  • Satellite Towns
    24 Satellite Towns Introduction 'Satellite town' was a term used in the year immediately after the World War I as an alternative to Garden City. It subsequently developed a much wider meaning to include any town that is closely related to or dependent on a larger city. The first specific usage of the word ‘satellite town’ was in 1915 by G.R. Taylor in ‘ Satellite Cities’ referring to towns around Chicago, St. Louis and other American cities where industries had escaped congestion and crafted manufacturer’s town in the surrounding area. The new town is planned and built to serve a particular local industry, or as a dormitory or overspill town for people who work in and nearby metropolis. Satellite Town, can also be defined as a town which is self contained and limited in size, built in the vicinity of a large town or city and houses and employs those who otherwise create a demand for expansion of the existing settlement, but dependent on the parent city to some extent for population and major services. A distinction is made between a consumer satellite (essentially a dormitory suburb with few facilities) and a production satellite (with a capacity for commercial, industrial and other production distinct from that of the parent town, so a new town) town or satellite city is a concept of urban planning and referring to a small or medium-sized city that is near a large metropolis, but predates that metropolis suburban expansion and is atleast partially independent from that metropolis economically. CITIES, URBANISATION AND URBAN SYSTEMS 414 Satellite and Dormitory Towns The suburb of an urban centre where due to locational advantage the residential, industrial and educational centres are developed are known as "satellite or dormitory towns." It has a benefit of providing clean environment and spacious ground for residential and industrial expansion.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE * To be released immediately SUDESTADA JAKARTA LAUNCHES SUDESTADA HELADERIA 31 January 2021, Jakarta: Kicking off the New Year in high spirits, the Argentinian tastemaker, Sudestada Bar, Grill and Cafe, is excited to launch their gelato and sorbet line, Sudestada Heladeria. Taking pride in their Argentinian culinary traditions of craftsmanship and fine foods, Sudestada Heladeria’s gelato and sorbet are made fresh daily with the best ingredients available from all over the world. The word heladeria is the Spanish word for ice cream parlor. All around Argentina, there are heladerias or ice cream stalls at every corner. The Argentinian affinity to gelato is phenomenal. To use the world love is an understatement. In the early 1900s, Italians migrated to Argentina, bringing with them their secret recipes for their gelato. Over the years Argentinians have taken these recipes and have made them their own. The result is a soft and creamy gelato with a lot of density with a smooth mouth feel. Unlike normal ice cream, Argentinian gelato is malleable and is served in a cup or cone with sculpted high like a peak. Sudestada Heladeria brings this unique Argentinian gelato to Jakarta. And like any heladeia in Buenos Aires, don’t be surprised to see as many as 24 flavors at any given time. Don’t be overwhelmed but these flavors are intense and are usually packed with toppings and ingredients. Above every other flavor is Dulce de Leche, made with the same care and love as the dulce de leche milk confection you have already probably tasted at Sudestada.
