Diplomová práce

Abstract:

The diploma thesis is focused on studying the urban environment as a collection of physical, economic, social, cultural, and public spaces. A public space of an urban environment as one of its key elements seems to incorporate characteristics of all the mentioned spaces while combining economic, social and cultural activities and tying them to its physical features. The author identified the processes of urban areas going global and the special features of urban areas functioning in a globalized economy. The study of modern activities tied to urban restructuring was provided where the possible ways of the future urban development were proposed.The real estate development processes in the diploma thesis were successfully linked with the overall urban development. The influence of public spaces, and namely the influence of proximity to them on the real estate prices of residential properties, was estimated by constructing two econometric models for the cities of Krasnodar, the Russian Federation, and Prague, the Czech Republic.
