This paper offers a new perspective on everyday life in an ethno-nationally mixed vertical urban setting. It focuses on the cultivation of a shared residential identity that, seemingly, can overcome the binational divide. Drawing on interviews with Jewish and Arab residents in a new middle-class high-rise complex (HRC) in Haifa, Israel, we illustra...

Este trabajo recupera el aporte filosófico y político de sus ideas para concebir las transformaciones del ambiente con...

... From the balcony I can see a building that underwent regeneration, and it is very nice and convincing." HA expresses the feeling that, in Israel, the very move to a new building is considered a "move up," in contrast to residences in the mass-constructed public housing neighborhoods built by the state in the 1950s and the 1960s (Arviv & Eizenberg, 2021). ...
Whereas the literature largely assumes that original residents are displaced from their communities following the implementation of market-oriented housing regeneration, this study indicates that such housing regeneration can also enable lower-middle class homeowners to turn their homes into an economic springboard. First, we argue that the social effects of the day after regeneration are the result of a process of social and spatial rupture that occurs during the extended pre-regeneration period. Therefore, understanding the social implications of urban regeneration requires us to view the act of regeneration in the broad historical context of the long-standing deterioration of the social fabric and the built environment. Second, we hold that these conditions lay the basis for an individualization of advancing personal profit through which homeowners advance the regeneration of the residences in their building while internalizing a discourse of “real-estatization” toward “self-gentrification.“ The article examines this dynamic by focusing on homeowners in a disadvantaged environment located at the heart of real-estate interest in Israel.
... Planning can intensify conflict by disempowering and marginalizing some but not others; it also alleviates conflict through various modes of empowerment or spatial compromise (Burayidi 2003;Bollens 2007;Fincher and Iveson 2008;Gaffikin and Morrissey 2011;Jabareen, Eizenberg, and Hirsh 2019;Landry and Wood 2012;Sandercock and Lyssiotis 2003). More specifically, planning can play supportive, equalizing, and even catalytic roles by creating physical and psychological spaces that facilitate coexistence in such cities (Arviv and Eizenberg 2021;Bollens 2007;Calame and Charlesworth 2011). However, to accomplish such aspirations, planning needs to go beyond a narrow physical land-use approach, as well as its neutral and apolitical attitudes towards the planned reality, to embody comprehensive, inclusive, and participatory design approaches (Bollens 2007;Gaffikin, Mceldowney, and Sterrett 2010;Gaffikin and Morrissey 2011). ...
This paper examines urban design from the socio-political concept of recognition and formulates a framework of urban space of recognition. It aims to illuminate principles of urban design that enhance the recognition of misrecognized groups in public space. Based on an analysis of a public space shared by Arabs and Jews in the mixed city of Haifa, Israel, it proposes that the framework of urban space of recognition rests upon the visual display of multiple cultures and histories as well as designing for opportunities for cross-culture learning and interaction.
... In a recent survey, it has been established that a common code of conduct for all residents like valuing each other's' privacy is necessary for amicable relationship between residents. (Tamir Arviv, 2021) 10. Also there exists perception among residents, that because they touch many common elements like elevator buttons, lobby doors, staircase railing and so on, they are more susceptible to communicable diseases. ...
The high rise buildings are product of new market equations, liberalized economy. Developers are making lot of propaganda of their high rise projects and trying to make high rise buildings more popular for their own benefits. Seldom do they talk about shortfalls, the residents of high rise buildings face. Shortfalls may range from loneliness feeling of residents to behavior problems. Architects, developers, planners and all those having stake in high rise residential buildings are called upon via this paper to focus on social and psychological issues faced by residents of high rise buildings. Areas of future research such as remedy for the issues is also needed.
