摘要：The ubiquitous sameness of urban greenways prompts questions on generative design grammar and syntax, whether creative, critical rethinking at that level might be lacking. However the design syntax of urban greenways is not explicitly discussed thus leaving a critical gap in knowledge. This paper begins tackling the larger question by acting on the fundamental subset of it, by operationatizing the design syntax of urban greenways. This is done through mathematics-based graph studies to analyze patterns and shapes, photography based thermal, material and morphology studies, and section analyses to make imagery-derived deductions on the design syntax. Recommendation on approaches to diversify and enrich the design syntax includes a more direct reference from ecosystem science theories such for siting and planning the urban greenways at macro- to meso-scale, a mixed-method approach, combining mathe- matics, photography and drawings based frames for analyses at meso- to micro-scale, and a turtle view scale for designing at meso- to micro-scale, with an emphasis on latter.

摘要：主要探讨了绿道的设计和实践是否能够以及如何满足粮食和燃料的可持续发展需求。概括了连接型设计、包容型设计和复合网络型设计这3种主要的绿道设计类型;倡导标量多样化、从社区到整个城市都可以广泛采用的复合网络型绿道设计;阐明绿色网络设计为社区的社会文化、生态和经济福祉带来的可持续效应;明确指出了绿道设计作为一种协同景观,可以为城市和更为广阔的生物物理环境之间构建和谐关系;倡导运用新的绿道设计和规划实践来更加有效地应对可持续发展面临的挑战,并以景观协同作为首要的设计理念。
