Abstract: | The research is concerned with the problem of urban identity, which is becoming an important issue as a result of a range of global, economy-driven changes that urban environment is facing nowadays. Frankfurt and Rotterdam were selected for analysis and comparison. Both of these cities lost most of their historical identity during the war destructions and post-war renewal, contrasting the traditionalism-based viewpoints regarding the predominant importance of heritage in positioning on a global competitive stage. The research therefore focuses not only on the revival of the past and tradition-oriented trend for strengthening local identity, but also on the new means of urban identity building and alternatives in contemporary architecture innovative design for ensuring sustainable urban development. |
