Over the last one and a half century, numerous parkways have been built in Brooklyn. The definition and design of these big infrastructures have changed over time from green pleasure drives for carriages to the main traffic arteries they are today.
In this case study, Haussmann's boulevards in Paris are briefly discussed, because they served as an example for many of the parkways later built. The definition of a parkway differs in time, as will be explained by the examples in this case study: the first parkways designed by Olmsted and Vaux, the first "modern" parkway and the parkways envisioned by Robert Moses.
