How Cities Can Move On The Global Competition

From 1890 to 1920, cities in the United States experienced a rapid growth that was unprecedented in years previous. This growth was caused by a number of factors and resulted in both positive and negative consequences. Such factors included, industrialization, technological advances, migration and immigration. Although American cities greatly improved by the expeditious urbanization, these factors also developed numerous challenges including pollution, sanitation problems, a need for environmental reform, political corruption, overcrowding, high crime rates and segregation.

Corporate hospitality is a private event held by corporations and businesses to entertain and build good relationships with their staff and clients and to encourage new businesses. For example a company hires a venue such as the Hinitze Hall in the Natural History Museum which offers galleries for a range of evening events with catering facilities and staff which will be used only by the business team.

There are direct impacts to the environment for every sport event that happened, be it small scale or global. Mega –sport events are progressing every now and then since they are stimulators of major programs of improvement and regeneration for means of expressing the personality and enhancing the status of cities that are holding these events. Mega-sport events are then catalysts of development and change of the venues both in the local and national level (James and Dodours,

Event management is a multi-billion dollar industry, growing rapidly, with conferences, meetings, trade shows and social events hosted regularly all over the

Space whether physical, abstract, or representational are controlled by the means of production, and the absolute value which can be fetched at the highest price. Through the work of Henry Lefebvre, Production of Space discusses the different aspect space influences in our lives right down to the core identities we take on as humans. Whether it’s the life of an artist or that of an employee who life is run by the clock, space and the use of space defines who and what our needs are. To better describe Lefebvre’s

When we plan an event, it's important to be imaginative. Events and conferences can be educational, with public speakers and classes; or fun, such as an outdoor cookout for customers, suppliers, and employees. It takes time, effort, and good project management skills to plan and organize a successful event.

How does the character and quality of open space vary in different parts of London, and what are the factors affecting this?

Megacities have been becoming a reality to billions of people around the world. These are defined as cities home to more than 10 million residents and many megacities are even more than twice as large as this base population. These cities are home to a few very wealthy individuals with a much larger group of poor or underpaid citizens creating slums in and around these cities. For these few elites, it is not a question as to why they chose to live in a place like this. They are drawn to these cities because, large cities are home to more culture, more efficient transportation, luxury, and they are typically the centers of a country's economy. However, if you are not one of these people, there are still reasons as to why living in a city with such a large population would be beneficial for you. Megacities, more so than the country or small cities, have more efficient and cheaper

Research of social impact of events is one of the emerging topics in event management literature and has a great degree of importance for a variety of different reasons considering their short term, high profile and a relatively profound effect on everyday life of local communities. (Ritchie

Welcome to the capital of the world, the city that never sleeps and the place that I call home -- New York City. Although there are many other cities across the United States, New York City has a certain je ne sais quoi about it, that makes it seem better than the rest. Home to the Statue of Liberty, Times Square, Central Park, the Empire State Building, and many other landmarks and attractions, New York City is a tourist’s dream come true. Unfortunately, people like me, who have lived and grown up here, tend to find the city and its attractions boring and not as appealing as they have all been made out to be. Through “Here’s My New York,” E.B White explains that there are those who are born here and take the city for granted, those who come into the city by day and leave by night, and those who have migrated from different parts of the world in search for a better life.

When somebody lives in a city like Toronto, it is almost essential to use a car most places a citizen has to go. The big question is, are cars the answer? Or should cities like Toronto, start promoting other transportation methods?

1.What are the goals of Bloomberg NYC plan? To what extent have they been accomplished?

London, full with people and skyscrapers. There is concrete everywhere you look. People would have gone crazy with concrete madness if there were not green spaces. Green spaces are essential for the city and humans living in the city. Without it, people in the city would have been serious ill or even dead because of the smog. So, it is very important that London cares for it 's green spaces. London is too big to be maintained by itself, that is why there are boroughs. Each borough maintains it own space. Of course, each of the boroughs has it 's own strategy. Two of the boroughs were particularly interesting, because of the biodiversity and the strategy of the borough to maintain and enhance green space.

Throughout the years, people from all over the world have migrated to Australia and the United States of America to create better lives for themselves such as escaping religious/political persecution, obtaining a better education, reuniting with their families, becoming exposed to more job opportunities, and various other reasons (Singer 2). Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in America and Sydney, New South Wales in Australia have similar immigration patterns, settlement trends, and impacts. However, the communities of immigrants tend to not follow the same behaviors in both cities. Immigration is vital for continuous economic and social growth. Thus, what impact does immigration have on these two cities?

Of the three systems of stratification- economic, social and political- this paper focuses on Peterson’s discussion on improving a city’s economic state. They improve their economic standing by improving their market position, their attractiveness as a locale for economic activity. In a western society, a better economy is one that can more efficiently produce and distribute desired commodities relative to other localities. In increasing the amount they welfare of their export industry, they increase the welfare of their overall city. This is done because exporting to other localities will increase the amount of incoming cash flow, which will intern provide resources for them to export even more. Boeings Aircraft market and its impact on the economy in Seattle is on of many examples of how production and export can have a direct impact on the state of a city’s economy. When a city is able to export its products and services, labor is in greater demand, wages increase, promotional opportunities rise and tax revenues increase. This increase in tax means city services can be improved, donations to charitable organizations become more generous and the social and cultural life of the city enhanced.
