Content Summary | The city of Athens, economic, political and administrative capital of Greece since
1833, has been developed upon ancient settlements of 2000 years and more. The
distribution of economic activities in urban tissue has been determined by a “laiser
faire”, under the influence of continuous political pressures. Market, with successive
changes, has formed a “situation of functional balance”, so much in the thematic level
as in their areal distribution1 that has not been extended yet in the Basin’s total. The
population agglomeration after the second world war and the increasing requirements,
led to the "city’s extension" with the creation of new residential areas that however
did not keep up with the creation of respective centers that would serve their daily or
weekly needs in services and goods supply. Thus in new communities the existing
functional centers are under- equipped so the residents are constrained to daily
journeys in order to be served in the big central centers. This results in big time loss,
aggravation of the already burdened circulatory network and further environmental
pollution2. The tumited urban mobility because of the low Approach-ability
(insufficient network) and the complicated Accessibility (not rational land uses
distribution) increases the emitted pollutants because of the increased traffic
pressures.
Our Objective is a) the ascertainment of sector-based composition of regional
municipalities centers, and b) their maturity level in residents service. The centers
sector-based composition will arise from the development of Functional Structure
Components of 54 Athens Basin communities and will be determined by the reveal of
the same Structure through the employment in 29.184 Building squares of 54
communities. The centers maturation, will arise from the comparative examination of
municipalities Functional Components structure during the decade 1978- 1988. The
challenge consists in the functional enrichment of the under-equipped centers in order
to determine daily and weekly journeys.
