LINH DAM NEW TOWN -SOLUTION FOR THE HIGH-DENSITY DEVELOPMENT OF NEW SETTLEMENTS IN THE SOUTH-WEST OF HANOI
Keywords
High-density development, New Town, Linh Dam, South-West, urban expansion
Abstract
The study focuses on Linh Dam New Town in the south-west of Hanoi - the biggest and most diverse new residential area of the city with many projects of New Towns. Hanoi expansion to the south-west will relieve the overburdened center and re-configure densities. Accordingly, a series of projects of New Town has grown up with types and sizes and different characteristics to provide new and modern living spaces for residents. Linh Dam New Town was selected for investigation to discern an overview on the development of high-density and diverse new residential area in the south-west of Hanoi. The set of criteria used to analyze the case study included Structural Plan, Uses and Activities, Public Space, Trafic, and Typological Characteristics of Architecture, in order to find out strengths and weaknesses of the project, as an example for other New Towns in the south-west of Hanoi.
