  • A Study of the Villages of Mariemont and Fairfax
    UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI Date:___________________ I, _________________________________________________________, hereby submit this work as part of the requirements for the degree of: in: It is entitled: This work and its defense approved by: Chair: _______________________________ _______________________________ _______________________________ _______________________________ _______________________________ Understanding the Relationships in Community Space: A Study of the Villages of Mariemont and Fairfax A thesis submitted to Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF COMMUITY PLANNING in the School of Planning of the College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning 2009 by Emily Heintzelman Thesis Committee: Chair-Mayhar Arefi PhD. Second Faculty Member- Frank Russell, A.I.A. Abstract It is a planner’s role to not only address the problems of a city, but to try to understand the city and its many components. Addressing these problems requires an in-depth awareness of the neighborhoods, communities and other cultural elements, which make up the city. Therefore, in its general sense, the purpose of this thesis is to understand a community setting in a deeper, more holistic fashion. This was completed though comparing the Villages of Mariemont and Fairfax in Ohio. There were several reasons as to why the Villages of Mariemont and Fairfax were chosen for this study, the overall theme being the differences present between the two communities, even though they reside in the same region. Thus, another purpose behind the study is to determine and analyze the nuances of the differences and thoroughly investigate the relationships present within the communities. To gain a deeper understanding of the two communities, Henri Lefebvre’s Triad of space is used to examine the mental (conceived), physical (perceived) and social (lived) facets that exist within a community space.
