In a chaotic case, prisoners cannot be observed; in a parallel case, one needs to oversee a multitude of lanes

Explore the latest questions and answers in Urban History, and find Urban History experts. Publications (28,073). In a chaotic case, prisoners cannot be observed; in a parallel case, one needs to oversee a multitude of lanes. There are just 2 cases I found, where a fan-shaped layout was used, where a single observation tower in the pivot of such fan did all the jailman's job. Both were designed as master camps, for others to copy: Kottbus 2 during Great war, and Sachsenhausen during the Third Reich.

This article delineates the history of urban planning, a technical and political process concerned with the use of land and design of the urban environment, including air, water, and the infrastructure passing into and out of urban areas such as transportation and distribution networks. The history of urban planning runs parallel to the history of the city, as planning is in evidence at some of the earliest known urban sites.

This book is a comprehensive narrative history of Cincinnati's lovely historic architecture. It is not a catalog, per se, but the organization of the chapters into 12 walking tours, supported by maps locating all discussed sites, makes the book something of a hybrid between an architectural catalog and a narrative history. In fact, I would call this book a narrative history of Cincinnati in the context of its buildings.

The geographic coverage is within the Cincinnati city limits, with the small exception of a diversion into riverfront Covington, KY. The author has done a lovely job of finding and describing the noteworthy architecture throughout the city... in words. The photography is extremely thin, with only the most exceptional sites attracting a small monochrome photograph.

The two chapters dedicated to the Over-the-Rhine neighborhood are worth the price of the book, and could serve as a faithful guide to protecting and preserving that important part of Cincinnati.

Recommended for architectural historians and serious local historians, this book does not serve well as a casual browser.

The bibliography and index are particularly good, and this book should be considered essential for all Cincinnati historians.

This is a great book to help one discover Cincinnati and its neighborhoods. There are 12 or 13 walking tours plus one driving tour. 2/3 of the walking tours take place in the city and the other half in the suburbs. All tours have a map for easy reference and the route is clearly spelled out.
Each tour is also enlivened with John Clubbe's engaging commentary on architecture, urban planning, and Cincinnati history. I am a native Cincinnatian and I learned more from this book than any other source about the region's often colorful history.
In my opinion, the best tour is the Mount Auburn tour. This is a beautiful part of our city that many people who have lived here all their life have never visitied. I also enjoyed the west side of downton tour and the driving tour.
The only drawback to this book is it was published 12 years ago. It could use an update. However, as Cincinnatians know, nothing much ever changes here and the book's tours hold up well even with it being over a decade old.
Buy this book. I guarantee you won't be disappointed
