This paper’s focus is the regeneration of the urban waterfront
promenade, strengthening its role in the resolution of
specific seaside cities’ spatial and economic problematic. It
is a descriptive and analytical study of the winner proposal
for Vlora waterfront promenade, which aims to turn the
city into a significant urban coastal area for regional recreation
and tourism. It also strives to rely on a theoretical
background on waterfront space redesigning, based on the
European experiences in urban waterfront redevelopment
and on the potential of their regeneration, as an instrument
of economic development.
It concludes that since the waterfront redevelopment
scheme is a complex, multi-actor and long-term program
that has to cope with changing economic and political conditions,
the planners should be very cautious of adopting
elements of successful international examples, for reasons
of uniqueness of local environmental, physical, economic
and political preconditions.
