UK: Екологічна ситуація з водними ресурсами Дніпра, ландшафтом у межах міста і на прилеглих територіях, в умовах урбанізації та зростаючої чисельності міського населення критична. Реконструкція та реабілітація прирічкової території в межах великого міста є особливо актуальним завданням. На основі проведеного опрацювання наукових досліджень та аналізу державних програм пропонується узагальнити досвід, розглянувши основні напрями містобудівної організації прирічкових територій.
EN: Study of the functioning of riverside ecosystem considered in a number of scientific papers, which define a number of approaches in their organization. Reconstruction and rehabilitation of riverside areas provides various opportunities and makes them very attractive to architects and urban planners in solving social and environmental problems. The main purpose of the article is to identify the main techniques in riverside areas. The main objective of this article is to prove scientifically the place, role and importance of riverside areas in the structure of the city. The article is given a comprehensive analysis of research in riverside areas and techniques necessary to determine the priority reforms in the context of international experience designing riverine areas. Research of riverside areas in the city dedicated to the scientific work of some scholars related to urban development areas of expertise. The river network of the city was considered in terms of architectural and planning, environmental, hydrological, historical, technical, economic and legal issues.
Waterfront is, by definition, the land alongside a body of water, or the dockland district of a town or a city. However, the waterfront should not be simply considered as a line, but should be more correctly envisaged as a network of places, functions, additions and hinges between the coast and the city, between the port and urban activities. The waterfront has to be imagined as a concentration of functions that can be productive, cultural, relational, recreational, residential and public. It is not a closed and protective area, but an osmotic interface, with a permeable perimeter. A waterfront cannot be considered as a local hub, but more correctly as a crossroad of infrastructure strips on river and land that run across, that nourish it: the core of an increasingly planetary network of relational energies. Finally, a waterfront should not to be seen just story and not just future, but is a fertile synthesis of history and perspectives: it is a place in which informed historic knowledge nurtures visions for the future, and which the ambition of strategies produces an effective interpretation of the past.
So today there are a number of scientific papers and recommendations devoted to improving the ecological condition of natural and urban systems, but they do not provide a holistic solution and specialize in specific conditions and terrain. When analyzing scientific publications, we see that the theory and practice relies mainly on landscape, economic and hygienic approach uses mostly multifunctional approach in assessing the environment, but urban landscape approach is not disclosed in scientific papers. Consequently, the relationships of the cities with their waterfronts has become, nowadays, a central topic and a paradigmatic element of the urban planning policy. Thanks to the developing of global trends, which are creating attractive urban waterfront environments for the 21st century, we could see the process of changing the face of port cities, and of other cities on water, in many countries around the world.
