Parlo di punto fermo perché, in un momento come l’attuale, do - 2 ve da anni il mondo musicale e dello spettacolo sembra sempre più ripiegarsi fra le pieghe dello star system, questo festival risponde credendo fermamente ai progetti e alla qualità. Personalmente ho sempre creduto che un’autentica politica cul- turale non possa prescindere dalla qualità, se occorre anche a costo di non badare ai meri numeri. In realtà, Vicenza Jazz ha senza dubbio le spalle forti da potersi permettere il lusso di rad- doppiare i progetti speciali e le produzioni, e il programma 2012 lo mostra in maniera del tutto evidente. Questa edizione mi sembra anche, infine, quasi una piccola con- clusione dell’arco dell’ultimo quadriennio, da quando cioè ci siamo ritrovati con Riccardo Brazzale, Luca Trivellato e Luca Ber - ton per programmare un ciclo che potesse ridare linfa e vitalità a una grande idea nata tanti anni prima; linfa e vitalità che oggi - grazie anche all’apporto del gruppo Aim e di Fondazione Cari - ve rona - siamo felici di poter dire di aver dato.

  • Urban Planning
    Leonid Lavrov, Elena Molotkova, Andrey Surovenkov — Pages 29–42 ON EVALUATING THE CONDITION OF THE SAINT PETERSBURG HISTORIC CENTER DOI: 10.23968/2500-0055-2020-5-3-29-42 Urban Planning ON EVALUATING THE CONDITION OF THE SAINT PETERSBURG HISTORIC CENTER Leonid Lavrov, Elena Molotkova*, Andrey Surovenkov Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering Vtoraja Krasnoarmeyskaya st., 4, Saint Petersburg, Russia *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Introduction: This study was prompted by the introduction of the urban environment quality index into the system operated by the Russian Ministry of Construction Industry, Housing and Utilities Sector (Minstroy). We note that the ˝environment-centric˝ methodologies were already worked on and applied to housing studies in Leningrad as far back as during the 1970–1980s, and that the insights from these studies can now be used for analyzing the current state of the urban environment. Purpose of the study and methods: The information reviewed in this article gives us the first glimpse of the tangible urban environment in the historic center of Saint Petersburg. Many features of this part of the city are reminiscent of other European metropolises, but the fact that the historic center is split into three parts by vast waterways, that the construction began from the ground up in the middle of the wilderness, and that the active urban development phase lasted only a century and a half (from the 1760s to the 1910s), has a major part to play. Results: We use quantitative data to describe the features of the Saint Petersburg historic center and compare our findings to the features of European metropolises, across such parameters as spatial geometry, transportation and pedestrian links, and environmental conditions.
