Popis: The erection of Split city section introduced a new approach to the urban planning worldwide in 1968. Many domestic and foreign professionals visited the enterprise (Giancarlo de Carlo, Jane Jacobs and others). Its construction principle was the arrangement of urban units, based on an existent communication grid dating back to the ancient division of the terrain from the first century, of the then outskirts of Split. The parcels were on average 50-60 ha each. Sites of about that size appear as a term and a requisite in urban planning in the early 20th century in the United States, and later in Europe and the Soviet Union, in the form of a neighbourhood unit that is an urban unit. In Split 3, the urban unit has produced positive results for 40 years. Principles of Split 3 are used as a basis for the creation of the Split Development Method (SDM), meant as a generic model that together with public participation provide for urban design of public places. The street as a prime urban element comes first in both the social and spatial sense. The urban unit follows as the criteria for the appropriate organization of housing settlements whose boundaries are the main traffic arteries with a subdivision of streets for local traffic. The actual area of the urban unit provides for a population that needs only one primary school, and its proven size is about 50-60 ha. A primary school, kindergarten, park, playground and grocery shops should be connected by pedestrian streets, paths and small squares. The SMD also introduces the scheme meaning that several urban units create a region of about 30-40, 000 inhabitants with their respective programs, all connected with pedestrian streets, promenades, squares and pedestrian areas.
