Industrial heritage can be considered a significant asset of modern
civilization, predominately epitomizing the living patrimony of
industrialization processes. Notwithstanding, it represents today
under-valuated heritages, the result of massive industrial site
closures due to political and economic changes through the years.
This book focuses on the recognition of underused Albanian
industrial sites, mostly built during the communist period, and
proposals for potential regeneration models, based on successful
international examples. The majority of Albanian degraded sites are
deemed as an objective of high priority from central government and
municipalities, taking in consideration their large areas and good
possibilities of these "silent" assets redevelopment, having the
opportunity to become the promotors of the development of cities.
The book follows with a descriptive analysis of international
positive cases, reflecting how these interventions can be
appropriately applied for Albanian cases. Consistent reuse
methodologies have been proposed based on three pillars: economic
and urban, environmental and heritage. Finally, the book presents a
general conclusion for practical applications of the
above-mentioned methodologies, as a positive approach to promote
sites revitalization and promotion at a national and international
level.
