dc.description.abstract | The main aim of this Thesis is to determine whether the French district in Tübingen, broadly regarded as a model of urban sustainability, really is more sustainable than a similar, ‗typical‘ quarter; and to unravel the planning measures that led to the potential differences between the two. In order to achieve this aim, the French district was compared with a similar, but ‗typical‘ district (‗Quartier am Turm‘ in Heidelberg), primary via means of GIS analysis and archival research. A custom-made framework, including 21 indicators divided into 12 sustainability categories, was devised for the comparative analysis. Results have shown that the French district performs better than the ‗typical‘ district for all 21 indicators used for the comparative analysis; and fares considerably better than the latter in 9 urban sustainability areas (consisting of 16 indicators). These positive results can be explained through the implementation of 7 categories of ‗unorthodox‘ planning measures for the development of the French district. | en_US |
