Abstract
High-density urban centers have provided a concentrated space for politics, economy, culture and service, yet have also brought many problems. From the perspective of green low carbon planning, this chapter summarizes the experiences and lessons of planning and construction of typical urban centers around the world, and proposes three aspects of high-density urban centers’ planning and construction: municipal planning, transportation planning and building energy planning. Taking the high-density urban center—Wuhan Wangjiadun Central Business District (CBD) as an example, the specific strategies regarding green low-carbon planning are proposed.
The chapter aims to analyze the achievements of planning and construction of Wuhan Wangjiadun CBD, and offers suggestions and instructions on the planning, development and construction of high-density urban centers in China, from the perspective of green and low carbon planning.
