Book Modeling the Future Impact of Cincinnati s Proposed Streetcar on Urban Land Use Changes

Download or read book Modeling the Future Impact of Cincinnati s Proposed Streetcar on Urban Land Use Changes written by Elad Mokadi and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction of Cincinnati's streetcar system, which has been planned since the year 2007, will supposedly begin during the fall of 2011. The $128-million project is intended to increase connectivity between the city's two major employment centers, and foster economic growth in its urban core. Ever since its inception, the project has instigated controversies in the local community regarding its future impacts on urban growth and redevelopment. The project supporters argue that it would increase commercial and retail activities, and boost property values; opponents insist that the system will be underutilized and redundant, senselessly wasting scarce public resources. This study explores the impact of the proposed streetcar system on land use transitions, by employing an advanced Geographic Information System (GIS) based land use change model. In an attempt to reconstruct the major arguments behind the public debate, the study models land use changes as represented by three scenarios: (1) the supporters' narrative, (2) the opponents' narrative, and (3) a baseline scenario which does not include the streetcar line. Since land use changes are reliable indicators of redevelopment processes, the study has the potential to contribute to a better understanding of urban redevelopment dynamics and increase public involvement in planning processes, both in Cincinnati and in similar-scale cities. The study first had identified the streetcar supporters and opponents' arguments and quantified them into various spatial criteria. It then incorporated those criteria into a Cellular Automata (CA) - Markov Chains model, to generate future land use distribution raster images. Finally, the model outcomes were evaluated using spatial-statistical analyses. The study sheds a new light on the escalating dispute between the streetcar opponents and its supporters. The results indicate that supporters and opponents' scenarios beget distinct results in terms of land use changes. Under both scenarios, however, the streetcar establishment would impact its surrounding area to some extent.

Book Cincinnati Streetcar Heritage

Download or read book Cincinnati Streetcar Heritage written by Kenneth C. Springirth and published by America Through Time. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Cincinnati Streetcar Heritage is a photographic essay of the Cincinnati, Ohio streetcar system. Cincinnati's first electric streetcar line was the conversion of the Mt. Adams & Eden Park Inclined Railway Company cable car line to electric operation in 1888, which became part of the Cincinnati Street Railway Company in 1896. Because of concern over corrosion of underground conduits and water pipes, Cincinnati's streetcar lines were required to have a double overhead wire within city limits. Cincinnati, along with Merrill, Wisconsin, and Havana, Cuba, were the only streetcar systems in North America with a double overhead wire system. Two open observation streetcars were placed in sightseeing service during 1939. The only Presidents' Conference Committee (PCC) cars ever built with two trolley poles were operated in Cincinnati. Although Cincinnati's streetcars made their last run in 1951, the Toronto Transit Commission purchased 52 of Cincinnati's PCC cars with the last one taken out of service in 1982. Cincinnati Streetcar Heritage documents the city's streetcar era, including the Cincinnati Bell Connector streetcar line which opened in 2016, linking downtown Cincinnati with the Over the Rhine neighborhood"--Back cover.
