Railway Station as an Element of the Colonial City of Industry: Case Study Cianjur Railway Station

Abstract

Abstract In the 19th colonial era, Cianjur has become one of the cities where the agroindustry has developed since the presence of the railway. The railway station is the place where the plantation products will be lifted and lowered by the train, and it becomes a significant city element for several small cities. This study aims to examine the history of urban space by investigating the historical traces of the object of this research, Cianjur Railway Station, to find its role as a new element in the colonial period. The method is qualitative with station studies in colonial urban spaces with analytical descriptive in presenting findings related to the relationship between the railway’s station and the development of agro-industries in Cianjur in its role as colonial city elements. The existence of the railway station, in the colonial period, made Cianjur not only as an administrative center but also as a distribution-production of industrial center. The space city study of Cianjur through the railway station brings us to rethink the current urban space network of local heritage that has changed to our basis in managing the city in the future.
