NATURE INTEGRATION
DYNAMIC, DIVERSE, AND COMPACT URBAN
FABRIC
The efficient and sustainable development of
the city of Astrakhan presents as a necessity
the increase of the quality of life and
implicitly of the urban facilities, especially in
the peripheral areas. In order for this goal to
be achieved, the urban development area
of Astrakhan also follows the principle of
polycentric development.
It is proposed that Astrakhan urban area
develops a comprehensive system of centers
and subcenters, mixed-use and specialized
centers, that serve the territory
homogeneously. The central area represents
a dynamic urban environment, having a mix
of complex and performant specialized
centers (educational, cultural, regenerated
urban blocks, natural park - the island). In the
pericentral area, there are proposed a series
of mixed-use centers, economic
development poles. Transitioning to the
peripheral area, each neighborhood is
served by a main mixed-use pole and a series
of secondary centers - community civic
centers/hubs.
The new polycentric structure is determined
by the mobility network of the city.
According to the main nodes of
transportation, strategic high-rise
densification developments are proposed.
Following the polycentric development
principle, the Astrakhan city (and urban
area) is able to engage in a regeneration
process of the disadvantaged areas, by
increasing their attractiveness with urban
services, facilities,
developments.
