The much-praised "Cultural Quarters" returns in a revised edition, offering new case studies and new chapters on the economics of cultural quarters and the importance of historic buildings. This definitive text provides a conceptual context for cultural quarters through a detailed discussion of urban design and planning. Drawing on several case studies (from Bolton; Birmingham, England; Ireland; and Vienna), "Cultural Quarters" positions the emergence of specific cultural areas within a historical and social context and explores the economics of maintaining these districts.
The book offers a concise illustration of how cultural practice is maintained and expanded within an urban environment.
