URBAN PLANNING INSTITUTE OF BELGRADE URBAN PLANNING INSTITUTE OF BELGRADE 30, Palmo ceva St, Belgrade, SERBIA Phone (+38111)3331-500 / Fax (+38111)3331-550 offi [email protected] The fi rst pro-European Town Plan of Belgrade was introduced by Alban Chambon, a French architect of Belgian descent, in 1912, exactly a century ago. As he was an ardent supporter of historical tendencies or eclec sm, he modeled his view of town reconstruc on on a reinterpreta on of the past and the interna onal heritage. Daring ideas in his Plan have been a steady inspira on to genera ons of urban planners, and some of these ideas are s ll employed, with same mo fs but using diff erent technique, dynamism or method. Urban Planning Ins tute of Belgrade is s ll searching for solu ons for: turning the city towards Sava River, estab- lishing and maintaining the old and the New Belgrade city axes, promo on and maintenance of the City’s natural core, waterfront enhancement, dis nguishing signifi cant landmarks and strengthening the city iden- ty through introduc on of City symbols. In a me of long-las ng transi on and prepara on for Belgrade to become one of the European metropolises, Urban Planning Ins tute has been ac ve on two parallel tracks. Being one of the City public service u li es, it follows and supports City Administra on in recovery of residen al areas built without due planning, build- ing and reconstruc on of capital infrastructure and transporta on systems, in preparing loca ons for new schools and nurseries, and construc on of non-profi t social housing units. At the same me, the Ins tute is engaged on revision of all regional, spa al and urban plans for the territory of Belgrade city proper and its seven suburban municipali es. At the same me, Urban Planning Ins tute is engaged in strategic studies such as Belgrade City Development Strategy, special studies, strategic urban plans and spe- cifi c projects. A century a er Chambon, UPI is working on the new, pro-European Master Plan of Belgrade and General Regula on Plan for the en re city territory. It is essen al for the success of such kind of projects that Urban Planning Ins tute gathers knowledge, com- pares experiences and cooperates with urban planning ins tu ons from ci es in Europe and worldwide, with local and foreign professional associa ons and universi- es. One cannot exist without the other: plans and projects are being made for the period to come. An cipa on of the future would not be successful without understand- ing the historical processes, as well as contemporary solu ons in city planning and management; without understanding trends in architecture and urban design, and permanent evalua on of ideas and experiences from more developed cites. Refurbishing and legaliza- on of unplanned developments are processes that are indispensable, as a result of the period behind us. But planning can be therefore considered as genuine challenge in this era of rapid changes, without boundar- ies, new technologies and knowledge, new priori es, commitments and global investment trends. The tasks and the dynamism of our me make it neces- sary to have experience, develop skills, gather knowl- edge, curiosity, communica on, and like Chambon, have the courage to propose bold ideas for a be er and more beau ful Belgrade. Director Zaklina Gligorijevic BELGRADE CITY DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY Goals, concept and strategic priori es of sustainable development Belgrade City Development Strategy is a common document of the City of Belgrade and its ci zens.
