Description
The city of Birmingham offers a particularly rich case study on urban regeneration as it strives to build a new city image. Positioned between decline and regeneration, the landscape of the city and its environs collages old and new, producing dramatic contrasts of industrial and postindustrial urbanisms of crumbling brutalism and spectacular flagship developments, of Victorian housing and diverse cultural lifestyles that compound the aesthetic and socioeconomic means of regeneration. This visually appealing book also reflects upon and extends current debates about public space, cultural zoning and the futures of cities.
