CURRENT TRENDS AND PROBLEMS OF DEVELOPMENT OF CITY PARKS

Greened public spaces which include urban parks transform under the influence of the growing needs of the population in qualitative, imbued with meaning, places with various functions. The new understanding of the parks, which are created on unsuitable for construction territories, wasteland and former industrial use areas, is becoming topical for modern European cuties. The trends in world park construction are considered in the article, innovative parks with an unconventional interpretation of natural materials and new filling of park areas are analyzed. The main problems of development of the urban Russian parks, among which the author emphasizes the standard approach to environment formation, lack of usability and functionality, low technical level of arrangement, lack of emotional component in composition, are explored based on comparative analysis of park spaces. Along with disadvantages, there are advantages of Russian parks: availability and opportunity of arranging city events, outdoor recreation in the city. The principles and features of ecological parks, which gain popularity in foreign and native urban planning practice, are explored. A concept of ecological park, maximally preserving natural landscape, using unpretentious plants and modern technologies of recourse consumption, is uncovered. It is proved that designing and building of the ecological park is optimal for natural systems in the city. The analysis of the state of public green spaces of the city of Kursk is presented; the ways of solving the problem of improving comfort of the urban environment are planned; the necessity to include the riverside areas into the list of improvement zones of the Municipal Program "Building a Comfortable Urban Environment" for 2018-2022 is justified.
