Real Estate and Economic Development: What are the Challenges and Issues

Real estate market in Pakistan along with its allied industries i.e., construction, housing, retail, rental, etc. is considered to have a pivotal role in overall economic development of the country. According to “Pakistan Economic Survey 2021-22”, the real estate market has contributed 9.6% shares in services and 5.6% shares in GDP[1] which is a huge contribution in the country’s economy. The statistics also highlights that the industry has seen a growth of 3.7% in the past year due to its positive economic contribution. This could be because real estate industry provides a reliable and sustainable source of income and is considered to be the best way for investing or saving money in any country. Despite having such economic potential, the industry fails to fully contribute in the country’s economic growth due to certain issues and challenges. Effective real estate management system Effective real estate management system is crucial to smoothly deal with real estate matters in a country. Most of the developed countries in the world have shifted on advanced I.T. based real estate management systems making it easy for them to deal with land transfers and payments ultimately posing a positive impact on economy. However, in Pakistan, there is still old “Patwar” system being used for dealing with most of the real estate matters which mostly rely on manual paper work posing several tangible and non-tangible risks on effective real estate management. Some of the risks include threat of fraudulent activities and improper money transactions while selling/purchasing of plots or other property. This ultimately impacts the economy at national level affecting the GDP. The real estate matters are directly dealt by the board of revenue in the country responsible for monitoring and tax collection for each sale deed made for property. Because this tax collection is also done through old paper based adopted procedures, it affects the level of transparency for tax payments made against each property sold and there is a high chances of corruption activities to take place. This loop hole in the tax collection system poses potential threats to the overall economy of the country as there is no proper monitoring system to control and monitor the transactions made while property selling. The real estate market index is a measure to analyse the performance of investment in real estate sector through showing the investment return in certain investment period. This index is used as a reference for decision making while investing in real estate market and to evaluate the result of investment done. Currently the Pakistan has no proper mean for sharing its property index with the national and international community shadowing its significance to more authentic investors. This also contributes in economic dilapidation of the country in terms of real estate as there are no proper means for attracting investors to invest in real estate sector of the country. Formulation and implementation of real estate laws and policies is inevitable for running a secure and transparent real estate system in the country. For this purpose, many countries have developed separate authorities being real estate authorities for dealing with the real estate matters with strong legal backing, organization and policy framework. In Pakistan, no such authority exists in the country posing risk to real estate sector in terms of legal and policy backing. This has been impacting the record keeping efficiency of the country for real estate matters making the sector weak enough to be moulded in any form as per individual’s desires. This ultimately impacts the economical progression of the entire state because of the absence of policy framework even for real estate transactions. Thus, a real estate regulatory authority is inevitable for a secure and transparent real estate growth in the country. Viewing the huge potential of real estate sector in the country’s economic growth, it is inevitable for the state actors to provide reliable and transparent resources ton deal with the real estate matters in the country. These could be in form of policy reforms or development of regulatory authorities i.e., Pakistan Real Estate Authority, etc. which can guarantee a sustainable growth of real estate sector. This will not only resolve the issues related to economy of Pakistan but will also help in dealing with other associated matters e.g., housing crisis, construction industry issues, etc. Author: Asad Ali Lodhi PCATP Licensed Urban Planner Associate Civil Engineer

Role Urban Planning in Improving the Air Quality

Air pollution is a major public health issue affecting millions of people worldwide. Urban areas, with their high population density and high levels of industrial and vehicular activities, are the main contributors to air pollution. However, with better urban planning, we can reduce air pollution and make our cities healthier and more sustainable. Urban planning Urban planning refers to the process of designing, managing, and developing urban areas in a way that meets the needs of the population while promoting sustainability. It involves the use of various strategies and technologies to enhance the quality of life in urban areas while minimizing the negative impact on the environment. Promoting sustainable transportation: One of the most effective ways that urban planning can reduce air pollution is through the promotion of sustainable transportation. Sustainable transportation refers to modes of transport that are energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and socially responsible. It includes walking, cycling, public transport, and electric vehicles. Studies have shown that cities with well-planned and accessible public transport systems have lower levels of air pollution compared to those that rely heavily on private cars. For example, a study conducted in the UK found that residents of cities with good public transport systems had 27% less carbon emissions per capita compared to those living in areas with poor public transport. Promoting Green Spaces: Urban planning can reduce air pollution through the promotion of green spaces. Green spaces refer to parks, gardens, and other natural areas within urban areas. They provide numerous benefits, including improving air quality by absorbing pollutants and reducing the urban heat island effect. Trees and other plants absorb carbon dioxide and other pollutants from the air, helping to improve air quality. Green spaces can also provide a range of other benefits, including reducing urban heat island effects and providing habitats for wildlife. Image Courtesy: iStock Zoning Industrial Areas: Urban planning can help to reduce industrial pollution by zoning industrial areas away from residential areas and ensuring that industrial facilities comply with strict emissions standards. By doing so, cities can protect their residents from the harmful effects of industrial pollution. Energy consumption in buildings and other structures is a major contributor to air pollution. Urban planning can help to reduce energy consumption by promoting the use of energy-efficient buildings and infrastructure. This can be achieved through building codes, zoning regulations, and other policies that encourage the use of renewable energy sources and energy-efficient design. Courtesy: Getty Images  Proper Waste Management: Improper waste management is a major contributor to air pollution, particularly in developing countries where waste is often burned in open dumps. Urban planning can help to reduce this problem by promoting better waste management practices such as waste separation, recycling, and composting. This can be achieved through the development of waste management infrastructure, public education campaigns, and other policies. Pedestrian-Friendly Urban Design: Pedestrian-friendly urban design is a key aspect of sustainable transportation and can help to reduce air pollution by promoting walking and cycling. This can be achieved through the creation of pedestrian and bicycle-friendly infrastructure such as sidewalks, bike lanes, and pedestrian-only zones. Additionally, urban planners can design cities to be more compact, reducing the need for cars and other forms of transportation. Image: Courtesy of PCA-STREAM  In conclusion, air pollution is a serious problem in many urban areas around the world, but with better urban planning, it is possible to reduce its impact. As the better urban planning can reduce air pollution and make our cities healthier and more sustainable. By promoting sustainable transportation, creating green spaces, reducing energy consumption, zoning of industrial areas away from residential areas, designing pedestrian-friendly cities and improving waste management practices can further reduce air pollution produced in urban areas. With proper planning, the planners can create cities that are not only liveable but also promote the health and well-being of their inhabitants. Author: Plnr.

Urban planning relation with sustainable development goals

Introduction: Urban planning is a key factor in achieving sustainable development goals, as cities play a critical role in sustainable development. Sustainable development goals are a set of 17 goals adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015 to promote sustainable development worldwide. Urban planning involves designing, developing, and managing cities and towns in a way that enhances the quality of life for residents, protects the environment, and promotes economic growth. Sustainable development goals, on the other hand, focus on achieving economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. Urban Planning and Sustainable development goals: Urban planning plays a significant role in achieving sustainable development goals by ensuring the efficient use of resources, reducing environmental impact, and promoting social inclusion. The following are the key areas where urban planning can contribute to the SDGs: Affordable and Clean Energy (SDG 7) Urban planning can promote the use of renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind power, by ensuring that buildings and infrastructure are designed to accommodate these technologies. It can also reduce energy consumption by promoting energy-efficient buildings and transport systems. Sustainable Cities and Communities (SDG 11) Urban planning is crucial in creating sustainable cities and communities that are resilient to environmental, social, and economic changes. It involves designing compact, mixed-use neighborhoods with access to public transportation, green spaces, and community facilities. Responsible Consumption and Production (SDG 12) Urban planning can promote responsible consumption and production by encouraging sustainable practices, such as recycling and waste reduction. It can also encourage sustainable urban agriculture and local food systems, reducing the carbon footprint of food production and transportation. Climate Action (SDG 13) Urban planning can help mitigate the impacts of climate change by promoting low-carbon transport systems, green infrastructure, and energy-efficient buildings. It can also encourage the use of public transportation, biking, and walking, reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Gender Equality (SDG 5) Urban planning can promote gender equality by ensuring that public spaces and transportation are safe and accessible for women. It can also encourage the inclusion of women in the planning process and promote the participation of women in the workforce. Challenges in Achieving Sustainable Development Goals through Urban Planning Despite the potential benefits of urban planning for sustainable development goals, there are several challenges to its implementation. The following are some of the most significant challenges: Limited resources: Many cities and communities lack the financial and technical resources necessary to implement sustainable urban planning practices. Political will: Sustainable urban planning requires political will and commitment from local authorities and policymakers. Without this, sustainable development goals may be difficult to achieve. Institutional capacity: Building institutional capacity for sustainable urban planning can be challenging, particularly in developing countries where institutional structures are weak. Stakeholder participation: Engaging stakeholders in the planning process, such as local communities and civil society organizations, is crucial for successful sustainable urban planning. However, this can be challenging in practice, particularly when stakeholder interests are conflicting. Conclusion Urban planning is critical to achieving sustainable development goals by promoting the efficient use of resources, reducing environmental impact, and promoting social inclusion. Sustainable urban planning can help create sustainable cities and communities that are resilient to environmental, social, and economic changes. However, it also faces several challenges, including limited resources, political will, institutional capacity, and stakeholder participation. Overcoming these challenges will require collective action and commitment from local authorities, policymakers, and communities worldwide.

Revitalization of Public Square: Making Cities More Livable

Revitalization of Public Square As cities continue to grow rapidly around the world, their physical structures are constantly changing, often in ways that are not favorable. As the population increases, there is a greater demand for infrastructure and facilities. The future of cities is a concern, particularly in terms of privatization and decentralization, which can have an impact on open public spaces. One of the most significant of these public spaces is the public square, which serves as a reflection of the city’s identity and the cultural background of its communities. These squares have been gathering places for people in urban environments since ancient times, where “urban life” takes place. Urban squares are a fundamental component of the city structure, contributing to the city’s image and prestige. As I write about the Revitalization of public squares, it is important to recognize their importance as essential public spaces in urban environments. Roles and Functions of Public Square Public squares serve as a vital part of the transportation system, acting as intersections for both pedestrians and vehicles. They also serve as civic centers where citizens engage in commercial activities and participate in leisurely games and sports. People could sit, relax, read books, meet with friends etc. These public spaces can be used for a variety of activities, such as ceremonies, rituals, and even marketplaces. Well-designed public squares enhance the visual landscape and contribute to environmental aesthetics, which can have positive psychological impacts on users. Additionally, the existence of open and green spaces like public squares can provide economic benefits for the surrounding community by increasing nearby real estate prices. Public squares play a significant role in fostering social cohesion and local identity in addition to their physical and ecological functions. They act as social catalysts, bringing citizens together from different social, economic, and cultural backgrounds, age groups, etc. Urban public squares symbolize “coexistence” and are essential to democracy, as they provide equal accessibility to all citizens. The main function of urban squares is to gather people for various activities, making them a crucial element of the city’s social fabric. Designing Urban Spaces Defining universal design principles that apply to all public squares worldwide is a difficult task. However, identifying basic principles can assist designers and planners during the design process. Before focusing on the design of public squares, it is important to understand the concept of modern cities. One of the major challenges facing globalizing cities is the loss of identity in public spaces, which planners and authorities should be mindful of when making decisions. A responsive public space should meet the community’s needs and provide spaces for relaxation, discovery, and active and passive engagement. Public spaces should be democratic and accessible to all groups. Additionally, public spaces should be meaningful and allow people to make connections between the place, their lives, and the world. When designing urban public squares, size is an important aspect to consider. While it is commonly believed that public squares must be large, size should be determined based on location, surrounding uses, and nearby activities. Designers and planners should focus on the concept of the place and potential user activity before determining the size of the square. Some researchers have attempted to identify the ideal size of public squares, but it ultimately depends on the specific context and needs of the community. Conclusion: In conclusion, urban public squares play a critical role in creating a livable, sustainable and democratic city. As public spaces continue to decline, concerns for the vitality of cities increase. Public squares are essential for establishing a physical and mental connection between public and urban environments, promoting social activities and cohesion, enhancing the character of the environment, and creating a sense of place and identity. However, urban public spaces, including public squares, have been negatively affected by globalization, privatization, and increasing individualism. Therefore, it is essential to recreate and design urban squares to enliven public life and establish social cohesion. Basic design principles for successful urban squares include promoting public use and participation, creating physically and socially accessible environments, achieving environmental sustainability, and promoting art and cultural activities. Urban designers and planners should prioritize the preservation of public squares and create management strategies to prevent losing a vital part of the city and community. Author: Plnr.

URBANIZATION IN KARACHI

Urbanization in Karachi Urbanization is a complex process that affects millions of people around the world, particularly in developing countries where rapid urbanization has become a major concern. Karachi, the largest city in Pakistan, has experienced unprecedented urbanization in recent years, with a population that has grown from 5 million in 1998 to more than 14 million in 2021. This growth has been fueled by a combination of natural increase and migration from rural areas and other parts of Pakistan. However, this rapid urbanization has led to various socio-economic and environmental challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, environmental degradation, and rising inequality. This article explores the drivers of urbanization in Karachi, the implications of urbanization for social and environmental sustainability, and the well-being of its residents. Karachi is a port city located on the Arabian Sea coast in southern Pakistan. It is the capital of the province of Sindh and the largest city in Pakistan, with an estimated population of 14.9 million in 2021. Karachi is the financial and economic hub of Pakistan and a major gateway for international trade, making it an attractive destination for migrants from across the country. Karachi has experienced rapid urbanization over the past few decades, with the urban population growing from 5 million in 1998 to 14.9 million in 2021. This growth has been fueled by a combination of natural increase and migration from rural areas and other parts of Pakistan. As a result, Karachi’s population density is one of the highest in the world, with more than 24,000 people per square kilometer. Karachi is also home to various informal settlements and slums, where the living conditions are often substandard and access to basic services is limited. The rapid urbanization of Karachi has resulted in various challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, environmental degradation, and rising inequality. These challenges have significant implications for the well-being and livelihoods of Karachi’s residents, particularly those living in informal settlements and slums. Therefore, the research problem for this paper is to understand the drivers of urbanization in Karachi and the implications for urban development, social and environmental sustainability, and the well-being of its residents. A critical analysis of existing research on Karachi urbanization reveals that there is a significant body of literature on the topic, with a focus on various aspects of urbanization, including migration, housing, infrastructure, and governance. However, there is a need for more research on the implications of urbanization for social and environmental sustainability, as well as the well-being of residents, particularly those living in informal settlements and slums. Various theoretical and conceptual frameworks have been developed to understand the dynamics of urbanization. These frameworks include the urban transition theory, which posits that urbanization is a natural process that occurs as societies undergo economic and social transformation. Another framework is the urban political economy, which emphasizes the role of political and economic factors in shaping urban development. In the context of Karachi, the urbanization process is shaped by a combination of economic, social, and political factors, including globalization, urban governance, and migration.

The data also reveal that urbanization has significant implications for social and environmental sustainability, as well as the well-being of residents, particularly those living in informal settlements and slums. Inadequate urban governance and planning have contributed to the development of informal settlements and slums, which are characterized by poor living conditions and limited access to basic services. Environmental degradation is also a major concern, with air and water pollution, inadequate waste management, and deforestation leading to health hazards and ecological imbalances. In conclusion, the rapid urbanization of Karachi has led to various socio-economic and environmental challenges, including inadequate infrastructure.

Greenfield Country Club & Resort Trip

Courtesy: Green Fields Country Club It was fantastic! We went on our office tour to the Greenfield Country Club & Resort Hotel at the end of March. I had to get up early because the Bus timing to pick me up from the office was 9 AM.Can you believe sir Junaid and our office boy missed the bus and joined us from a petrol pump on the way. The journey was good everyone was enjoying the travelling by singing, dancing and laughing. It was a sunny day. As we reached there on time at the main gate, our CEO sir Khurram was already reached there with his family too.It was a lush green garden over there. They served us delicious juice at the entrance. There were multiple activities like indoor outdoor games, horse riding and boating etc. The soothing environment of the place was spiritually pleasing to me because it took me closer to nature. I was enjoying the activities we played cricket together and won the match too. The indoor games were brilliant. After lunch, we had gone for swimming. The water was so cold which was contrasting with the sunny environment. After lunch, we played indoor games Carrom board, mechanical bull ride and table tennis. I captured many landscapes and sceneries. As you know photography is my hobby too. I have also experienced the built indoor structure from an architectural design point of view they beautifully used the dark colours of marble and furniture to respect the interior design as you can see in the pictures At the end of the day I enjoyed all the activities and tired enough so I enjoyed tea over there with a beautiful view of the sunset. Moreover, it was a good trip I learned a thing that outdoor & communal activities-built team coordination and communication skills strong. It’s also good for our physical and mental health.

Remembering an Unsung Hero

Veer Chandra Singh Garhwali It was a tense afternoon of 23rd April 1930, when thousands of people had gathered in front of the Qissa Khawani Bazar Police Chowki in Peshawar, and the men of the Royal Garhwal Rifles took positions against the protesting crowd. Hundreds of people were looking on from their houses and rooftops. The British Captain warned the non-violent demonstrators to disperse but it had no effect on them. Then, in a rush of anger, he shouted….  ”Garhwal ~ Three rounds Fire !! ” In response, an equally firm voice of platoon head Veer Chandra Gharwal was heard, refusing to fire upon unarmed people even if the Captain were to shoot them down….. and all the Garhwali soldiers lowered their rifles to the ground. It was a rare and extraordinary moment of couragous defiance by a local unit in the history of British colonial rule. However, for this disobedience, he along with 59 soldiers were arrested and faced military court martial. They were sentenced to life imprisonment and all their properties were seized. After serving this term in several jails for 11 years, 3 months and 18 days, he was finally released in year 1941. Veer Chandra Singh Garhwali was born on 25th December, 1889 in the district of Garhwal, Utterkhand, and died on 1st October, 1979 after a long illness. For his humanity and courage, he deserves to be known, acknowledged and remembered by us.

The last days of Socrates
By Plato

‘Nothing can harm a good man either in life or after death’ – Socrates The trial and condemnation of Socrates on charges of heresy and corrupting young minds is a defining moment in the history of classical Athens. In tracing these events through four dialogues, Plato also developed his own philosophy of a life guided by self-responsibility. Euthyphro finds Socrates outside the court-house, debating the nature of piety, while the Apology is his robust rebuttal of the charges against him. In the Crito, awaiting execution in prison, Socrates counters the arguments of friends urging him to escape. Finally, in the Phaedo, he is shown calmly confident in the face of death. Will start reading this enlightening book by a great philosopher about the last days of one of the greatest philosopher of all time who accepted to drink a cup of poison as a price for not compromising on the truth he believed in.

Airport architecture: The 12 most beautiful airports in the world

When architecture and aviation combine BY MEGAN BARBER At its worst, airport design is a confusing blend of bad carpeting and claustrophobic paneling that can leave you searching for hours for a bathroom. But a new class of airports is leaving the dark terminals of the past behind, opting instead for light-filled spaces that provide both function and inspiration. High-design airports are now scattered throughout the world, with big-time design firms like Foster + Partners, SOM, and Grimshaw tackling head-on the challenge of moving millions of people through spaces that need to be more secure than ever. And the trend of better airport architecture isn’t slowing. Huge airport projects currently under construction—like Daxing International Airport’s Zaha Hadid-designed terminal in Beijing and those in U.S. cities like New Orleans, Tampa, Orlando, and Los Angeles—will showcase upgraded and modernized designs. To see just where airport design is headed, we’ve rounded up the 12 most beautiful airports currently operating around the world. From Denver to Mumbai to Osaka, this is architecture taken to new heights. Airport of Marrakesh Menara in Morocco Completed in 2008, the terminal extension of the Marrakech Menara Airport in Morocco—designed by Swiss Architects E2A Architecture—uses a gorgeous facade that has become a hallmark of the airport. Light filters into space by arabesques made up of 24 rhombuses and three triangles. Clad in white aluminum panels and featuring stylized Islamic ornamental designs, the structure gives the terminal a brightness that changes according to the time of day. It’s also an excellent example of how a contemporary building can incorporate traditional cultural motifs. Baku Heydar Aliyev International Airport Located in the capital of Azerbaijan, the Heydar Aliyev International Airport terminal features giant wooden cocoons designed by Turkish architecture studio Autoban. Light streams in through the concave external glass walls, and each cocoon houses cafes, bars, stores, and amenities, like a children’s play area. Diamond patterns on the atrium floors mimic the wooden shingles of the cocoon. The airport can handle more than 5 million passengers each year. Denver International Airport Airport architecture in the United States often leaves much to be desired, but Denver’s fabric-covered tents are a highlight in a sea of boring design. Designed to mimic Colorado’s snow-capped Rocky Mountains, the tents look striking at any time of day—but their soft glow at sunrise and sunset is especially captivating. Recent construction added a new Westin Hotel to the airport, and travelers can also now take a train directly from the airport to downtown Denver. Madrid Barajas International Airport Located just 12 kilometers from the center of the Spanish city capital, the Barajas Airport received an upgrade in 2006 thanks to addition by architect Richard Rogers that doubled the size of the airport. The structure’s unusual wave-shaped roof is supported by central “trees” that punctuate the roof to provide natural light throughout the upper level of the terminal. Bright reds and yellows offer a welcome departure from the standard gray and white used in most airport color schemes, and the roof also provides much-needed shade to combat Madrid’s hot summers. Kansai International Airport Opened in 1994 to relieve overcrowding at Osaka International Airport, Kansai International Airport was designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano. Built on an artificial island in the Bay of Osaka, it’s the first “ocean” airport in the world and can handle 100,000 passengers a day. The extra-long terminal—the longest in the world at the time it was built—stretches 1.7 kilometers with 42 boarding gates and a large curving roof shaped like an airfoil. The structure was specifically designed to handle Japan’s frequent earthquakes, and just four months after opening, the airport survived the 6.9 Kobe earthquake with minimal damage. Beijing Capital International Airport At two miles long, Terminal 3 of the Beijing International Airport is one of the largest buildings in the world. Opened just in time for the 2008 Olympics, this structure features a striking design—created by architects Foster + Partners—that uses the traditional Chinese color scheme of red and yellow and a dragonlike form to celebrate Chinese history and culture. The terminal building and transportation center together enclose a floor area of 1.3 million square meters and were designed to accommodate 50 million passengers each year by 2020. Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport Designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), Mumbai’s new Terminal 2 building opened in 2014 to accommodate the city’s growing influx of visitors. A gigantic roof canopy references the form of vernacular Indian pavilions and is the centerpiece of the design. In total, 30 mushrooming columns connect to the canopy overhead, with patterns inspired in part by India’s national bird, the peacock. SOM also sought to respect the traditions of local cultures—curbside drop-off zones are “designed for large parties of accompanying well-wishers [to] accommodate traditional Indian arrival and departure ceremonies.” Kuala Lumpur International Airport One of the largest airports in Asia, the Kuala Lumpur airport, designed by Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa, incorporates an Islamic-style shading roof anchored by massive columns. The roof is also reminiscent of a common tree in the Malaysian rainforest, and the lights on the canopy represent the filtered sun that shines between leaves. Kurokawa’s “airport in the forest” design demonstrates how modern design—the shell-like roof is made with sleek stainless steel—and cultural traditions can blend together. The airport also features a series of prayer rooms throughout. Kutaisi International Airport This small airport located in Kutaisi, Georgia, was designed by the Dutch architecture firm UNStudio. The firm wanted to help passengers navigate the airport, building a bright red corner to act “as a crossing-point and point of recognition.” Large windows create a light-filled interior with views of the Caucasus Mountains, and a golden, wood-like structure in the center of the terminal provides a meeting point for passengers. Architect Ben van Berkel designed the building with a large span, open spaces, and high ceilings—a nod to the great railway stations of the past. Shenzhen Baoan International Airport The first airport project designed by the Rome-based architects Massimiliano and Doriana Fuksas, the new Terminal 3 building at Shenzhen Baoan International Airport in China was built to look like a manta

8 Cool Ideas for U.S. Cities, Courtesy of the Dutch

BY JENNY XIE@CANONIND  An illuminated crosswalk designed to help drivers see pedestrians better.Photo via Lighted Zebra Crossing From Mondrian’s colorful, pared-down compositions to a bike- and weed-friendly culture, there’s a lot the Netherlands is known for. And recently, these cultural footings —as well as universal headaches like potholes and road safety—have inspired a number of innovative urban interventions around the country. We’ve gathered a handful below for inspiration—and pure amusement. 1. A bike traffic system that helps cyclists get all green lights A new bike traffic light system from Dutch company Springlab wants to make every urban cyclist’s dream come true. Flo uses sensors to detect riders’ speeds about 120 meters (or 400 feet) before a street traffic light and then displays symbols indicating whether they need to speed up (a hare), maintain the pace (a thumbs up), or slow down (a turtle) to make the next light. One Flo kiosk has been deployed in Utrecht, and there are plans to roll out a couple of more in the coming months. 2. Emoji as an architectural ornament Photos via Attika Architekten Goodbye gargoyles, hello smileys? Over in the Dutch city of Amersfoort, a brick mixed-use building now sports 22 emojis cast in white concrete on its facade. Love it or hate it, this is one architectural trick that perfectly encapsulates the current era. 3. “Self-healing” roads that fix their own potholes Shutterstock Modern cities are plagued by potholes. One Dutch materials scientist, Erik Schlangen at Delft University, thinks he may be able to defeat them. His team is currently developing “self-healing” asphalt—that is, asphalt embedded with tiny steel fibers so that when you run an electrical current over it with a huge magnet, the fibers heat up and fill in any small cracks that may be forming. According to his research, this type of asphalt would cost 25 percent more than traditional asphalt but last twice as long. It’s already being tested on a dozen different public roads around the country. 4. Building bridges out of cannabis hemp Eindhoven University of Technology It’s not the prettiest bridge out there, but it’s probably the world’s first and only one made entirely from biocomposite materials, namely cannabis hemp. Designed and built by a team of researchers and students in Eindhoven, the structure is made of hemp and flax fibers embedded in resin and covering a bio-based polymer core. The team, which has put 28 sensors in the bridge, will monitor the structure over the next year, studying its bounce and structural integrity. 5. Glowing crosswalks   Dutch company Lighted Zebra Crossing has a simple, effective way to help drivers see pedestrians better. Their glowing crosswalks replace the typical light-reflecting paint with illuminated lightboxes. The system is directly connected to the city’s streetlight system or solar panels and can be embedded right in the asphalt or pavers. 6. Turning city hall into a giant piece of art For the centennial of the Dutch art movement Di Stijl this year, the Hague commissioned artists Madje Vollaers and Pascal Zwart of Rotterdam-based Studio VZ to create a massive piece of artwork inspired by De Stijl’s most famous artist, Piet Mondrian, right on the facade of city hall. The 1995-built Richard Meier creation sure looks more ready to party with some color. 7. LED traffic lights for texting pedestrians Confronted with the reality of smartphone-obsessed pedestrians, the Dutch town of Bodegraven recently began a pilot project testing thin, colored LED light strips positioned at the end of sidewalks. Depending on their glow—red or green—the lights should be visible even to pedestrians with their heads down. 8. An endless circular runway?! Now, this is an idea that may never take off, but just entertain it for a second. According to Dutch scientist Henk Hesselink, who is working with the Netherlands Aerospace Centre, an “endless runway” with a 360-degree landing strip means planes can approach and takeoff from any direction without fighting against crosswinds. It would take up about a third of land typically reserved for airports and create more distributed flight paths (and more tolerable plane noise for residents in the area.)

The New Urban Agenda – HIII

ROLE OF URBAN PLANNING IN PAKISTAN FOR ACHIEVING NEW URBAN AGENDA Lahore, October 21, 2016: A technical session on understanding the “New Urban Agenda” with reference to Pakistan was organized by the Institute of Planners Pakistan (IPP) It was held at the office of Sheher Saaz (Pvt.) Limited (Architectural and Urban Planning Firm). The purpose of this session was to create awareness in researchers, policy makers, built environment practitioners and public regarding the importance of Third United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) and how the agreed agenda is related with Pakistan and what role IPP and various built-environment professionals have to play in achieving the targets set in the New Urban Agenda. In the beginning session all the participants introduced each other. Mr. Khurram Farid Bargatt, The Secretary General of IPP gave a brief introduction about Habitat I, II, III and Pakistan’s participation in events. Planner Muhammad Shoaib, Executive Member IPP gave a detailed presentation elaborating Habitat I,II & III and Pakistan’s role in achieving the goals and objectives of these conferences. He interpreted the need of organizing these conferences every twenty years. He added “at the time of Habitat I in 1976, urbanization was considered as a challenge and the need to create a global institution to oversee the impacts of urbanization was realized thus giving space to the creation of UN Habitat. But in Habitat II in 1996, it was more focused on assessing two decadal progress and setting forth fresh goals for the new millennium by introducing Habitat Agenda “Adequate Shelter for All”. He maintained that Habitat III in 2016 is quite important as it is setting a “New Urban Agenda” which addresses urbanization as endogenous source of development, linking urbanization with climate change, considering urbanization as a tool that can integrate socio-economic development and equity. This means the New Urban Agenda will be following and pushing the progress on Sustainable Development Goals 2030. The New Urban Agenda will address the challenges of poverty, inequality, addressing climate change, looking forward to sustainable forms of consumption and production in the next twenty years.” He maintained that Pakistan is a fast urbanizing country among South Asia, 35.8% in 2005; 38.6% in 2015 and 39 in 2016 and it is likely that Pakistan will be 50% urbanized by the year 2025. Which means currently almost 3 million population equivalent to the size of city of Faisalabad is added to our existing cities annually. However, our cities are unable to foster planned growth and almost 60% population lives in slums or slums like condition. He further stressed that urbanization is a blessing in disguise. The need is to steer planned urbanization and getting fruitful results. The New Urban Agenda focuses on six thematic areas (i) Urban Economy; (ii). Urban Demographics (Social Cohesion and Equity) – Livable Cities; (iii) urban Frameworks (Public Policies, Governance and Legislation); (iv). Urban Ecology and Environment; (v). Urban Planning and Design (Spatial Development); and (vi). Housing and Basic Services. The major implementing strategies that the states have to consider under the New Urban Agenda include: (i) Revising Urban Rules and regulation, (ii) fostering Urban Planning & Design; (iii) ensuring  Municipal Finances and (iv) connecting National Urban Policies with the dynamics of urbanization. He concluded the New Urban Agenda is now our responsibility. He stressed that this responsibility is not merely the responsibility of the state. It is a shared responsibility in which all actors including the state, private sector, citizens, academia, civil society, policy makers and the concerned built-environment professionals have to strive their best to fulfill the commitments under the New Urban Agenda. He wished if the recommendations set out under the New Urban Agenda are complied, 20 years later Pakistani cities will be model of sustainable cities which will be inclusive and equitable. After the presentation the house was opened for discussion on The New Urban Agenda adopted at Habitat III Conference in Quito on 20th October, 2016. Among the participants, Mr. Rizwan ur Rehman mentioned that Pakistan National Report submitted by the Ministry of Climate Change was prepared in hurry and didn’t consult public for comments and feedback without going for larger stakeholder consultation. Mr. Khurram Farid Bargatt highlighted the fact that the institutions responsible for urban planning and management are not well aware of Habitat II Agenda till today and the same thing has happened for the Agenda of Habitat III. All institutions were not taken on board for the preparation and consultation for this conference at any stage. Mr. Naveed ul Haq, from Elan Environmental Consultant, expressed that there is need of new laws on environment and building regulations. Mr. Khurram Farid mentioned that after 18th the Amendment powers were supposed to be transferred to local bodies this has also been emphasized in New Urban Agenda to decentralize powers to strengthen local bodies. But in Punjab or other provinces, provincial government are establishing more provincial or divisional level authorities. Architect Silwat Afzal (NCA Lahore) highlighted the reason of migration in the cities that people migrate from one place to another for two main reasons; for education or health and other is for better employment. Dr. Fariha Tariq (Chairperson, Department of City & Regional Planning, UMT) talked about house design and said that our public don’t want to live in a house of 2 or 3 marla because these are not designed as per socioeconomic and cultural grounds. She also told that half of cities infrastructure include housing; addressing housing issues will pave towards achieving set targets of New Urban Agenda. Mr. Shoaib pointed out that it is the negligence of our municipal institutions to guide growth and development of urban areas in a planned fashion as compared to the developed countries where one can see the uniform pattern as those municipalities make local plans and regulate it in efficient way. While in case of Pakistan there is a haphazard pattern because our local authorities do not go for detailed planning. Mr. Mutahir Awan (Assistant Professor at UMT

The Monastery of St. Simon the Tanner

The Monastery of St. Simon (Simeon) the Tannerby LaraIskander Saint Simon the Tanner (St. Sama’an, in Arabic) lived towards the end of the tenth century when Egypt was ruled by the Fatimid Caliph, Al- Muizz and Anba Abram was the Coptic Pope. At the time, the Copts (Christians) in Egypt were engaged in handicrafts. St Simon worked in one of the crafts widespread in Babylon (Old Cairo) which was tanning, a craft still known there till this day. This profession involved also other crafts that depend on the process, from where he carried several titles related to skins; St Simon the Tanner, the Cobber, the Shoemaker. The Monastery, located on the opposite side of the road leading to the Citadel contains seven Churches and Chapels hidden in a series of caves in the Mokattam (Muqattam) hills. The Monastery was erected and dedicated to him a thousand years after his miracle and his death. It lies behind “Mansheiyet Nasser”, the Zabbalin village (garbage collectors). This village was erratically established in 1969 when the Governor decided to move all the garbage collectors of Cairo to one of the hills of the Mokattam. There, they built themselves primitive houses of tin. The number of trash collectors living in the area reached about 15.000 in 1987. This number has doubled now. Reaching the monastery is quite a difficult approach. Amazingly, the people there will point you in the right direction knowing your destination without even been asked. The Monastery is reached through the narrow village streets, trash carts passing you by along with piles of rubbish, plastics, and tins on the sides of the alleys with people sorting them out. Even if described in detail, the Zabbalin village is a hard place to picture, far from one’s imagination; it can only be grasped on site. At the far end of the village, awaits you an unexpected, stunning place; a vast open space lying in the bosom of the hills, with dramatic colored carvings all over the mountain. The carvings were done by a Polish Artist who begun working there several years ago. They represent stories from the Bible such as the Holy Family journey and the Nativity scene. The main Cathedral there is named after the Virgin Mary and St Simon in commemoration of the legend of transferring the Mokattam Mountain in November 979 when Simon the Tanner was chosen to fulfill this miracle According to Coptic sayings, the Caliph Al Muizz, an enlightened man, was fond of literacy gatherings and inviting different religious leaders to debate in his presence with neither anger nor contention. In one of those meetings in which Pope Abram and a Jew named Jacob Ibn Killis were present, the Pope got the upper hand in the debate. Plotting to take revenge, Ibn Killis quoted the verse where the Lord Jesus said in Mt 17:20: “If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to the mountain, Move from here to there, and it will move, nothing will be impossible for you” and demanded him to prove that his religion is right by means of this. The Caliph saw in this an opportunity to remove the mountain that was spoiling his view. At the same time, if they proved unable to do so, it would be proof that the religion of the Christians was wrong and he would be done away with them completely or so goes the Legend. Left: Interior view of the Virgin Mary; Right: St Simon the tanner Cathedral showing the projection screen. And so, after 3 days of prayers and fasts by the people throughout the land of Egypt, Simon was chosen to move the Mokattam Mountain. It is said that a great earthquake swept over the mountain. Each time the people stood up to worship, the mountain was thrust up and the sun would be seen from under it. When the people sat down, the mountain thrust down. This was repeated three times. St Simon was never found afterward. His skeleton was discovered in 1991 in Babylon in St Mary’s church (the Hanging Church). The Virgin Mary and St Simon Cathedral was constructed in 2 stages. At first, it was only a huge cave of limestone in the bosom of the hill. The audience was seated on straw rugs around the alter which was prepared in 1986. The 2nd stage was in November 1994 which falls on the feast of St Simon. The church was reconstructed and the ground was deepened once more. Fixed seats were constructed around the altar in the form of a quarter-circle auditorium to accommodate up to five thousand people and thus it became the biggest church in the Monastery. Left: An engraved figure of the Virgin Mary and Christ found on the ceiling near the alter;Right: Exterior view of the Virgin Mary and St Simon’s Cathedral. To the right side of the altar, the church keeps the remains of St Simon’s body. In the year 1974, upon the ceiling and to the right side of the altar, an obvious engraved figure of the Virgin Mary holding the baby Jesus Christ was discovered, not touched by any human hand. It was later revised in the year 1994. Another amazing Chapel in the Monastery is St Bola’s Church, named after St Bola the first Pilgrim for virtues he possessed. He lived in caves and solitude for 70 years during which he never set eyes upon a human face. The Chapel cave was discovered in 1986 by pure coincidence during construction works when a huge rock fell showing an opening in the ceiling of the cave and thus, the church location was decided An astonishing story about this church took place in January 1992 when it was endangered by a fire caused by an electric spark. The picture of Jesus Christ hanging in the church and the alter were by no means destroyed even though the whole interior of the cave was damaged. A third church of the
