Contributor Berghauser Pont, M. (mentor) Zandbelt, D. (mentor) Faculty Architecture Department Urbanism Programme European Postgraduate Masters in Urbanism Date 2011-07-01 Abstract The thesis is developed around the concept of the “intermediate city”. In fact, during this precarious phase set by the economical crisis and worsened by the shrinking condition of the city, it is necessary for Rotterdam to work in an “intermediate dimension” in several terms: of scale, time, financing and also location, focussing more on those parts of the city that have been neglected for a long time, in favour of concentrated interventions in the downtown and in the suburban edges, thus addressing limited targets of population. Two complementary strategies, based on the same principles but with different processes and hypothesis, are proposed in order to depict an alternative model of urban regeneration as a basis for a more sustainable development.
