Abstract

The increase in the rate of insolvency of mortgage loans, due to the context of global crisis, has increased the number of unfinished buildings. These areas are financially deficits and sources of negative externalities from an urban point of view. The solution can be offered by reuse projects that transform the forms and functions of previous projects, which have proved incapable of generating utility and profitability. The research investigates whether from some project experiences in Italy it is possible to find valid strategies for the category. Two guidelines for intervention are outlined: Reuse or demolition. The choice also exploits the potential of urban planning tools that, conceived for the expansion phase of cities, offer new possibilities even in the regeneration phase.
