An urban canyon (also known as a street canyon) is a place where the street is flanked by buildings on both sides creating a canyon-like environment, evolved etymologically from the Canyon of Heroes in Manhattan. Such human-built canyons are made when streets separate dense blocks of structures, especially skyscrapers. Other examples include the Magnificent Mile in Chicago, Los Angeles' Wilshire Boulevard corridor, Toronto's Financial District, and Hong Kong's Kowloon and Central districts.

  • Een straatcanyon (Engels: street canyon of urban canyon) is een locatie waar een straat aan beide zijden geflankeerd wordt door gebouwen, waardoor een canyon-achtige omgeving wordt gevormd. Deze door de mens gebouwde canyons ontstaan bij straten met dichte bebouwingsstructuren, veelal wolkenkrabbers. Voorbeelden hiervan zijn de Magnificent Mile in Chicago, het Financial District in Toronto, Broadway in Manhattan, alsook Kowloon en Central in Hongkong. (nl)

  • An urban canyon (also known as a street canyon) is a place where the street is flanked by buildings on both sides creating a canyon-like environment, evolved etymologically from the Canyon of Heroes in Manhattan. Such human-built canyons are made when streets separate dense blocks of structures, especially skyscrapers. Other examples include the Magnificent Mile in Chicago, Los Angeles' Wilshire Boulevard corridor, Toronto's Financial District, and Hong Kong's Kowloon and Central districts. Urban canyons affect various local conditions, including temperature, wind, light, air quality, and radio reception, including satellite navigation signals. (en)

Os desfiladeiros urbanos causam impacto em várias condições locais, incluindo temperatura (originando microclimas e ilhas de calor), condições de vento, qualidade do ar, e capacidade de recepção de ondas de rádio, incluindo sinais de sistemas de posicionamento por satélite como o GPS.
