Transformation of Prague brownfields: Waltrovka case study
Vácha, Jan ; Nemeškal, Jiří (advisor) ; Pospíšilová, Lucie (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of brownfields, their definition, classification and comparison with competing greenfields. The first objective of this thesis is locating brownfields in Prague and their subsequent statistical analysis. The second goal of the thesis is to analyse the processes of change that have taken place on the site of the former Walter aircraft engine factory in Jinonice, where a brownfield has been revitalised into completely new residential- commercial district, which has a great impact not only on its residents but also on the wider area of Jinonice. In the context of the revitalisation, the thesis also deals with the sociogeographical analysis of Waltrovka and an interesting part is the chapter about genius loci that is a very prominent part of this modern neighbourhood. Key words: brownfield, revitalization, Prague, Waltrovka, genius loci, ecological burden
