As a result much of what the French had created began to decay lying unused by the new nation and abandoned by the French, leaving behind what were described as ghosts. These ghosts were abandoned buildings and railways throughout the country. There were other ghosts besides the abandoned infrastructure of the French. They had in fact influenced the shape of cities and architecture. In this research I intend to answer the following question: How does a newly independent former colonial capital city use urban design plans to create a new image representing the new nation? To answer this question I will explore the attempts of Conakry, Guinea to use an urban design plan (1963) to redistribute land and resources to create a new post- independence image.
