Ludwig Karl Hilberseimer: Decentralized City was published for the first time in The New City in 1944. It proposed an alternative

model for cities and suburbs. Decentralized City was a response to the problems caused by the industrial age, pollution,

insalubrities, crime and traffic in city centers. As the first stage of industrialization was based on concentration of production and a

separation between city and country, the second age should be directed towards decentralization and diversification of production,

both agricultural and industrial, and to a closer relation between city and country. Decentralized City was proposed for Chicago and

Detroit.

Frank Loyd Wright: Broadacre City, 1932. - was an urban or suburban development concept. idea was presented in book The

Disappearing City in 1932. A few years later he unveiled a very detailed twelve by twelve foot (3.7 × 3.7 m) scale model

representing a hypothetical four square mile (10 km²) community.

Waldheim, C.: „Each of these projects proposed a profound

reconceptualization of the city – a radical decentralization and dissolution of

the urban figure into a productive landscape.”
