Description

Suitable modernisation of historic buildings can generate extremely diverse opinions and proposes a large task for developed European towns and cities. This title, third in a series of architectural pocket guides to Hamburg, tackles the issues and presents projects actually implemented in recent years as well as plans inprogress. The volume takes a look at changes that affect buildings of very different ages in fast succession: including improvements in energy use, extensions, conversions, added floors and incorporation into new social/urban-development contexts. It also takes account of existing listed structures and decisions for and against demolition and intelligent re-use.

About the Author

Peter Hetherington, former regional affairs and northern editor of The Guardian, was a reporter at The Journal, Newcastle, covering local government – focussing on local politics and redevelopment – during the early 70s. Latterly he has written about planning, housing, regeneration and local government for The Guardian and other publications, and travelled extensively in Britain and overseas covering that field. He was a board member of the government's former Academy for Sustainable Communities, a member of its former urban sounding board, and is currently a vice president, trustee and policy council member of the Town and Country Planning Association.
