Navigating the City


movement within the city This chapter starts with the analysis of the different ways of travelling into the Hobart City area. The three main transportation methods include bus, car and bicycle. Upon reaching the city centre, they get off from their means of transportation and turn into pedestrians. However, the grid-configuration of the city is car-oriented. Therefore, the experience of the pedestrians is being compromised for the convenience of the automobile traffic network. Within the city, there are in-between spaces that are left vacant without any activities. These “Lost space� can be found in vacant multi-storey carpark buildings and laneways in the CBD. They are having lots of unexplored potentials, but are often neglected by the pedestrians due to lack of activities. Due to the above reasons, the speculation towards the future development of the Hobart City area would be to turn the lost spaces into landmarks to improve the legibility of pedestrians within the city.

How can “lost space” between transportation facilities perform as the most fundamental aspect in promoting urban legibility for pedestrians in Hobart?

Figure 1: Photograph of Elizabeth Street Hobart looking north, 1879

The contexts and characters of Hobart city have been changing through time. In the past, the streets were wider and the buildings were shorter. There were more open area and less back lanes between buildings. The city had better legibility due to reasons such as iconic buildings being able to be seen from far and streets being wider for better views. The city was not car-oriented. The cars moved slower and people were able to move around freely. The city was highly accessible by pedestrians. On the other hand, the current Hobart city consists of modern buildings with similar outlooks. The height and density of the city are not to human scale. Also, socially inactive back lanes are created within the gaps of the buildings. These spaces are unsafe and lacking comfort for pedestrians to stay by. However, the “lost space” within the city area actually contains strong potential due to its location and characters. They can act as short cuts for pedestrians to walk through the city. By activating the lost spcaes, the process improves the urban legibility for pedestrians moving within Hobart city area.

theoretical framework

what is lost space? Lost space, as defined by Roger Trancik (1986), refers to urban open space that has lost the values and meanings in the city due to some reasons. Lost space is the leftover unstructured landscape at the base of high-rise buildings or the unused sunken plaze away from the flow of pedestrian activity in the city. Lost spaces are the surface parking lots that ring the core of the cities and sever the connection between the commercial center and residential areas. They are the no-man’s lands along the edges of freeways that nobody cares about maintaining, much less using. Lost spaces are also the abandoned waterfronts, train yards, vacated military sites, and industrial complexes that have moved out to the suburbs for easier access and lower taxes. They are the residual areas between districts and loosely composed commercial strips that emerge without anyone realizing it. Generally speaking, lost spaces are the undesirable urban areas that are in need of redesign, making no positive contribution to the surroundings or users. They are ill-defined, without measurable boudaries, and fail to connect elements in a coherent way. However, they offer tremendous opportunities to the designer for urban redevelopment and creative infill and for rediscovering the many hidden resources in our cities.


dependence on automobile

modern architectural design

Dependence on the automobile is inevitable nowadays, since it is so deeply integrated into our life. It has resulted in an urban environment in which highways and parking lots are the predominant types of open space. This has consequently cause the lost of cultural meaning and human purpose in the public space.

Modern architectural design tends to ignore or deny the importance of street space, urban squares and gardens, and other important outdoor rooms. The space between buildings are rarely designed. They are likely to become separated from their context.

The street lost its social meaning as a multipurpose space. Neighbourhoods and districts no longer interacted, but became isolated. In the end the desire for order and mobility has undermined the diversity and richness of urban public life.

The modern city has become the environment of buildings surrounded with car parking space. Activities on the streets have little to do with the functions of the buildings. With the lose of a collective sense of the meaning of public space, people have also lost the sense that there are rules for connecting parts through the design of outdoor space.

private over public interest

changing land use

Private buildings ususally consist of a boundary that is defined by fence or wall. It is a sharp change from an public environment to a public one. The city of collective spaces is transformed into a city of private icons. In modern city, each architecture is the responsibility of a different public or private organization, and there is no unity of the entire environment.

The relocation of industry, obsolete transportation facilities, vacated commercial or residential buildings would create vast areas of wasted or underused space within cities. These sites offer enormous potential for reclaimation as mixed-use areas.

negative space as pedestrian networks for transport infrastructure The negative space refers to the space being left over after modern buildings are built on the ground. It is because modern buildings usually have a strong barrier between interior and exterior. Thus neglected the space outside the building block. The negative space are usually the laneways, backlanes, unused courtyards and the routes for escape in case of fire. Pedestrians do not stay at these spaces as there is no activities or active functions in them. Thus, these negative spaces become deserted. potential The negative spaces may not be unutilised sites. Very often they are used for car parking, or as a short cut through the lot. They are across the entire Hobart CBD area as indicated in the diagram on the right. Being located in the CBD area with high land value, they have potential to create more positive contributions to the surroundings and the pedestrians through them. Retail shops can make use of the pedestrian flow in the negative space to create more shop frontage area, instead of focusing in the frontage on the main roads. Secondly, the negative spaces have the potential of expanding the pedestrian networks from the main roads. Since the main roads are more designed for cars than pedestrians, the negative spaces have the potential of bringing the pedestrian flow from the main roads into them. Thus, the negative spaces would then become more lively and vibrant. More positive contributions would be made to the surroundings and the pedestrians through them. existing pedestrian networks The Elizabeth Mall is one of the city’s major retail centres in Hobart CBD. Originally a part of Elizabeth Street, the portion of the street was pedestrianised in 1970’s and become the city’s main pedestrian thoroughfare, and central nerve of the Central Business District. The semioutdoor environment in the Elizabeth Mall encourages street activities to happen, making it more lively and vibrant. Carpark buildings tend to create pedestrian flow towards them. Therefore, it is wise to plan retails along the way to the carpark buildings. The Centrepoint Shopping Centre and Trafalgar Shopping Centre are examples that benefits from the pedestrian flow towards the carpark blocks. The Cat & Fiddle Arcade is located in the centre of Hobart CBD. It is surrounded by Elizabeth Street, Collins Street, Murray Street, and Liverpool Street. Not only it serve the function as a retail shopping centre, it links up the streets surrounding it and provide convenience to the pedestrians.

making use of negative space Among the many negative spaces that scatter within Hobart CBD, those that have more potential are identified in the map in light green. These are chosen because they are located next to the multi-storey carparks. Pedestrians can use them as short-cuts after parking their cars in the multi-storey carparks. The areas marked with dark green are the existing pedestrian circulation spaces. Working together with the negative space with potential, they can be linked up and provide a conprehensive network for the pedestrians of Hobart city.

monofunctional city zoning Hobart Public Spaces Public Life 2010 by Gehl architects identified Hobart as a monofunctionally zoned city suffering from the modernistic planning ideals of the post war period. Different functions are clustered in the respective parts of the city, which cause the areas to be active only at a limited time periods. Pedestrians only appears in business and shopping areas in daytime, and waterfront area at night. During the other periods of the day, these areas are deserted. This situation shows that the mono-functionally zoned city is not be fully utilised. Lost spaces are formed in the different parts of the city during the respective period of the day that the areas are deserted. This should not be the case in the Hobart CBD area that has the most land value in Hobart. It shows that there is a strong potential in order to utilise the Hobart CBD fully. low diversity of users The monofunctionally zoned Hobart city has a low diversity of users in each areas. It is because of the restricted diversity of functions that cause the lack of interests for users in different functional groups to enter the different zones. Generally, there is more diversity of users in the waterfront area than the Hobart City CBD. lacking pedestrians The monofunctionally zoned city is lacking the natural surveillance through the presence of inhabitants and visitors. This has caused the city to be perceived as unsafe and uncomfortable areas when deserted. Introducing mixed uses into it creates areas that are stimulating and vibrant, with multitude of people and activities occuring at different times of the day, week and year. The amount of pedestrians on the street would then be greatly increased due to the introduction of different interests in the city area. The potential of Hobart CBD would then be fully utilised.

potential of car parking space The diagram on the left shows both the multi-storey car park buildings and outdoor car park compounds in the Hobart CBD. They are scattered in the different areas of the city. There are less multi-storey carparks than the outdoor carparks in terms of the number of compounds. However, the multistorey carparks form big building blocks in the CBD which are dedicated for motor vehicles. In the day time, the CBD are filled with people and cars. However, the CBD is deserted in night time since there is little places of interest and activities. Therefore, the car parking spaces in the CBD can be transformed into spaces holding events and activities instead of being deserted at night. Working together with the other improvments of pedestrian network, it would then bring out the potential of these car parking spaces and provide more positive contribution to the public.
