Modern Transformations of City Riverfront - Comparison of the Riverfronts of Belgrade and Zagreb
Abstract
City riverfronts are parts of urban areas that have become increasingly interesting in space
reconstruction and revitalization in the last few decades. This situation has occurred due to several
different factors. The most important factor is undoubtedly the value of the land along the river and
the possibility of forming high-quality spatial landscapes. In these parts of the city, in urban centres
worldwide, attempts are being made to organise the entire life of the city. This research seeks to
examine changes in the examples of the city riverfronts of Belgrade and Zagreb. These two cities
are attractive for research because they were formed on the banks of the same river and have
similar spatial-geographical characteristics. To research the mentioned changes in the paper, the
spatial planning and urban documentation will be analyzed, focusing on the transformations of the
riverfront of the two mentioned cities. It is important to emphasise that this paper seeks to examine
t...he transformations in the last twenty years, i.e. in the 21st century. This research tries to
summarise all the changes made to the city riverfronts and their effects on the spatial configuration
of Belgrade and Zagreb. It also seeks to answer whether such space transformations are favourable or not, or what impact do they have on changing the broader image of the city. Based on the results, proposals and guidelines for future transformations of urban riverfronts will be given at the end of the paper.
