- Abstract
Throughout history, cities have evolved to meet changing needs. A city transforms, as do living organisms, as their needs and requirements change. Changes to urban waterfronts also affect the city's attractive, vital, and essential elements. As part of this debate, urban waterfronts will be in the discussion, which refers to the specificity of the city. Urban planning seeks to provide a better way of life and to design cities for everyday use. Aside from solving specific problems, urban development may also serve as a general policy to improve cities' physical, functional, social, environmental, and cultural aspects. Depending on the specific circumstances of a particular city, some problems are similar, and some are different in every city. The planning, implementing, and managing of urban waterfront development projects can be complex, and their ability to motivate creativity can be problematic. This article focuses on the principles of waterfront development as a creative environment. Waterfronts initially discussed their primary problems, characteristics, and related issues. Afterward, the authors describe urban waterfront development as a creative environment and the principles involved. In the final section, the authors describe an urban waterfront development framework to reduce social segregation and incorporate the experiences and opinions of citizens and stakeholders—a comparative and exploratory approach to gathering primary and secondary sources for this study.
