Summary
"This book reviews four decades of debate about restoring an industrial heritage site of inestimable value - the Venice Arsenal. Focussing on the challenges of economic, financial, and institutional feasibility, it reveals how failing to address these aspects has undermined potential solutions from both technicians and heritage professionals. With a deep connection to the city over centuries, the Arsenal was the very basis of La Serenissima's sea power, enabling its economic expansion. Later, it maintained a vital military function through shipbuilding until World War II. But the slow process of abandonment of the traditional site's uses and spaces uses continues to pose questions regarding its preservation and re-use. Drawing on original research from urban planners, architects, and historians, the book provides a critical investigation into the organizational and managerial challenges of this unique site, and crucially, why so little has been achieved compared to potential opportunities. Featuring numerous colour photographs and exploring the particular challenges of restoration and re-use facing the Venice Arsenal, this insightful evaluation of the history of this site provides a uniquely informative case for the discipline of industrial heritage"-- Provided by publisher.
