The ultimate resource on strategies for redeveloping abandoned
urban sites
Architects, urban planners, urban designers, developers, city
officials, and all those interested in revitalizing their
post-industrial cities will find the tools they need here.
Redeveloping Industrial Sites delivers solutions to complex issues
concerning urban planning, design, and financing to reveal lessons
on ways to successfully convert decaying land and buildings into
vibrant parks, stimulating cultural destinations, and active
commercial complexes. In addition, carefully chosen real-world
examples illustrate topics such as sustainability, public policy,
and developer know-how to form a complete picture of the elements
involved in planning and executing urban redevelopment projects.
Redeveloping Industrial Sites:
Covers strategies used to turn abandoned industrial sites into
vibrant new neighborhoods and special districts such as Toronto''s
Distillery District and Philadelphia''s Piazza at Schmidts
Emphasizes design and economic issues that urban planners and
city officials need to plan successful projects as well as manage
spontaneous neighborhood transformations such as loft
conversions
Includes case studies of a variety of redevelopments from across
North America and Europe ranging from large projects such as New
York''s Hudson River Park and Amsterdam''s harbor to the small, but
important neighborhood regenerators such as Baltimore''s American
Brewery Building for Humanim
Examines how cities from Minneapolis, Minnesota to North Adams,
Massachusetts, to Swansea, Wales harnessed the forces of tourism
and art to transform their mills and harbors
Providing historical context as well as current perspective,
Redeveloping Industrial Sites offers clear direction on repurposing
derelict and polluted wastelands and warehouses into vital, living
extensions of their communities.
