Yet this thematic vividness is typically associated with formlessness or confusing arrangement.

There is no basic order or as paths when one imagines oneself to be driving on them. Through much of the central city it is easier to fragmentarily at certain spots.

As a path, it is a ribbon rising, move east-west to and from Massachusetts Avenue than it is to dipping, and turning, studded with signs. In a curious way, both move at right angles to this direction. In this sense, the city has roads are felt to be "outside" the city, hardly related to it, even a sort of grain that is reflected in the mental contortions which though they penetrate it, and there is a dizzying transition to be accompany various imaginary trips.

Moreover, it mentioned. The regular Back Bay grid, a banal characteristic was sometimes confused with the Causeway-Commercial-Atlantic of most American cities, takes on a special quality in Boston by sequence, even though the two paths are quite different, because virtue of its contrast with the remainder of the pattern.

In good Boston fashion, individual parts of the path system may have strong character. But this highly irregular system is made up of separate elements which are only linked one by one, or sometimes not at all. It is a difficult system to draw, or to image as a whole, and must usually be handled by concentrating on the sequence of joints.

These joints or nodes are therefore quite important in Boston, and often rather pallid regions like the "Park Square area" will be named by the crossing that is their Organizing focus. Figure 8 is one way of summarizing this analysis of the Boston image, a summary which might be a first step toward the prepa- ration of a design plan.

It is a graphic compilation of what Figure 8 seem to be the major difficulties in the city image: confusions, floating points, weak boundaries, isolations, breaks in continuity, ambiguities, branchings, lacks of character or differentiation. Coupled with a presentation of the strengths and potentialities of the image, it corresponds to the site-analysis phase of a plan on a smaller scale.

Like a site analysis, it does not determine a plan but is the background upon which creative decisions can be made. Since it is made at a more comprehensive level of analy- FIG.

Crisscrossed by railroads and elevated highways, it has the appearance of a place to pass through rather than to live in.

Figure 9, page 27 It is divided into ethnic and class neighborhoods, and is cut by the ramparts of the Palisades. What might have been its natural shopping center was stifled by the artificial creation of Journal Square on the upper land, so that the city has no single center, but rather four or five. To the usual formlessness of space and heterogeneity of structure that mark the blighted area of any American city is added the complete confusion of an unco- ordinated street system.

The drabness, dirt, and smell of the town are at first overpowering. It was interesting to see how those who had lived there for many years imaged it for themselves. The visual structure of Jersey City as derived from the field reconnaissance is drawn to the same scale and uses the same sym- Figure 10 bols as the Boston diagram. The city has a little more shape and pattern than an outsider might think, as indeed it must if it is to be habitable at all.

But it has rather little and boasts of many fewer recognized elements than does the same area of Boston. Much of the area is disrupted by strong edges. The essentials of the structure are Journal Square, one of the two main shopping centers, with the line of Hudson Boulevard passing through it.

From Hudson Boulevard depends the "Bergen Section" and the important West Side Park, To the east, three paths pass down over the cliff edge to more or less converge in the lower area: Newark, Montgomery, and Communipaw-Grand. On the cliff stands the Medical Center. Everything stops at the barrier of the railroad-industrial-dock area on the Hudson. This is the essential pattern, and, except perhaps for one or two of the three downhill streets, is familiar to most subjects.

The lack of character is apparent from a glance when the con- Figures 37 arret The Jersey City Flg. Jersey City from the south map is almost bare. Journal Square is strong because of its intensive shopping and entertainment activity, but its traffic and FIG. The visual form of Jersey City as seem in the field Figure Page 28 spatial chaos are confusing and unsettling. Hudson Boulevard rivals the Square for strength; West Side Park is next, the only large park in the city, cited again and again as a distinctive region, a relief in the general texture.

The "Bergen Section" stands out primarily as a class area. The New Jersey Medical Figure 12, page 28 Center is visually unmistakable, rising tall and white from the edge of the cliff, a haphazardly located giant.

The other diagrams fill out the image of the city, adding in particular those practical necessities, the major paths, primarily the well-trafficked ones which by their continu- ity are the exceptions to the majority of Jersey City streets.

There is a paucity of recognizable districts and landmarks, and a lack of commonly known centers or nodal points. The city is, however, marked by the presence of several strong edges or iso- lating boundaries: the overhead lines of railroads and highways, the Palisades, and the two waterfronts.

In studying the individual sketches and interviews, it became apparent that none of the respondents had anything like a com- prehensive view of the city in which they had lived for many years. The maps were often fragmented, with large blank areas, concentrating most often on small home territories. The river bluff seemed to be a strong isolating element, and usually a map showed either the top as strong and the lowland as weak or, vice versa, the two being connected by one or two purely conceptual paths.

The lower area, in particular, seemed difficult to structure. The New Jersey Medical Center the most common remarks was that it was not a whole, that it had no center, but was rather a collection of many hamlets. The question: "What first comes to mind with the words 'Jersey City'?

Again and again, subjects repeated that "nothing special" came to mind, that the city was hard to symbolize, that it had no distinctive sections. One woman put it: This is really one of the most pitiful things about Jersey City. There isn't anything that if someone came here from a far place, that I could say, "Oh, I want you to see this, this is so beautiful.

Much of the characteristic feeling for Jersey City seemed to be that it was a place on the edge of something else. One person put it that his two symbols were the skyline of New York, on the one side, and the Pulaski Skyway, standing for Newark, on the other.

I mean, sometimes you can't decide which avenue tion in a familiar area, as an example: you want to go on, because they're more or less just the same; there's nothing to differentiate them.

The visual form of Los Angela as seen in the field in the car and look at it.

The fact that the Medical Center has a small landscaped plot in front of it seems to be as important an identifying characteristic as its great bulk and skyline silhou- ette. The evident low imageability of this environment was reflected in the image held even by its long-time residents, and was manifested in dissatisfaction, poor orientation, and an ina- bility to describe or differentiate its parts.

Yet even such a seemingly chaotic set of surroundings does in fact have some pat- tern, and people seize upon and elaborate this pattern by concen- tration on minor clues, as well as by shifting their attention from physical appearance to other aspects.

Los Angeles The Los Angeles area, the heart of a great metropolitan region, presents a different picture, and one quite different from Boston as well. The area, while comparable in size to the Boston and Jersey City zones, includes little more than the central business district and its fringes.

The subjects were familiar with the area, not through residence, but by reasons of work place in one Figure 14 of the central offices or stores. Figure 14 presents the field recon- naissance in the usual manner. The Hollywood and Harbor Freeways may be recog- nised as bounding the two open sides of the L The general Image is remarkable for its emptiness east of Main or Los Ange- les Streets, and south of 7th Street, except for the extension of the repeating grid.

The central area is set in a vacuum. This L-shaped center is liberally sprinkled with remembered land- Figure 43, page marks, chief of them being the Statler and Biltmore Hotels, and then, among others, the Richfield Building, the Public Library, Robinsons and Bullocks department stores, the Federal Savings Building, the Philharmonic auditorium, City Hall, and the Union Depot. But only two landmarks were described in any concrete detail: the ugly, black and gold Richfield Building and the pyra- mided top of the City Hall.

Las Angeles from the west quent rebuilding prevents the identification that builds up by historical process. The elements themselves, despite and some- times because of frequent attempts at flamboyance, are often visually faceless. Nevertheless, we are not now looking at another chaotic Jersey City, but rather at the active and ecologi- cally ordered center of a great metropolis. The accompanying aerial photograph gives an impression of Figure 15 this scene.

Except by minute attention to plant types, or to the distant background, it would be hard to distinguish this from the center of many U. There is the same piling-up of blank office structures, the same ubiquity of traffic ways and parking lots.

The image maps, however, are much more dense than those of Jersey City. The essential structure of this image is the nodal point of Per- shing Square, which lies in the crook of the L formed by two shopping streets, Broadway and 7th Street. All this is in the gen- eral matrix of a grid of paths.

At the far end of Broadway is the Civic Center area, and beyond that the sentimentally important node of the Plaza-Olvera Street. Along with the Plaza-Olvera Street node Figure 1 7 involving another open space , Pershing Square was the most sharply described element, with its immaculate central lawn, fringed first by banana trees, then by a ring of old people sitting in solid ranks on the stone walls, then by busy streets, and finally by the close files of downtown buildings.

Although remarkable, it was not always felt to be pleasant. Sometimes subjects showed fear of the old and eccentric people who use it; more often the response was one of pathos, heightened by the way in which these people are confined to the fringing walls, and kept off the cen- tral grass. Unfavorable comparisons were drawn with the earlier, if dowdier, aspect of the Square: a grove of trees, with scattered benches and walks. The central grass was resented not only be- cause of its denial to the park loungers, but because it makes it impossible to cut across the space, as a pedestrian would normally do.

Nevertheless, this is a highly identifiable image, strength- ened by the presence of a dominant landmark, the red-brown mass of the Biltmore Hotel, which efficiently orients the direction of the Square. For all its importance in the city image, Pershing Square seems to float a little. It is one block away from the two key streets, FIG.

Persbing Square 7th and Broadway, and many were uncertain of its precise loca- tion, although sure of its general one. Subjects on their trips Other than the Civic Center area, recognizable districts are tended in their minds to peer sideways for it, as they passed each either small and linear, confined to the borders of paths such as minor street. This seems bound up with its off-center location, the 7th Street shopping, the Broadway shopping, Transportation and also with the subjects' tendency to confound various streets, Row on 6th Street, the Spring Street financial district, and Skid as noted below.

The Civic Center is strongest, because of its obvious for all. As the original main street and still the largest shopping Figure 18, page 38 Figure Bunker Hill is not as strong an image, on its sidewalks, by the length and continuity of its shopping, by despite its historical connotations, and quite a few felt that it the marquees of its movie houses, and by the street cars where was "not in the downtown area.

They were quick to side-to-side differences in use or pedestrian intensity, such as describe the status differences between the Broadway crowds, and along Broadway, seem frequent enough to provide directional those to be seen on 7th Street, which, if not elite, is at least a differentiation.

But this was not universal, and an essential middle link in the structure, the imageability of districts at the medium scale, tended to be weak. In almost all the interviews, where subjects were describing the trip they took from home to work, there was a progressive decrease in the vividness of impressions as they approached down- town.

Near the home there was much detail about the slopes and turns, the vegetation and the people; there was evidence of daily interest and pleasure in the scene. Nearing the center, this image gradually became grayer, more abstract and conceptual. The downtown area, as in Jersey City, was basically a collection of named uses and store fronts.

Undoubtedly this was in part due to the increasing strain of driving on the major radials, but it seemed to persist even after leaving the car. Evidently the visual material is itself of poorer stuff. Perhaps the increasing smog also has its effect. Smog and haze, incidentally, were frequently mentioned as the torment of the city dweller.

Many file formats use compression to reduce the file size of bitmap images. Lossless techniques compress the file without removing image detail or color information; lossy techniques remove detail. The following are commonly used compression techniques:. Most useful for images with large areas of single color. Recommended for continuous-tone images, such as photographs. JPEG uses lossy compression.

For the best printed results, choose maximum-quality compression. A family of lossless compression techniques for black-and-white images, supported by the PDF and PostScript language file formats.

For more information, see Help for the specific Adobe applications. When saving a PSD, you can set a preference to maximize file compatibility. This saves a composite version of a layered image in the file so it can be read by other applications, including previous versions of Photoshop.

It also maintains the appearance of the document, just in case future versions of Photoshop change the behavior of some features. Including the composite also makes the image much faster to load and use in applications other than Photoshop, and may sometimes be required to make the image readable in other applications.

Mac OS You can use this format to open an image in Photoshop 2. Saving in Photoshop 2. You can use DCS 2.

Encapsulated PostScript EPS language file format can contain both vector and bitmap graphics and is supported by virtually all graphics, illustration, and page-layout programs. EPS format is used to transfer PostScript artwork between applications.

When you open an EPS file containing vector graphics, Photoshop rasterizes the image, converting the vector graphics to pixels. EPS does support clipping paths. You use DCS 2. You can edit and use an opened preview image just as any other low-resolution file.

The current version of Photoshop includes rasterization features for opening files that include vector data. The Photoshop Raw format is a flexible file format for transferring images between applications and computer platforms.

Documents saved in the Photoshop Raw format can be of any pixel or file size, but they cannot contain layers. The Photoshop Raw format consists of a stream of bytes describing the color information in the image. Photoshop designates the number of channels needed to describe the image, plus any additional channels in the image. The file creator is also generally a four-character ID.

The Header parameter specifies how many bytes of information appear in the file before actual image information begins. This value determines the number of zeroes inserted at the beginning of the file as placeholders. You can enter a header when you open the file in Raw format. You can also save the file without a header and then use a file-editing program, such as HEdit Windows or Norton Utilities Mac OS , to replace the zeroes with header information.

You can save the image in an interleaved or non-interleaved format.
