Urban Tension and Modernist Architecture as Contentious Heritage
The ‘garden city’ in the green infrastructure of the future
Contemporary urban development takes place mainly in already built areas. The article’s objective is to examine how towns on the outskirts of large cities can use and revitalise green areas and the urban heritage of garden cities to contribute to filling the societal demand for building sustainable cities. Lillestrøm, a former garden city on the outskirts of Oslo, Norway’s capital, is used as the starting point to discuss how learning from the pa…
Cultural Heritage and Sustainable Development
The concept of sustainable development continues to influence urban planning, and one of the strategies planners use to generate sustainable urban growth is the densification of urban districts. Because densification projects often take place in historic environments, however, this model might represent a challenge to the preservation of cultural heritage. With its emphasis on economic, social and environmental concerns, the popular tripartite su…
Cultural heritage as a resource for property development
Adaptive reuse of cultural heritage has for the last decades resulted in an interplay between heritage and real estate values. Transformation of former industrial sites has turned out as leading examples of this development. Commodification of heritage has come into being by property developers realising heritage resources as real estate value with the result that two different value systems appear to overlap. The creative reuse of brownfields ha…

Design/methodology/approach A current development initiative in Oslo is used to show how heritage values can be differentiated by …
Densification or Dilution? On Cultural and Economic Value Creation along the Aker River in Oslo, Norway
The regeneration of the former brownfields along the Aker River in Oslo over the last 20 years has been a realisation of heritage value as well as economic value. As a result of the intersection of these value sets, the reasons for valuation sometimes are mixed together and overlap. The heritage values emphasised seem to be based on aesthetic and economic considerations, and the heritage represented reflects what has been marketable at the variou…
