Winter University 2020: Redevelopment

Abstract

The given materials present the projects of international teams that took part in the 21st session of the International Baikal Winter University of Town Planning Design devoted to redevelopment of uncomfortable city districts with a high share of mixed and industrial use. Studying the case of improvement of Zhilkino settlement in Irkutsk, the teams proposed new ideas for dealing with built-up areas, which could be realized not only for Zhilkino, but also for other similar districts around the world. Redevelopment of ineffectively used territories as hidden resources for urban development is of crucial importance.
