Das Basler Büro Steinmann & Schmid zählt zu den jungen Schweizer Büros, die sich überregional einen Namen gemacht haben. Die Umgestaltung des Bahnhofsquartiers und der Neubau des Bahnhofs in Visp, der nach der Eröffnung des Lötschberg-Basistunnels 2007 für den Nord-Süd-Verkehr in der Schweiz und in Europa eine zentrale Bedeutung als Hauptverkehrsknotenpunkt erlangt hat, ist ihr bisher größtes Projekt. Das Buch zeigt neben zahlreichen Bildern und Plänen des neuen Bahnhofsgebäudes, das im Dezember 2007 nach achtjähriger Planungs- und Bauzeit in Betrieb genommen wurde, den Entstehungsprozess dieses im Oberwallis einmaligen Großprojekts. Im Kontext des Bestandes und der städtebaulichen Situation werden Entwurfs- und Bauprozess, das fertige Gebäude von innen und außen sowie seine Auswirkungen auf das Quartier anhand von Skizzen, Planmaterial und Fotografien auf ebenso informative wie attraktive Weise präsentiert und analysiert.

This book addresses the role of railways in urban development. The central aim is to inquire into how especially the development of high-speed rail and light rail links will affect European cities. The analyses are carried out with special attention given to the broader institutional environment of the railway system, including the shift toward privatised railway companies, internationalisation, the occurrence of market and government failures in land markets, and private-public partnerships in the development of railway station areas. The essence of the plans to invest in railway stations is that railway stations are not considered merely as nodes where people transfer from one vehicle to another, but also as places where spatial concentrations of high value activity are recognised as having a positive impact on cities. The development of real estate near stations is increasingly seen as a negotiation process in which both public and private actors play certain roles to revitalise central urban areas.

"More than a century before airlines placed it at the center of their systems, Chicago was already the nation's transportation hub -from Union Station, passengers could reach major cities on the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts as well as countless points in between. Chicago's history is tightly linked to its railroads. Railroad historian Fred Ash begins in the mid 1800's, when Chicago dominated Midwest trade and was referred to as the "Railroad Capital of the World." During this period, swings in the political climate significantly modified the relationship between the local government and its largest landholders, the railroads. From here, Ash highlights competition at the turn of the twentieth century between railroad companies that greatly influenced Chicago's urban landscape. Profiling the fascinating stories of businessmen, politicians, workers, and immigrants whose everyday lives were affected by the bustling transportation hub, Ash documents the impact Union Station had on the growing city and the entire Midwest. Featuring more than 100 photographs of the famous Beaux-Arts architecture, Chicago Union Station is a beautifully illustrated tribute to one of America's overlooked treasures."--Provided by publisher.

Urban quality is generally considered increasingly important for urban competitiveness. This study therefore investigates the role of urban quality in large-scale urban redevelopment, which is here elaborated in terms of Richard Florida's concept of quality of place.

The development of railway stations and their surroundings is an emerging feature in current urban projects. Based on a series of the most inspiring contemporary European examples of station redevelopment, this book will help planners and urban designers understand the specific and complex nature of station locations. Based on their extensive research, the authors, pioneers of studies in the field in the last few years, harness and expand the body of knowledge and present guiding principles and conditions for successful implementation of such planning projects.
