All cities are transforming due to major factor of globalization, but cities cannot be universal. Every city, for that matter every neighborhood has its own identity and local traditional, societal parameters which affect the transformation. Cities in India have been transformed from either cluster of villages, industrial centers, enjoying historical importance, tourism importance etc. In all cases of transformation, there is diversity within cities. Arch The research paper is an effort to develop a perspective and recognize the diversity within city, among and within settlements. Human cultural features differ from city to city and cultural aspects change over time. Hence the researcher paper has developed method for comparing Urban Transformation of different locations of a city which can be implemented for any city of the developing world.
To study Urban Transformation, five elements were considered in this research paper, the first element was Architecture and Urban Planning, second was Population, third was Policies, fourth Legislation and fifth was Economy. The study comprises of ground observations and analysis of questionnaire, which is prepared to have residents’ view regarding Urban Transformation. The questionnaire is weighed in five point Likert scale. Later the results are subjected to ANOVA analysis for testing the hypotheses.
The ANOVA results show that although there is change in types and levels of transformation of different neighborhoods, the overall transformations are not significantly different. Urban Transformation of individual areas therefore, maintains pace with city’s overall Transformation. This has been statistically proven in this research paper.
