Abstract

A survey of all the open spaces designated in the Aminabad, Lucknow revealed an obvious lack of consideration towards the preservation of the public open spaces, and their physical/functional integration into the city, despite the high density of the urban fabric. With the increases in the pressure of the population in urban areas, there is a corresponding increase in encroachment on open spaces. If we analyze the situation of the site, Aminabad, we realize that the decision taken long back, with emphasis on providing the automobile on the network of Aminabad, destroyed the convenience of the street. As a result of this decision, the street activity and visually stimulating streetscapes have broken down into loose incoherent sprawls. We may today rue the result, but better would be the attempts to correct some anomalies, however remote in character and intentions. This paper critically examines the present situation of Aminabad, Lucknow and a puts forward a brief proposal for revitalization of the market of Aminabad.
