Growing urbanization has caused the emergence of urban voids which are enigmatic places that can potentially change city dynamics. The research paper “Unveiling Urban Voids: A Comprehensive Evaluation of City Centre Chandigarh” examines some overlooked spaces in cities referred to as urban voids with a specific focus on City Centre Chandigarh. The study aims to bridge theoretical urban design principles and practical urban development through exploring how these gaps could add value to the city’s functionality, beauty, and overall livability. This research identifies, and evaluates urban voids prevalent in this locality using physical analysis as well as community engagement. It contains findings that reveal their subtle features, problems and opportunities followed by practical propositions for building up these environs. Consequently, the paper posits that this finding underscores their needful presence among planners and designers when planning for sustainable development of cities hence the significance of recognizing them for what they are really worth.
Abstract [Hindi]
शहरी खाली स्थान शहरीकरण के बढ़ते बीच शहरी गतिशीलता को बदलने की क्षमता वाले रहस्यमय क्षेत्रों के रूप में उभरते हैं। "अनवेलिंग अर्बन वॉइड्स: ए कॉम्प्रिहेंसिव इवैल्युएशन ऑफ सिटी सेंटर चंडीगढ़" नामक अध्ययन शहरी परिदृश्य के भीतर उपेक्षित स्थानों, जिन्हें शहरी खाली स्थान कहा जाता है, का विश्लेषण करता है, खासकर सिटी सेंटर चंडीगढ़ के संदर्भ में। यह शोध इन अंतरालों के शहर की उपयोगिता, सौंदर्यशास्त्र और समग्र जीवन-योग्यता में संभावित योगदान की जांच करके सैद्धांतिक शहरी डिजाइन सिद्धांतों को वास्तविक शहरी विकास के साथ एकीकृत करने का इरादा रखता है। यह शोध एक पद्धति का उपयोग करके क्षेत्र में शहरी खाली स्थानों को उजागर और विश्लेषित करता है जिसमें भौतिक विश्लेषण और सामुदायिक सहभागिता शामिल है। निष्कर्ष सूक्ष्म विशेषताओं, चुनौतियों और अवसरों को इंगित करते हैं जो इन क्षेत्रों से जुड़े हैं, जिन्हें शहरी विकास के लिए व्यावहारिक सिफारिशों के साथ प्रस्तुत किया जाएगा। अंत में, अध्ययन इस क्षेत्र में योगदान देता है, इस बात पर जोर देते हुए कि शहरी खाली स्थानों को पहचानने और अनुकूलित करने की आवश्यकता है ताकि उन्हें शहरी केंद्रों के सतत विकास के महत्वपूर्ण घटक के रूप में मान्यता दी जा सके, जिसका शहरी योजनाकारों और डिजाइनरों के लिए व्यावहारिक प्रभाव है।
