  • Griffintown Golroo Mofarrahi
    Griffintown Golroo Mofarrahi Post-professional graduate program in Cultural Landscapes School of Architecture McGill University August 2009 Report Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master ofArchitecture Golroo Mofarrahi, 2009 Abstract: This study originates from observation that urban neigh bourhoods are in continuous transition as the economy ebbs and flows. Residential neighbour- hoods will either collapse or redlined for new development as their residents start to move out (The Lure of the Local, 202). At the same time, coun- try towns are being abandoned, working class neighbourhoods are further ghettoized and steel towns are rusting in decay as “deserted downtowns con- trast with exurban building booms” (The Lure of the Local, 202). An example of this type of neighbourhood is Griffintown, which was once a working class neighbourhood squeezed between Saint Gabriel farm and the suburbs of Recollets and Victoria town in Montreal. Griffintown was an industrial and residential district. It was urbanised in the 19th century and gradually decayed through the 20th century. As an industrial district it saw the birth of very first large factories of Canada and was known as the industrial heartland of Canada. The area was of great interest to most developers, and various projects have been proposed for this area. This report addresses the follow­ ing question: How does the extent artefact system in Griffintown represent tangible evidence of the way of life before forced resettlement, and are there any artefacts worth preserving in Griffintown, an area slated for imminent development? I Résumé: Cette étude trouve son origine dans la notion selon laquelle les quartiers ur- bains sont engagés dans un cycle de croissance et de déclin soumis aux aléas de la conjoncture économique.

  • Identifying Urban Neighborhood Names Through User-Contributed Online Property Listings
    Article Identifying urban neighborhood names through user-contributed online property listings Grant McKenzie1, Zheng Liu2, Yingjie Hu3, and Myeong Lee2 1 McGill University, Montréal, Canada; 2 University of Maryland, College Park, USA; 3 University at Buffalo, Buffalo, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Version September 22, 2018 submitted to ISPRS Int. J. Geo-Inf. 1 Abstract: Neighborhoods are vaguely defined, localized regions that share similar characteristics. 2 They are most often defined, delineated, and named by the citizens that inhabit them rather than 3 municipal government or commercial agencies. The names of these neighborhoods play an important 4 role as a basis for community and sociodemographic identity, geographic communication, and 5 historical context. In this work we take a data-driven approach to identifying neighborhood names 6 based on the geospatial properties of user-contributed rental listings. Through a random forest 7 ensemble learning model applied to a set of spatial statistics for all n-grams in listing descriptions, 8 we show that neighborhood names can be uniquely identified within urban settings. We train a 9 model based on data from Washington, DC and test it on listings in Seattle, WA and Montréal, QC. 10 The results indicate that a model trained on housing data from one city can successfully identify 11 neighborhood names in another. In addition, our approach identifies less common neighborhood 12 names and suggestions alternative or potentially new names in each city. These findings represent a 13 first step in the process of urban neighborhood identification and delineation. 14 Keywords: neighborhood; neighborhood name; random forest; spatial statistics; housing; craigslist 15 PRE-PRINT 16 1.
