Reflection

Urban morpology has a great deal of different factors mix into its complexity. It is not only concerned with the form and structure of urban areas but the processes and the people that help shape the spaces as they are. Many of the blogs that were visited can infact be related to urban morphology. From http://urbanandculture.blogspot.com Sarsha Ramcharan talks about in one of her blogs the significance of historical landmarks that are evident in San Fernando which can be related to urban morphology as these landmarks are indeed valued by the people in an area and related to the way people value the space which help to preserve the structures found to resist the change in the morphology by the demolision and regeneration of old buildings . This can be furher linked to Neisha Smith's(http://urbansprawl1.blogspot.com/)blog as in one of her blogs she greatly describes the different ways people experience the city by the use of photos. This can be related to urban morphology as well as she describes the ways people organize themselves and their household affecting land use and how it affects the overall shape. Lastly Renuka Sookram(http://urbanculture14.blogspot.com/)looked at the rise of Vertical residential building in her first blog which can be related to one of my post on San Ferando's morphology from San Ferando's Hill. In this picture to the right hand corner large apartment buildings can be seen which illustrate the rising population demand and how such socio-economic factors affect the land use and in turn the urban morphology.
