AB  - COVID-19 has severely affected almost every aspect of our everyday lives, especially the use of open greenspace (OGS) in urban settings, which has proven to have a significant role in increasing overall public health and well-being. Hence, the restricted usage of these spaces should be reconsidered. This research aims to analyze the sensitive nature of OGS usage (1) during the pandemic from the perspective of users’ perceived safety and (2) after the pandemic to assess the possible long-term effects. Additionally, this research proposed that location-tracking mobile applications could lead to an increased frequency of OGS visits. The methodology contains detailed background research and two surveys. One survey was conducted during the pandemic in 2020 (sample size n = 412) and was repeated post-pandemic in 2024 (sample n = 451). The 2020 questionnaire A includes questions about the duration, frequency, and activities of OGS usage while focusing on the perceived safety and possibilities of monitoring OGS visits using mobile apps. The 2024 survey represents the continuation of the 2020 survey, focusing on the post-pandemic state of OGS. The statistical analysis is separated into a descriptive data analysis, various χ2 independence tests and a machine learning safety prediction. The results indicate how COVID-19 could affect OGS usage and how app-related physical safety enhancements during the pandemic cannot be statistically distinguished from those in the post-pandemic period. Although the interest in location-tracking mobile applications has statistically decreased in 2024, the majority of the total 863 participants stated that applications could increase their feeling of perceived safety. The added value of this research is that it considers age and gender roles in analyzing OGS usage in the context of a pandemic.

AB  - ‘Albergo Diffuso’ is an innovative concept in urban planning and design, where a hotel is dispersed through urban fabric, usually occupying several historic buildings under one ownership in a smaller community – village, town or small city. In this way, Albergo Diffuso enables their guests to easily participate in local urban life. The roots of the concept are were related to the urban decline of small historic settlements in Italy in the late 20th century. Hence, this concept belongs to international efforts to regenerate small shrinking cities as a new normality in urbanisation. However, two concepts – Albergo Diffuso and shrinking cities – have not been adequately interlinked; usually the physical aspect (‘design’) of Albergo Diffuso has been in spotlight. The other important issues, such as the adaptations of local urban planning and regulative documents and their impact on local property market have not been properly considered.
This is the presentation of one such attempt in the City of Sombor in northwestern Serbia. Sombor ‘old town’, known as “Venac/Coronet”, is under state protection as the best-preserved core of any medium sized city at national level. Nevertheless, the relative isolation of Sombor from major communication corridors has caused its significant economical and demographic shrinkage last decades. The recent development of cultural tourism along the nearby Danube has slowed this process, but it has also imposed new challenges for the urban heritage of Sombor, such as a collision between developing property market and the aforementioned protective measures for local heritage. One of the efforts of local authorities to mediate this is to create a new urban plan for “Venac”, where local urban experts propose innovative measures, including regulations for Albergo Diffuso projects. The aim is to explain work on this plan and expected effects on urban development and local property market. The Sombor case is even more important, as it can be a national pilot to address sustainable tourism development in shrinking cities.

AB  - The quality of the environment is of vital importance for urban areas,
and streets and squares, as the specific form of open public space, represent
an essential part of the city. In urban areas, total road traffic
kilometres will grow by 40 % between 1995 and 2030. This particular
research focuses on the secondary streets that represent an integral
part of a city center not only in a functional way but also in a formal,
structural and cultural sense.
The research aims to analyze the overall quality of urban streets in the
center of Belgrade. The paper represents the segment of the research
done alongside approximately 500 students from the University of Belgrade,
Faculty of Architecture, as a part of the teaching course entitled:
Urban Design of Open Public Space as the research polygon of more
than 100 streets from the central urban borough in Belgrade were chosen.
The principal methodology is based on the Criteria & Indicators
network analysis, with five selected quality criteria: safety, comfort,
accessibility, readability, and liveability.
Results of the research represent the quality assessment of streets,
identifying specific problems and potentials in the context of open
public space in the city center. Therefore, one of the expected contributions
of the paper are the guidelines and knowledge base for upgrading
the pedestrian network and urban design of open public space - the
streets in Belgrade's inner historical city center, thus improving the
overall quality of life.

AB  - COULD MACRO-LEVEL URBAN PLANNING be an effective solution to the issue of the shrinkage of many low-income cities in post-socialist countries in the eastern half of Europe? Although urban shrinkage is a rather complicated and often irreversible process, different global and local planning strategies are developed to overcome its consequences (Neill & Schlappa, 2016), which is often the subject of a “top-down” political regulation. These intentions have opened new perspective for traditional urban planning, embracing different novelties.

AB  - The end of the World War I in 1918 changed dramatically the political picture of the eastern half of Europe, mainly divided between three large realms: Austro-Hungarian, German and Russian empires. Their dissolution made space for new national states, which were much smaller, causing a lot of new borderlands. Moreover, these new borders disrupt well established economic markets, zones, and corridors. As a consequence, many urban settlements in the region became border cities and towns or were deeply affected by new borders; they eventually entered the interwar period (1918-1939) with challenging economic prospects, which influenced their demographic stagnation or shrinkage. 
This unfavoured borderland situation had profound effects on urban life and economy along
the Danube in interbellum years. New urban development was an exception, limited to just
several cities with special advantages, such as Bratislava (new ethnic capital) or Novi Sad (new regional seat). The most affected cities were those ones divided by the newly established borders the Danube – unwanted twin cities. For instance, Esztergom and Štúrovo/Párkány. Similarly, towns on the preserved borders, for example, in the Iron Gates Region, continued their stagnation. Finally, some bigger cities along the Danube lost their
gravitation zones (Mosonmagyaróvár) or the status of a country seat (Sombor), which produced similar disadvantages as being directly on border.
