Abstract

SCHUBERT, Dirk. Waterfront transformations and city/port interface areas in Hamburg. Dimens.empres. [online]. 2015, vol.13, n.1, pp.9-20. ISSN 1692-8563.  https://doi.org/10.15665/rde.v13i1.335.

Hamburg has had a major transformation at the urban level within the metropolitan region including the increase of population and the challenge to ensure an adequate supply for the housing market and the growing number of households. The most important idea is a new concept of spatial development which is harnessing the potential of a growing city by "more city in the city". The vision is based on a growing port and key growth industries to strengthen Hamburg's role as engine of economic dynamic. The future space requirements, technical infrastructure and new container terminals are costly and generate a challenge for the entire city, also reflecting the protection of the environment. In Hamburg this re-development is carried out in areas next to the city centre while new container terminals were located at the periphery. Three different approaches can be analysed with different planning approaches, from a project based strategy, to a larger urban area and last not least to a whole river island Wilhelmsburg.

Keywords : waterfront transformation; interfaces areas; city port development.
