The redesign of Potsdamer Platz depicts the struggle to revive
Berlin, Germany. This central and highly visible square has
undergone a series of strategic revisions to restore its vitality
and so to meet place-enhancing objectives. Specifically, the book
critically addresses the challenging tasks of restoring Potsdamer
Platz from a state of disintegration to a condition worthy of a
world-class city, although the questions remain unanswered as to
how far the objectives have been achieved. The book enables readers
to become familiar with the various stages of transformation, aided
by the authors' hand-drawn illustration - a series of sketches
accompanied by narrations focusing on how to critically read
'cities in transformation'. As a whole, it presents an overview of
the strategic process of urban regeneration. The findings from this
theoretical exploration help reposition our understanding of the
process of re-making a 'city in decay and transition'; and
introduces new strands of regeneration ideologies, politics and
methods.
