or the Randstatt, other than as dispersed urbanisations, recomposed around old country towns, nature or even new centralities. Everywhere in Europe, town centres are emptying and regaining new roles in relation to the whole range of urban areas. At the same time, businesses, and other economic activities ( warehousing and distribution centres, offices, industrial units,...) have developed mainly in these peripheral areas. Other than lower land costs, and the advantages of good accessibility along major circulations, they enjoy, as is often mentioned in their brochures, being in an agreable, green environment. It can be seen that there are many "forces" and "values" which sustain the constant evolution of these areas. Reference: http://www.qub.ac.uk/ep/research/costc10/desprog.html |

new urban cores Explanation: Came across this when looking for another use of "centralidades." Having read asker's explanation, this is what popped into my head.
