Explaining the changes that have taken place in town and city centres at night, this title explores how the changing approaches to night-time activities have been conceptualised in UK planning practice. It outlines a holistic approach to planning and managing the night-time city.
This book draw on extensive case study research done in the UK and internationally to explain how changing approaches to evening and night-time activities have been conceptualized in planning practice, and how these ideas have been subverted by the entertainment industry to the point that some micro-districts in certain regenerated and creative cities have now been dubbed 'no-go' areas.
