1 Delta-Urbanism: Integrated infrastructures Han Meyer New Orleans, March 6, 2008

2 The Dutch experience Drowned urban settlements in SW Netherlands 13 th 17 th century

3 The Dutch experience South-west Netherlands, 1953 Hansje Brinker The urgency of efficient flood-protection and water-management systems

4 Delta-areas areas Magnets for urbanization Strive for autonomy Long histories of conflicts with mainland Next future: new balance of urbanization; natural environment, port&industry and flood-protection Urbanized delta-regions in USA and Europe (N.O., R dam): show-cases for the world; big responsibility

5 Delta-Urbanism U b d l t ith i t t di f t t f Urban development with integrated infrastructures for flood-protection and water-management

6 1960 s 1980 s: Deltaworks Maeslantkering Brouwersdam Oosterscheldedam Hollandse IJsselkering

7 Deltaworks: a new coastal landscape

8 Delta-Urbanism U b d l t ith i t t di f t t f Urban development with integrated infrastructures for flood-protection and water-management

9 Integrated Infrastructures: The hydraulic construction as substance of the architecture of the city City of Nieuwpoort, Dam-square

10 Integrated Infrastructures: The hydraulic construction as substance of the architecture of the city Amsterdam, Dam Amsterdam, Dam

11 Integrated infrastructures: - Efficient use of space - Natural environment - Sharing costs - Local identity and civic pride

12 Delta-urbanism: The Dutch Water-City = a Hydraulic Construction ti 1. flood-protection: defending the city against floods by sea and river 2. Water-management inside the dikes : managing ground-water-levels in the city 3. Water-management outside the dikes : regulation of building-process.

13 Delta-Urbanism: The Dutch Water-City a Hydraulic Construction Hydraulic structure = urban structure Design of dikes and canals: combining urban Design of dikes and canals: combining urban and hydraulic functions

14 Delta-urbanism: The Dutch Water-City = a Hydraulic Construction ti 1. flood-protection: defending the city against floods by sea and river 2. Water-management inside the dikes : managing ground-water-levels in the city 3. Water-management outside the dikes : regulation of building-process.
