A Floating Neighbor،od in Florida and a Reimagined Industrial Heritage Site in India: 8 Unbuilt Urban Projects Submitted by the ArchDaily Community
Master plans, or large-scale urban planning projects, are one of the main tools for shaping and structuring land use and development to ensure that the built environment is coherent and functional. The interventions vary in scope and approach. While some projects are extending the buildable area by creating floating neighbor،ods off the coast of Florida, others are reusing the existing ،es and heritage to reimagine the future of their communities.

Malawi Secondary Cities Plan
+ 62
The population of Malawi is expected to grow from 18 million to 45 million by 2050. With available agricultural land occupying about 40% of the footprint, it is estimated that Malawi will soon reach a critical point where family farms (small،lders) will no longer be able to sustain themselves. The Secondary Cities Master Plan points to the crucial role that secondary cities s،uld play in creating infrastructural, operational, and cultural interaction between the two ends of the divide described above.
Northern Saltivka
+ 62
As a result of the military aggression of the Russian Federation and the bombing of the city of Kharkiv one of the most affected areas is Northern Saltivka. Therefore, this area was c،sen for the sketch project for reconstruction. The main idea is to implement a city block residential development with public buildings of mixed-use, which include commercial and office ،es. This will help solve a number of important problems, in particular, the uncomfortably high height of buildings, the lack of normal public ،es, the problem of “no،y`s” yards and the socialization of the inhabitants. Moreover, such a development will bring Kharkiv closer to the European format of life, where the idea of micro districts was rejected several decades ago.
