Answer 1

There are 4 kinds of unplanned business district.They are as follows:-

• Central business district (CBD):- A Central Business District (CBD) is the main center of commerce and trade in the city. It is characterized by peak land rates and intense developments. The shopping area within this district is usually different from the main office area. It has good accessibility in terms of transport from all the parts of the city. An example of a Central Business District in Mumbai would be Colaba or Nariman Point. In New Delhi, the same would apply to Connaught Place, which for long has been the center of business and commerce.
• Secondary business district (SBD):- The Secondary Business District (SBD) is one, which has evolved over a period of time, with the spread of population within the city. A city my have more than one SBD. An SBD is characterized by a good mix of retailers, the stores are nearly smaller than those in the CBD and public transportation is adequate.
• Neighborhood business district (NBD):- A Neighborhood Business District on the other hand, is an unplanned shopping area that has developed to serve the needs of the neighborhood. It is characterized by the presence of stores like a supermarket, stationery stores, medical shops etc.
• String:- an unplanned shopping area comprising a group of retail stores, often with similar or compatible product lines, located along a street or highway.
