  • The Case of Qatar National Museum-Souq Waqif Corridor
    Article Place-Making of Transit Towns in Qatar: The Case of Qatar National Museum-Souq Waqif Corridor Khalida Marthya * , Raffaello Furlan , Labeeb Ellath , Maha Esmat and Rashid Al-Matwi Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, Qatar University, Doha 3263, Qatar; [email protected] (R.F.); [email protected] (L.E.); [email protected] (M.E.); [email protected] (R.A.-M.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Over the last two decades, Doha, the capital city of Qatar, has undergone rapid urbanization. The city has capitalized large-scale urban and infrastructural projects resulting in a loss of historical areas of heritage value to people. Recent construction of the Doha Metro is opening avenues for place- making of transit towns through a framework envisioned by the need to shape compact, livable and sustainable neighborhoods and to mitigate the effects of urbanization on valuable historical heritage sites. Due to its historic significance, the Qatar National Museum (QNM)-Souq Waqif corridor is the case study selected for exploring and defining a framework for a contextualized place-making transit-oriented development (TOD) model. The research design is structured by reviewing the literature about TODs and the need for place-making model in Qatar, followed by collecting visual data from municipal authorities, through site visits, and site observations. The data are then analyzed to propose a novel masterplan, rooted in key urban design components of place-making. The insights will contribute to proposals for context-driven design strategies to enhance livability of the site and to extend its application to other potential transit hubs in metropolitan Doha and in the Middle East.

  • The Role of Urban Planning in Containing an Epidemic: a Proposed Approach to Contain COVID-19 Using Space Syntax
    AbdelHakam,S.A. The Role of Urban Planning in Containing an Epidemic Case Study Report The Role of Urban Planning in Containing an Epidemic: A Proposed Approach to Contain COVID-19 Using Space Syntax Salma A. AbdelHakam, Faculty of Engineering, Fayoum University, Egypt Abstract Cities are urban areas where we live, communicate, and navigate. Each area has its own characteristics which greatly affect its users. Urban areas can gather, crowd, or segregate us. Thus, urban planning has an evident role in controlling human's behavior. This relation raises a question; in case of an epidemic, how can urban planning contribute to containing such a crisis? Recently, the world has been hit by a contagious disease which quickly turned into a pandemic known as COVID- 19. This pandemic has been attacking countries with their different aspects; economy, education, tourism, etc. This paper proposes a methodology to manage epidemic spread using Space Syntax. First, it will review the linkage between urban planning and epidemics. Then, it will propose an urban contagion scale to determine the probability of any urban space to transmit infectious diseases depending on its urban features. This scale will define which factors contribute to transmitting infectious diseases. Thereafter, this scale will be applied to four case study areas. Finally, results and conclusions will be listed. Keywords Urban planning – epidemics – Contagion Rate 1. Introduction “Health is a state of complete mental, social and physical well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity1.” Maintaining health is not only the responsibility of medical sectors, but also the responsibility of many different sectors.
