This open access book highlights Singapore’s development into a city in which water and greenery, along with associated environmental, technical, social and political aspects have been harnessed and cultivated into a liveable sustainable way of life. It is also a story about a unique and thoroughgoing approach to large-scale and potentially transferable water sustainability, within largely urbanized circumstances, which can be achieved, along with complementary roles of environmental conservation, ecology, public open-space management and the greening of buildings, together with infrastructural improvements.

Excerpt from The City Plan, Vol. 2: April 1916 Therefore the central problem of land subdivision is public regulation, control and restriction. In fairness to all concerned, what should the real estate operator be authorized to do in this very important matter of dividing up and selling his property, thus changing agricultural acres into city and suburban lots, determining their form and use, from which they can be changed again, if at all, only at great cost. The principle of restrictions in the subdivision and use of land is well understood in the United States and very frequently applied. In fact, it is so well understood and so highly valued that it is most often applied in a thoroughgoing way by the real estate operator himself in his own interest. The restrictions placed upon a purchaser in the conveyance of a plot of land often include a long list of the kinds of business which are classified as nuisances, and which may not be established or maintained upon the property; regulation as to stables and garages; fences and walls; set back of buildings from streets and from lot lines; minimum cost of buildings; easements and rights of way for public utilities; and in some cases, even the approval of plans and specifications of buildings including their nature, shape, kind, height, material, color scheme and location; also the grading plans of the plot to be built upon. These restrictions, or, as some operators happily term them, safeguards, are often placed for a period of twenty-five years or more with the right of renewal subject to the assent of the owners. All this is far-sighted and desirable, provided the restrictions are intelligently determined. But can we depend entirely upon the knowledge, skill and motive of the owner or operator to subdivide the land and place the restrictions? At best his action is dependent upon his own judgment, and sometimes this judgment is at fault. The restrictions are applied only in spots which he happens to control, and often when most public-spirited, are not always intelligent. Again, it should be repeated, his chief motive must be profit. He cannot reasonably be expected to have consistent and permanent concern for the results of his methods upon the future occupants of the property, nor upon the general public. Then, as has already been suggested, he does not always know what is best, and if he did, not owning or controlling all the property of the city or town, or even of the entire neighborhood unit in which he is working, he would not be able to make his plans effective. Furthermore, he has only the power of a private citizen. Some of the underlying principles of land subdivision which concern real estate owners and those who have to do with the planning problems of cities may be stated as follows: 1. A plan for the subdivision of property should fit the topography and give due consideration to natural features. The American gridiron plan has not been a success even for cities built on level ground. Its evils and cost when applied to cities with a rough topography are now widely understood. 2. Even if the land is relatively level, the plan should nevertheless have interest, good organization and design.

These structural shifts involved a variety of familiar nineteenth- and twentieth-century urban phenomena, including not only the switch from suburban village to city neighborhood and the salience of interracial fears but also the rise of formal city planning and conflicts among Protestants, Catholics, and Jews over the future of Clifton's religious and ethnic ambiance.".

These two volumes elucidate the manner in which there emerged, on the North China plain, hierarchically structured, functionally specialized social institutions organized on a political and territorial basis during the second millennium b.c. They describe the way in which, during subsequent centuries, these institutes were diffused through much of the rest of North and Central China. Author Paul Wheatley equates the emergence of the ceremonial center, as evidenced in Shang China, with a functional and developmental stage in urban genesis, and substantiates his argument with comparative evidence from the Americas, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Southeast Asia, the Mediterranean, and the Yoruba territories. The Origins and Character of the Ancient Chinese City seeks in small measure to help redress the current imbalance between our knowledge of the contemporary, Western-style city on the one hand, and of the urbanism characteristic of the traditional world on the other. Those aspects of urban theory which have been derived predominantly from the investigation of Western urbanism, are tested against, rather than applied to ancient China. The Origins and Character of the Ancient Chinese City examines the cosmological symbolism of the Chinese city, constructed as a world unto itself. It suggests, with a wealth of argument and evidence, that this cosmo-magical role underpinned the functional unity of the city everywhere, until new bases for urban life began to develop in the Hellenistic world. Whereas the majority of previous investigations into the nature of the Chinese city have been undertaken from the standpoint of elites, The Origins and Character of the Ancient Chinese City has adopted a point of view closer to that of the social scientist than the geographer. Paul Wheatley was professor and chairman of the Committee on Social Thought at the University of Chicago. He was most famous for his work dealing with comparative urban civilization. Some of his books include The Places Where Men Pray Together: Cities in Islamic Lands, 7th to 10th Centuries; Nagara and Commandery, Origins of the Southeast Asian Urban Traditions; and The Management of Success: The Moulding of Modern Singapore (with K. S. Sandhu).
