Urban Design Competition and Megaprojects in a Context of Identity of Cultural Heritage: Case Study Belgrade`s Riverfronts
Апстракт
Industrial heritage sites that have lost their original function represent significant and
valuable cultural heritage which is a part of the urban memory and material evidence of
the past, with whose decay a city is losing a part of its history. This paper deals with the
problem of preserving identity of industrial heritage sites in the process of sustainable urban
regeneration. More precisely, paper deals with the problem of preserving tangible as well
as intangible attributes of industrial heritage identity within a context of contemporary
projects of urban regeneration. The significance of this problem lies within the contradiction
between the industrial heritage sites as places intended for new urban functions in
accordance with strategies of contemporary urban development and the industrial heritage
sites as places with the inherited spatial, functional and cultural values important to the
community. Therefore, the main planning task of sustainable regeneration is findin...g the
balance between preservation and change of industrial heritage sites. In planning practice
these changes are most often driven by economic and environmental interests, while
cultural values as active components of material culture and urban memory of citizens are
neglected. On the other hand, this problem arises from the ambiguous notion of industrial
heritage identity, as well as from the lack of appropriate planning tools for identifying and
analysing identity attributes that are valuable to preserve.
The aim of this paper is to draw attention to the complexity of identity of industrial heritage
stemming from the various tangible as well as intangible values of cultural heritage.
The paper advocates for using the concept of place as a framework for identifying and
investigating identity attributes of industrial heritage sites which contribute to decision
making in the initial phase of planning process. The planning treatment of industrial
heritage identity in the process of riverfronts regeneration is analysed on the example of
urban design competitions and megaprojects in Belgrade. The riverfront regeneration has
been initiated through a series of urban plans, projects and design competitions. Some
of these plans are located within two planned urban megaprojects: “Danube port” and
“Belgrade on water”. Analysis show that the imbalance between the ambitions of the
city (authorities, professional associations) and current economic capabilities (overscale,
expensive, not considering implementation in phases) is one of the main problems for the
implementation of the plans and projects.
