Abstract(s)

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.
