Abstract
In the modern world, increased attention is paid to the sustainable development of urban areas. The sustainability concept embedded in urban planning and architecture leads to the emergence of some other approaches and ideologies. While they may have different emphases, they generally agree with principles and goals of sustainable urban development. Since the end of the last century, the application of this concept in the city has influenced the city and its structure. Lonely this change must come to an omission of the quality of life and people’s relation to the environment.
Purpose: The aim of this work is to examine the influence of application of the sustainable development concept to the city development; consider and analyze this concept. The main attention is paid to problems and solutions of this concept in the urban structure.
Methodology/approach: Consideration of the sustainable development concept and its application in the city; the city analysis before and after the use of this concept; discussion of advantages and disadvantages of this concept.
Research findings: Each city has its own system of coherent urban thinking, a solution to achieve the goal of sustainable development, and a certain approach to a structural solution.
