Opportunities for integrating the historical industrial enterprises into the modern urban environment in Rostov-on-Don

Abstract

Today, historical industrial facilities and their territory, located earlier on the outskirts, industrial enterprises with the growth and development of cities, were included in their architectural and planning structure. There is currently a clear tendency to orient the historical industrial heritage objects to urban public spaces using the re-functionalization methods in the historical industrial heritage reconstruction in our country and foreign design practice. The relevance of the industrial facilities’ reconstruction in Rostov-on-Don is due to the presence of irrationally used urban areas and the need to create the universal modern spaces for work, leisure and entertainment in the central residential quarters of the city. The study examined two industrial heritage sites and presented the design solutions for them.
