50 Ideas for the New City

From the beginning, Urban Omnibus has been a showcase of good ideas for the future of cities, conceived in the public interest and tried and tested in the five boroughs of New York. So, we have decided to surface some of the ideas that have appeared on Urban Omnibus over the past two years and broadcast them around the city. In April 2011, we released a series of Idea Posters, pasted on fences, scaffolds and storefronts from Jamaica, Queens, to the Upper West Side of Manhattan, and many places in between.

With this poster campaign, we wanted to turn the tactics of ubiquitous marketing — in which every bus, taxi or construction barrier is a canvas for advertising anything and everything — upside down by using a similar language to share examples of creativity and innovation in the urban realm. We want to spread these ideas to the whole city, online and off. NYC Open Data. City Forward. By clicking accept, you agree to the City Forward Terms and Conditions.

Gated community

Barrière d'accès d'une gated community en Angleterre. Gated community est un terme américain qui désigne, d'après la définition de J. Blakely, « des quartiers résidentiels dont l'accès est contrôlé, et dans lesquels l'espace public est privatisé. Leurs infrastructures de sécurité, généralement des murs ou grilles et une entrée gardée, protègent contre l'accès des non-résidents. Il peut s'agir de nouveaux quartiers ou de zones plus anciennes qui se sont clôturées, et qui sont localisés dans les zones urbaines et périurbaines, dans les zones les plus riches comme les plus pauvres ».

A survey conducted by the NASUWT teaching union, has highlighted that teachers are being subjected to “permanent surveillance” through the use of CCTV cameras in the classroom.

What is clear is that the surveillance experiment of the past twenty years has failed to reduce crime or improve public safety. Yet, schoolchildren and teachers across the country are now expected to accept surveillance for the formative years of their education and in the workplace. Our report, The Class of 1984, shred light for the first time on the extent of surveillance within schools, highlighting that there are more than 100,000 CCTV cameras in secondary schools and academies across England, Wales and Scotland. Our report also showed that there is a ratio of one CCTV camera for every five pupils, more than two hundred schools are using CCTV in bathrooms and changing rooms and there are more cameras inside school buildings than outside.

What Happens When Everyone Makes Maps? - Laura C. Mallonee

On a spring Sunday in a Soho penthouse, ten people have gathered for a digital mapping "Edit-A-Thon. " Potted plants grow to the ceiling and soft cork carpets the floor. At a long wooden table, an energetic woman named Liz Barry is showing me how to map my neighborhood. "This is what you'll see when you look at OpenStreetMap," she says. Though visually similar to Google's, the map on the screen gives users unfettered access to its underlying data -- anyone can edit it. "OpenStreetMap is referred to as a ground-up ontology," she says. Citizen cartography is a time-honored practice; both George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were surveyors. "SUVs were barreling through churchyards and going down little dirt roads through pastures," Barry says.
