Research on the Influence of Postwar Reconstruction Planning on Urban Vitality - A Comparison Between Hiroshima and Beirut

本研究继续探讨战后重建规划对城市活力的影响。除了贝鲁特和广岛外，这项研究还为第二次世界大战后勒阿弗尔的重建提供了线索。这三个案例研究提供了截然不同的重建方法：新自由主义重建的贝鲁特市中心，市民主导的重建广岛本通商业街，和现代主义思想驱动的重建勒阿弗尔市中心。本研究特别关注商业空间，研究了勒阿弗尔市中心主要商业街芸香街巴黎的现代主义重建。通过对文献和规划文件的调查，追溯勒阿弗尔的发展，阐明了巴黎芸香街的历史价值，这增加了它作为市政厅和港口之间联系的纪念碑价值。比较战前的城市中心布局与战后的规划建议，阐明了重建下的大空间转换。然而，巴黎芸香仍然是主要的商业街，规划部门在规划和建筑层面上都对商业空间给予了关注，制定了商店分配的指导方针，并在巴黎芸香增加了一个双向柱廊。

This research has continued to examine the influence of post-war reconstruction planning on urban vitality. In addition to Beirut and Hiroshima, this research has shed light on the reconstruction of Le Havre after The Second World War. The three case studies provide contrasting approaches of reconstruction: a neoliberal reconstruction of Beirut City Centre, citizens-led reconstruction of Hiroshima Hondori Commercial Street, and the modernist thought-driven reconstruction of Le Havre City Centre. Giving particular attention to commercial spaces, this research examined the modernist-driven reconstruction of Rue de Paris as the main commercial street in the city centre of Le Havre. Based on survey of literature and planning documents, tracing Le Havre’s development clarified the historical value of Rue de Paris which adds to its monumental value as the connection between the city hall and the port. Comparing pre-war layout of the city centre with post-war planning proposals clarifies the large spatial transformation under reconstruction. However, Rue de Paris was maintained as the main commercial street, and planning authorities have given attention to commercial spaces on both planning and architecture level by setting guidelines for shop allocation and adding a two-sides colonnade to Rue de Paris.
