On New York's grounddense, diverse and sustainable /[electronic resource] :by Vítor Oliveira. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2025. - xxv, 245 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm. - Urban book series,2365-7588. - Urban book series..

Human settlements and the ground plan concept -- Part 1: On the ground plan and building fabric -- A brief historico-geographical reading of New York -- Street systems, plot patterns and building arrangements -- The ground plan's density and the building fabric's diversity -- Part 2: On the ground plan and Socioeconomic and environmental dimensions -- On social diversity -- On economic diversity -- On environmental sustainability -- Part 3: On the ground plan's change over time -- Analysing the past ground plan -- Planning the future ground plan -- If the ground plan made it there, it will make it anywhere.

This book explores a simple but powerful idea. The way we organize the ground of our cities impacts everyday life. In other words, the street systems, plot patterns and building arrangements we lay down on the ground influence, first, the main three-dimensional aspects of building fabrics and then, socioeconomic diversity and environmental sustainability. This scientific evidence is relevant not only to the analysis of past and present settlements, but also to the planning and design of future cities. This idea is explored in the world's first megacity, a place with a singular role in the last two centuries of humankind's urban history and with unique contemporary dynamics - New York. We argue that if the ground plan can make it there, it will make it anywhere.
