Planting Inside Out
Today's window boxes in Philadelphia are a result of successive window-gardening campaigns undertaken by female reformers and activists between the 1870s and 1970s. In the late nineteenth century, window gardening became an integral component of Progressive reform and social charity. In the mid-twentieth century, window gardening received renewed attention as a means of grassroots activism to counter urban decay resulting from racism and public d…
Tree Times
As living beings that change with the seasons, urban trees both indicate and structure time in the city. They do so through their own agency and life cycles and through the care and management they require in urban environments where they often stand in conflict with other land uses. In temperate zones, urban trees have been planted for centuries especially to provide cooling shade in hot summers. Their changeable and seasonal aesthetic effects, …
Growing Houses
Sonja Dümpelmann visits early twentieth-century proposals for ‘growing houses’ by German landscape architect Arthur Wiechula to reveal the long history behind initiatives to harness trees’ physiological processes in the creation of built structures
Making Urban Environments
As scholars from the fields of history, anthropology and animal studies, as well as landscape planning and management, we discuss various forms of urban and urbanising infrastructures and their political entanglements. Questioning and illuminating how various actors and their practices build and shape urban environments, we address topics ranging from the black soldier fly - used as biotechnological infrastructure to manage waste - to other nonhu…
Urban Trees in Times of Crisis
Trees, Wood, and Paper
The systematization of street tree planting in twentieth-century cities went hand in hand with the development of the modern city’s managerial system. In the systematization process, tree planting and care was serialized and standardized. To facilitate these procedures, tree locations and conditions began to be surveyed, planned, and recorded on paper. Focusing on street tree planting in East and West Berlin, this article examines the role of dif…

An Introduction to Landscape Design and Economics
This paper offers an introductory overview over the points of contact between landscape architecture and economics, and shows that economics has been fundamental to landscape practice throughout the centuries. It points towards the neglect of histories of labour and materials in landscape studies and the disconnect between landscape history and urban political ecology, two fields of scholarship which have much to offer each other
Greening Berlin
A Cultural History of Gardens in the Age of Empire
As much as the nineteenth and early twentieth century gardens and their designs were a product and representation of industrialisation and urbanisation, they were also motors of change. Gardens became an industry in and of themselves. They were both the last resting places of the dead and cultivated plots for surv ival. Gardens were therapeutic environments regarded as civilising, socialising and assimialting institutions, and they were designed …
