Barren Places to Public Spaces | A History of Public Park Design of Budapest (1867-1914)

The richly illustrated, elaborately designed book only analyses public parks which were created for public use. The period examined is the age of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, which is the period of the birth of public parks in Hungary. The analysis of public parks has special significance: the understanding of the development of the urban structure of Budapest is essential to create successful plans for the future.
