Abstract:Researches on placeness have been essential in human geography, which is effective in revealing the characters and spirit of a place. Promoted by post-modern philosophies, the topics of research have been turning to places in common life, which is facilitated by qualitative methods. We have focused our study on the food market, a typical kind of urban public place, explored the placeness of it and analyzed the formation mechanism. We choose Xinmin food market as the case and use qualitative methods, mainly through observation and in-depth interviews, to reveal the placeness of it. According to our study, placeness of the food market can be divided into three aspects:the spacial characteristics, the time characteristics, and the place meanings. The three dimensions are all abstracted from the broad range of interaction amongthe participants and the place. Firstly, the market is spatially characterized as chaotic but effective, low-end but necessary,integrated and diverse.Secondly, the time characteristics include time pace of a day, a week and a year. The time pace of the food market matches with the life pace of different customers. Thirdly, the place meanings fall into three categories:support forlife, social and emotional interacts as well as cultural and collective memories. The history and culture together with the collective memories of the market are mirrored and aroused in the market at present, and are passed down through the authentic market experiences. The formation of placeness of the food market incorporates the functions of physical settings,participants, history and culture, and modernity. All of them have interacted with the place andinfluenced mutually, resulting in the placeness of the food market today. Our study leads to understanding as well as protection and promotion of the placeness of food markets. This might also be applied to research of other heterogeneous urban spaces. Given that cities are losing characteristics in the rapid urbanization process, we believe the placeness of urban spaces deserve more attention and further research. Interpreting, caring for and recreating the placeness shall be the very way to revive traditional urban places as well as establish new ones.
