Designing Area Along-side Urban Drainage Into Green Open Space And Water For Leisure (Case Study: Along Side Urban Drainage At Raya Jemursari Street, Surabaya)

This paper follows the first paper , which has been discussed in Seminar Lanskap Perkotaan - Green City at UPN Veteran Jatim on May 2006. The first paper aimed to explore an idea of improving green area by designing area along-side urban drainage into green open space. By developing this area as a green open-space will contribute to urban landscape aesthetic, improve the human comfort, reduce air pollution from vehicles disposal gases and also improve the drainage into water for leisure. The case study, in the first paper what we proposed was the area alongside urban drainage at Raya Jemursari Street in Kelurahan Wonokromo, East Surabaya. It has advantage as a place of street-traders who are greenery sellers, and are well developed but at undeveloped site-planning. According of these potential, as an open green space and a place of greenery sellers, we are trying to plan it also as water for leisure to the community to get more benefit for the city and the citizens. So, in this paper we aimed to design the green open-space more detail, beside contribute to urban landscpae aesthetic, improve the human comfort, and reduce vehicles disposal gasses pollution, this green open-space also aimed to bring more leisure to the citizens.
