Infrastructural Urbanism: Addressing The In-between

Architecture and public spaces are well-accepted and often prestigious components of the urban realm. But what about technical infrastructure? Although the interdependence of infrastructure and urban development has been a central topic in urban planning, infrastructure as a design element plays a comparatively subordinate role. The book discusses spatial design implications of technical and transport infrastructure. The authors introduce projects of various scales in cities such as New York, London, and Stockholm to demonstrate that infrastructure generates its own category of urban territory.
