VersoPescara 2027. Dossier di ricerca. Con CD-ROM. Vol. 2

This book illustrates the scientific results of the studies and researches on strategic transformation areas in the city of Pescara. The studies were performed as part of the important Memorandum of Understanding signed between the Department of Architecture of the Università G. d'Annunzio and the Pescara Municipality. The first volume focuses on the 'Vision', i.e., the city of the future concept involving the establishment of strategic medium-to-long term objectives. The first volume also provides concise information about the projects for the ten strategic urban areas drafted during the Summer School 2015; these are the ten most important urban opportunities Pescara believes will make the city territorially competitive in the years to come. The second book illustrates the roughly twenty research Dossiers focusing on the multidisciplinary scientific topics applied to the Pescara case studies. A comprehensive interpretation of the studies and researches paints an interesting picture of disciplinary progress on the topic of Urban Revitalisation, considered not only as zero land consumption construction, but also as an orderly ensemble of economic, social, cultural and ethical actions capable of influencing the behaviour of the city's inhabitants and stimulating new sensibilities.
