Shortly after the adoption of Athens as the capital of modern Greece, the ratification of an official plan for the city became the main priority of the Bavarian regime. From the first city plan approved in 1834 to the several maps, studies of cadastral plans presented at the beginning of the 20th century and until the 1960s, these representations of Athens reveal its passage from a dilapidated village of a few thousand inhabitants to a modern metropolis of half a million inhabitants. Apart from representing a galloping urbanization, the plans of Athens reflect not only ideas, aspirations of their creators but also the discourses and imaginaries of each era, that have been forged by the scientific community, local actors and civic society. The objective of this study is to trace the production of several plans having as subject the city of Athens, within three historical periods: the first years of the ascent of the capital (1834-1870), the era of its rapid industrialization (1870-1920) and a period after World War II of galloping urbanization and private transportation dominance. The urban plans of the modern Greek capital, bear witness of the successive stages of urbanization linked to the development of a grid of spaces public transport network. Their study and understanding of the conditions in which they were made provide urban planners and researchers with the tools they need to further understand and analyse the urban development of the Greek capital during the 20th century. |
