Patrimonio e rigenerazione urbana a Madrid (Spagna). La tabacalera e Madrid Rio

Cultural heritage is a dinamic concept, enriched over time through continous reflections and by different per spectives. In recent decades, the need to move beyond traditional constraining instruments in favour of more operational strategies is experimented. This has led to an evolution from historicist postulates, and of exclusive conservation, to a broader approach in which the relevance of the built asset is measured, beyond its historical and architectural value, by its capacity to regenerate a territory with a social impact. The Madrid Rio and Tabacalera cases are examples of these parameters.
