PRESENTATION OUTLINE
COCENTRIC ZONE MODEL
THIS MODEL BASES ITS ZONES (RINGS) ON
THE AMOUNT OF MONEY PEOPLE WILL PAY FOR CERTAIN LOCATIONS IN RELATION TO OTHERS

THE MODEL, HOWEVER, DOES NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT
URBAN POLITICS OR LOCAL PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY, OR GLOBALIZATION

CREATED TO HELP EXPLAIN CHICAGO'S URBAN LANDSCAPE
BURGESS MADE THE MODEL TO EXAMINE CHICAGO AND DID SO ACCURATELY

SECTOR MODEL
CREATED BY HOMER HOYT IN 1939
THE MAIN CONCEPT OF HOYT'S MODEL THAT SEPERATES IT FROM THE COCENTRIC MODEL IS
THE SECTPR MODEL BASES ITS DESIGN OFF OF TRANSPORTATION ARTERIES FROM THE CBD

THE SECTPR MODEL IS ONLY APPLICABLE TO A SMALL NUMBER OF CITIES
ALL OF WHICH MUST HAVE BEEN INDISTRIALIZED AND DEVELOPED IN THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY

THE SECTOR MODEL, LIKE THE COCENTRIC MODEL, WAS CREATED WITH CHICAGO IN MIND
THEREFORE, IT RESPRESENTS THE URBAN VEOGRAPHY OF CHICAGO ACCURATELY WITH TRANSPORTATION

THE MULTIPLE NUCLEI MODEL
CREATED BY HARRIS AND ULLMAN IN 1945
THE MAIN CONCEPT BEHIND THIS MODEL IS THAT CITIES DEVELOP
NOT ONE, BUT MANY SPECIALIZED CBD'S AROUND THE CITY, ALL FOR A DIFFERENT DISTRICT

THE STRENGTHS OF THIS MODEL ARE THAT IT EXPLAINS CITIES WITH MANY DISTRICTS
WITH EACH CBD COMES A NEW GROWTH POINT, UNLIKE THE COCENTRIC MODEL WITH ONLY ONE
Photo by Werner Kunz
THE WEAKNESSES OF THE MULTIPLE NUCLEI MODEL ARE THAT
IT ASSUMES THE AREA IS FLAT AND WITHOUT ANY RIVERS, LAKES, ASSUMES TRANSPORTATION COSTS A EQUAL

VERY RELEVANT MODEL TO CHICAGO, BECAUSE MOSTOF THE AREA'S POPULATION IS IN
SPECIALIZED TOWNS OF THR CHICAGOLAND AREA THAT DEVELOP INDEPENDANTLY

LATIN AMERICAN MODEL
CREATED BY GRIFFIN FORN IN 1980
ADVANTAGES OF LATIN AMERICAN CITIES INVOLVE
CITY IS CONNECTED DOWN THE MIDDLE, ALL SECTORS TOUCH CBD
Photo by iokin
DISADVANTAGES ARE THE MODEL IS USUALLY ONLY ACCURATE TO CITIES IN LATIN AMERICA
MOST OF THE POOREST SLUM AREAS ARE ALSO VERY INACCESSABLE FROM THE CBD

SOUTHEASTERN ASIAN MODEL
CREATED BY MCGEE, 1967
BASED ON COLONIAL PORT SYSTEM, PUTS EMPHASIS ON TRANSPORTATION
TAKES INTO ACCOUNT LOCAL PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHIC ENVIORNMENT

DOWNSIDES INCLUDE A DIFFICULT TO SEE PATTERN
THEREFORE, IT IS HARDER TO APPLY DIRECTLY TO CERTIAN CITIES
Photo by Stuck in Customs
THIS MODEL RELATES TO CHICAGO BECAUSE IT ALSO TAKES INTO ACCOUNT
TRANSPORTATION AND RIVERS AND LAKES THAT CLEARLY AFFECT THE URBAN GEOGRAPHY

AFRICAN MODEL
CREATED BY DE BLIJ IN 1968
STRENGTHS: MIXES THE BEST OF SECTOR AND COCENTRIC ZONE MODELS IN A WAY THAT
PERFECTLY DESCRIBED THE AVERAGE TRADITIONAL UNIQUE DESIGN OF THE AFRICAN CITY
Photo by angela7dreams
STRENGTH: THE MODEL USUALLY DOES NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT PHYSICAL
GEOGRAPHY LIKE RIVERS OR LAKES GETTING IN THE WAY BECAUSE AFRICAN CITIES WERE BUILT ON HIGHLAND
Photo by MAZZALIARMADI.IT
WEAKNESSES: THE MODEL ONLY WORKS TO DESCRIBE A SMALL
NUMBER OF VERY UNOQUE CITIES, SO ITS USE IS VERY LIMITED
WHILE AFRICAN CITIES DID USUALLY NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT INTERFERING RIVERS,
THEY MAY HAVE COME ACROSS UNEVENLY DISTRIBUTED NATURAL RESOURCES
ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THAT MANY MODERN AFRICAN CITIES WERE BUILT NOT
OFF OF ANY TRADITIONAL MODEL, BUT A LOT OF TIMES AROUND A PORT OR TRAIN
