“…Banerjee (2007) já havia identificado a pequena expansão na proposição de parques e sistemas de espaços livres nas grandes cidades dos EUA nas últimas décadas, principalmente quando comparada ao crescimento de um século atrás. A criação de espaços livres não está acompanhando o crescimento da população, e há desigualdade na distribuição dos espaços livres urbanos quando comparada as áreas verdes dos condomínios de classe média e alta, nas áreas mais afastadas, e as áreas densamente ocupadas das zonas centrais das cidades.…”

RESUMOEste artigo discute as implicações da transferência de responsabilidade da proposição e gestão dos espaços coletivos, da esfera pública para a esfera privada, e qual o impacto e/ou contribuição dessa transferência para a paisagem urbana e a qualidade de vida. O objeto de estudo é o sistema de bonificação utilizado em Nova York para criação de espaços de propriedade privada de uso coletivo, denominados POPS (Privately Owned Public Spaces). A pesquisa realizou levantamento quantitativo e qualitativo com base nos preceitos teóricos de Jan Gehl (2006), na Park Avenue. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que as praças corporativas dos edifícios contribuem para o sistema de espaços livres para uso público e enobrecem a paisagem urbana local. Porém, a apropriação dos espaços livres pela população depende do grau de acessibilidade e permeabilidade visual entre os POPS e as circulações públicas, as calçadas. Palavras-chave: Espaços públicos de propriedade privada. Paisagem urbana. Espaço público. ABSTR AC T This article discusses the implications of transferring the provision and management of collective public places from the public to the private sphere as well as the impact and/or contribution of this transference to the urban landscape and the citizens' quality of life.

“…No surprise, that in a short while most of the shops changed to cafes with a much higher prices than before. So the street experienced a classic problem of public spaces in the capitalist cities: privatization and commercialization [7,25]. In recent years during the warm season almost all the space of the street is occupied by the summer terraces of the cafes, leaving almost no place for other activities but visiting the cafes.…”

Abstract:The article discusses the post-socialist developments of urban public space in St. Petersburg, Russia. The city with a historic center protected by the UNESCO World Heritage status in combination with the Soviet legacy of lack of public participation is facing the problem of public space development. There are two controversial concepts of urban space represented in the public discourse that are analyzed in the article: the concept of a 'museum city' and the 'city for people'. The historic context of transformation (the Soviet period of the strict divide of public and private, and the postsocialist era of individualization and the decay of the public) is used to explain the current debate and difficulties of building an inclusive and tolerant model of public space in St. Petersburg.

“…The creation of pseudo-public spaces (Banerjee, 2001;Dovey, 1999), such as shopping centres, thematic parks and other private spaces with public access, urges the need for new types of management. The control is private although the use is public.…”

“…More recently, however, public spaces have been steadily losing their capacity to promote collective celebrations in order to strengthen social links and community values. Urban dispersion, globalization, privatization and new communicational technologies are some of the reasons for a global decline in the quality and liveliness of public spaces (Banerjee, 2001;Cunha, 2001). The larger scale of urban projects and corresponding profits and, at the same time, the steady reduction of the financial capacity of local authorities paves the way to the supremacy of the private sector as providers of public goods and services.…”

Contemporary cities have witnessed the emergence of new real-estate products in which gated communities and closed condominiums (CCs) can be included. The proliferation of these urban products is worldwide, with similar patterns that are analysed in this paper according to five perspectives of analysis: physical, economic, social, political and cultural. These perspectives crosscut some of the main issues of discussion of the contemporary urban debate associated with private residential developments. These developments seem to appeal to an increasing number of social groups and have been able to adapt to different planning systems. With a smaller scale, these developments emerged in Portugal in the form of CCs, and are analysed in a case study in Greater Oporto. The purpose of this paper is to present the Portuguese singularities of this phenomenon in comparison with the worldwide dimension. In our case study we find some important particularities strongly associated with the Portuguese planning system. Some of these particularities have negative impacts on the surrounding urban landscape. As a result, CCs demand specific planning policies to counteract the negative consequences they are likely to generate in local social and urban fabrics. In the absence of these policies, CCs, as well as other private residential developments, are likely to contribute further to an increasingly fragmented and divided urban landscape.
