MUSCAT CITY PLANNING - Proposed Preservation Study vol. 2

Muscat City Planning - Proposed Preservation Study, Stage I Preliminary Report, Volume 2.  Please note that the Mohamed Makiya Archive does not include a related "Volume 1".  However, the subsequent report or booklet includes mention that the drawings and plans done for an exhibition may constitute a presentation that was to be considered part of the two volume environmental study.

In June 1972 His Majesty the Sultan of Oman commissioned Makiya Associates to act as planning consultants to undertake a comprehensive survey of the existing city and to draw up proposals for conservation and future development.  A master plan was developed including planning proposals and legislative recommendations for implementation.  This was presented as a two volume report including a panel exhibition of photographs and drawings of the city as existing and as proposed.  The following summary report is based on that material and on the further results of several years practice as the physical planners of the city of Muscat.
