美国 San Antonio 滨河步行街-6
San Antonio滨河步行街是一处公共区域,这里拥有很多旅游热点,吸引了大量游客;这里拥有有效的洪水调控管理;这里是Texan植物的天堂。该街区全年开放,涵盖San Antonio河周边大大小小的数条街道,两旁遍布商店、旅馆和餐厅等。这里不仅是游客的聚居之地,也是联系Alamo和Rivercent商场之间隔景点的绿色生态区。
1921年9月,突如其来的一场大洪水袭击了这片区域,造成了数百万美元的经济损失。政府当局部署紧急预案,采取果断措施避免悲剧的再次发生。他们用水泥和植物筑成堤坝防御了洪水。1929年建筑师Robert H.H.Hugman递交了一份滨河再建的美化方案,预把滨河区变为一座拥有商店、公寓和步行桥等设施的园区。他的方案获得了政府的审批,并在1941年建设完成。之后,在1962地委员会又通过了一项方案,建设成了现在的样子。该方案也获得了设计领域的一系列奖项。其娱乐区和生态园区的完美结合以及历史遗迹的保留等获得了广泛的认同和赞扬。

An inspiration to designers and engineers worldwide, the San Antonio River Walk is a public park that wears hats: a major tourist destination that draws millions of visitors annually, effective engineered flood control, and a diverse showcase of Texan plants. Open365 days a year, the River Walk consists of a network of walkways along the banks of the San Antonio River, lowered from street level. Lined by bars, shops restaurants and hotels, the park is not only a tourist draw, but is also a green network for connecting tourist sites, from the Alama to Riveicenter Mall.
The origin of the River Walk comes from a disastrous flood that hit the city in September 1921. In response to the millions of dollars in damage and the many casualties, city officials hired an engineering firm to study and propose preventative measures to prevent future flooding. The firm proposed to fill in parts of the river with concrete, a plan, which though backed by city officials at that time was successfully protested by several groups, including the San Antonio Conservation Society. In 1929, architect Robert H. H. Hugman submitted a plan to beautify the river, drawing precedents from Venice. He proposed to turn the urban river into a park lined with shops and apartments, as well as footbridges and gondola rides. The proposal was accepted and backed, and was finally completed in March 1941. It wasn’t until after 1962, however, when the San Antonio Riverwalk Commission was established and a new masterplan drawn up did the River Walk begin to evolve into the commercial success it is today. The design has also won numerous awards for its engineering feats and for the creation of an urban ecosystem supporting a number of historical markers.
