Résumé anglais |
Great cities built on rivers have and have had with their streams very different relations. With three samples volontarily chosen for their différencies : Edmonton, Montreal and Lyons, the author illustrates that idea with the survey of the evolution of those relations. Edmonton, very young city, has preserved the natural landscape of the North Saskatchewan valley. Montreal and Lyons, after having for long times sacrified natural aspects to the benefit of economic activities, mortorways and parkings, have rediscovered in different manners others utilisations of the river banks : sports, public walk and bicycling, parks... Then, they are in the world evolution of reconquest of the edges of waters on rivers, lakes and seas. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
