Boulevard as Natural Skeleton Element of Modern City

Abstract

The implementation of spatial planning environmental principles is becoming increasingly relevant due to the renewed environment state. In this context, boulevards are regarded as an integral element of the natural city skeleton, the building process of which is aimed at the environment improving. Empty boulevards in modern cities are considered to be the main problem on the way to this goal achieving. The research analyzes the process of boulevards historical evolution and identifies the main factors that have affected the loss of their sustainability in modern cities. The boulevard noise level was calculated proving the inconsistency of modern traditional boulevards with the requirements of a comfortable environment. Based on the identified features and problems of modern boulevards, town planning recommendations are being developed that contribute to the formation of the stability of boulevards in modern cities.
