Novi Sad is a typical Central European town in terms of its architecture. The Town Hall and the Court House were built by Emmerich Kitzweger (1868–1917). The city was almost completely destroyed during the [[revolutions of 1848 in the Habsburg areas|1848/1849 revolution]], so architecture from the 19th century dominates the [[Stari Grad, Novi Sad|city centre]]. Small, older houses used to surround the centre of town, but they are now being replaced by modern, multi-story buildings.

During the socialist period, new city blocks with wide streets and multi-story buildings were constructed around the city core. However, not many [[plattenbau|communist-style]] high-rise buildings were erected. The total number of [[apartment building]]s, with ten or more floors, remained at about 50, the rest having mostly three to six floors. From 1962 to 1964, a new [[boulevard]], today called ''Bulevar oslobođenja'', was cut through the older neighbourhoods, establishing major communication lines. Several more boulevards were subsequently built in a similar manner, creating an [[Orthogonality|orthogonal]] network which replaced the primarily radial structure of the old town. These interventions paved the way for a relatively unhampered growth of the city, which has almost tripled in population since the 1950s. Despite a huge increase in car ownership, [[traffic congestion]] is still relatively mild, apart from a few major arteries.

Some of the oldest neighbourhoods in the city are [[Stari Grad, Novi Sad|Stari Grad]] (Old Town), [[Rotkvarija (Žitni Trg)|Rotkvarija]], [[Podbara]], and [[Salajka]]. The areas of [[Sremska Kamenica]] and [[Petrovaradin]], located on the right bank of the Danube, were separate towns in the past, but today belong to the urban area of Novi Sad. [[Liman, Novi Sad|Liman]], as well as [[Bistrica (Novo Naselje)|Bistrica]], are neighbourhoods built during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, with contemporary style buildings and wide boulevards ([[Liman, Novi Sad|Liman]] was divided into four sections, numbered I–IV).

New neighbourhoods, like [[Liman, Novi Sad|Liman]], [[Detelinara]] and [[Bistrica, Novi Sad|Bistrica]], emerged from the fields and forests surrounding the city. Following World War II, tall residential buildings were constructed to house the huge influx of people leaving the country side. Many old houses in the city centre, from the [[Rotkvarija (Žitni Trg)|Rotkvarija]] and [[Bulevar]] neighbourhoods, were torn down in the 1950s and 1960s, to be replaced by multi-story buildings.  Since the city has experienced a major construction boom in the last 10 years, some neighbourhoods like [[Adamovićevo Naselje (Novi Sad)|Adamovićevo Naselje]] have completely been transformed.

Neighbourhoods with single-family homes are mostly located away from the city centre. [[Telep]], situated in the southwest, and [[Klisa, Serbia|Klisa]], in the north, are the oldest such districts. [[Adice]] and [[Veternik]], both located west of the downtown area, have significantly expanded during the last 15 years, partly due to the influx of Serbian refugees fleeing the [[Yugoslav wars]].

=== Suburbs ===
[[File:Petrovaradin, Novi Sad, 05 11 2023.jpg|thumb|upright=1.0|Beogradska street in [[Petrovaradin]], 2023.]]

While Novi Sad's urban municipalities, which include [[Petrovaradin]], [[Sremska Kamenica]] and Novi Sad proper, have a combined population of about 277,000, its suburban areas have approximately 65,000 inhabitants. Some 23.7% of the administrative city's total population resides in the suburbs, which consist of 12 settlements and 1 town.<ref name=Census>{{Serbian census 2011 |page=84-87}}</ref> The largest numbers live in [[Futog]] (pop. 20,000) and in [[Veternik]] (pop. 17,000) to the west. Both places have grown bigger over the years, especially during the 1990s, and have physically merged with the city.

Suburbs like Futog are officially classified as an '<nowiki/>''urban settlement'<nowiki/>'' (town), while other suburbs are mostly considered to be '<nowiki/>''rural''' (village). [[Ledinci]], [[Stari Ledinci]] and [[Bukovac, Novi Sad|Bukovac]] are all villages located on [[Fruška Gora]]'s slopes, with the last two having only one paved road. [[Stari Ledinci]] is the most isolated and least populated village belonging to Novi Sad's suburban areas.

Towns and villages in the adjacent municipalities of [[Sremski Karlovci]], [[Temerin]] and [[Beočin]] share the same public transportation system and are economically tied to Novi Sad.
