Adam Drobniak, Lucjan Goczoł, Magdalena Kolka, Mateusz Skowroński Adam Drobniak, Lucjan Goczoł, Magdalena Kolka, Mateusz Skowroński THE URBAN ECONOMIC RESILIENCE IN POST-INDUSTRIAL CITY – THE CASE OF KATOWICE AND BYTOM ADAM DROBNIAK, LUCJAN GOCZOŁ, MAGDALENA KOLKA, MATEUSZ SKOWROŃSKI 1. Methodological remarks to the case studies Presented case studies was focused on recognition of the research problem connected with evaluation of resilience level of the selected post-industrial cities (Katowice and Bytom) in relation to other Polish cities, which often have diffe- rent circumstances of economic development (e.g. not always linked with a mi- ning industry). Among comparative cities the following were identyfied: Wro- cław and Gdynia. The selection criteria for the comparative cities to Katowice and Bytom inc- lude the administrative division of the country. Hence, for Katowice as the capi- tal of the NUTS2 Silesia region – Wrocław as the capital of the Low Silesia region was identified. While for Bytom as a town with the status of a county – Gdynia town, with the same status in administrative division and a similar popu- lation potential was indicated. Research tasks make up the solution to the problem posed included: – description of a socio-economic background of the analysed cities; – indication of changes impacting the analysed cities development during 1995-2010, which significantly had determined their development paths; – implementation of quantitative evaluation of identified changes on the analy- sed cities development paths. This was made by calculation of indexes reflec- ting: employment level, budgets revenues from companies’ profit taxes, level of population in both surveyed cities along with comparative ones. The Hill approach was used in that part of research (Hill et al. 2010); – identification of new developments in rebuilding Katowice’s and Bytom’s economic resilience; – formulation of conclusions referring to level of urban economic resilience with application of research findings from Simmie and Martin investigations (Simmie, Martin, 2009). 2. The Katowice case 2.1. Katowice – the socio-economic background of the city Katowice (306 thousands of inhabitants in 2010), as the capital of the Sile- sia Region (NUTS2 level, 4.6 million of inhabitants), is having the highest popu- lation and service sector potentials of the Upper Silesian Agglomeration (also called Silesia Metropoly)*. the Agglomeration remains the largest urbanised and * The city’s residents constitute approximately 16% of the Agglomeration’s population, and the potential of service sector is approximately 30% of the overall services’ sector potential within the Agglomeration. 88 THE URBAN ECONOMIC RESILIENCE IN POST-INDUSTRIAL CITY… industrialised area in Poland, numbering around 2 millions inhabitants. Its rapid social and economic development in the twentieth century was associated with a development of heavy industry, mainly mining and metallurgy sectors. The Agglo- meration covers two basic groups of different cities (Klasik, 2008, pp. 52-53), i.e.: – the first group includes the cities and towns numbering more than 100 thou- sands of inhabitants like: Katowice (the capital of the Silesia Voivodeship and the core city of the Agglomeration), Sosnowiec, Gliwice, Zabrze, Bytom, Ruda Śląska, Tychy, Dąbrowa Górnicza, and Chorzów; – the second group includes towns with population from 50 to 100 thousands of inhabitants, like: Jaworzno, Mysłowice, Siemianowice Śląskie, Piekary Ślą- skie and Świętochłowice. Just like in almost all the Silesia Region (Transformation, 1994), also in the case of Katowice and the Agglomeration processes of restructuring of heavy industry left their indelible ‘mark’ on the social and economic structures. The effects of structural changes in 1995-2010 were manifested inter alia in the level of unemployment, the number of companies, population’s potential, the size of investment (Business Central Europe, 1997; Drobniak, 2003). The scale of these effects was also different in relation to individual cities and towns of the Agglo- meration. Some of them, i.e. mainly Katowice, Gliwice, Tychy growed up to be leaders of change in terms of development of the service sector, attracting fore- ign direct investment, creation of new businesses and jobs. In other cities and towns (like for example: Bytom, Świętochłowice, Piekary Śląskie) the processes of restructuring traditional industries have had such a large socio-economic im- pact that the processes of their redevelopment – even now – are relatively weak (Suchaček, Wink, Drobniak, 2012). 2.2. Changes impacting the city development during 1995-2010 For Katowice the years 1995-2010 are the period of many positive and ne- gative changes. Up to 2005 the most negative impact on Katowice’s economy had changes in mining and steel industry sectors. During this period reduction of 300 thousands jobs in the Silesia region as a result of mining reform took place. At the same time the city itself and the region took attempts to create condi- tions for new development impulses. For instance, the Regional Contract for Silesia Voivodeship, which is the first example in Poland of document relating to regional policy including assistance for a region undergoing major changes of economic structure. In analysed period, in Katowice few essential investments were realised progressively changing its image and economic profile of the city, particularly in 89 ADAM DROBNIAK, LUCJAN GOCZOŁ, MAGDALENA KOLKA, MATEUSZ SKOWROŃSKI science, culture, trade, transportation, attracting foreign investment, creating high-class floor space for service activity. Significant changes, which certainly influenced the dynamics of deve- lopment of Katowice, in recent years are: financial crisis from 2008 resulting in decline of the foreign investors’ interest in the city, rejection of the candidature of Chorzów (neighboring town) for EURO 2012, and also the rejection – though in the second round – the application of Katowice to the European Capital of Culture 2016. A detailed list of the changes taking place in the city and its surro- undings is presented in the table below.

This review proves that concepts tend to change over time from those based on economic dynamics to those based on collaborative commons and on governance. On the example of a few city centres situated in the Silesian Region an analysis was carried out of the concepts being presently applied and with the use of which projects Silesian cities strive to maintain and strengthen the dynamics and vitality of city centres. Keywords: Creative city, gentrification, participatory governance, sharing city, urban commons, urban regeneration, vitality and viability of inner city. JEL codes: R10, R50 Introduction The town centre has always remained a subject of particular care both on the part of local authorities, and the inhabitants. It is a place where the most important municipal facilities and institutions are situated. It is also a place characterised by certain historical and culture values. What is more, it is also a place in which are representative public spaces that form certain hallmarks and the main reference point for persons visiting the city.

  • New Gliwice Business and Education Centre, Poland
    Smart strategies for the transition in coal intensive regions Project No: 836819 Fact Sheet: “New Gliwice” Business and Education Centre April 2020 Description “New Gliwice” Business and Education Center GAPR Ltd. is a revitalized complex of buildings of the former Gliwice Coal Mine, located a short distance from the city center, near the Gliwice – Sośnica junction connecting the A1 and A4 motorways, Drogowa Trasa Średnicowa (the Intercity Road) and exit from the A4 motorway to Rybnicka Street. It is a unique place in which restored buildings of the former mine are adjacent to modern headquarters of IT companies and advanced technology enterprises from industries such as electrical engineering, power engineering, telecommunications, aviation. New Gliwice Business and Education Center is a unique place that owes its “life” to the “Gliwice” Coal Mine. Two beautifully renovated brick buildings growing out of the ground at Bojkowska Street, which attract the eye from a distance, are the remains of the Gliwice mine from the first decade of the 20th century. It is hard to believe that today’s vibrant New Gliwice is a place where coal was once mined, miners prepared for work, and foremen handed out tasks. In the twentieth century, an important point on the economic map of Gliwice was a coal mine, which extracted coal in the southern part of the city called Trynek. Until 1945, the plant was called “Gliwitzer Grube”, and after that date KWK “Gliwice”. Construction of this mining plant started in 1901 by combining 16 adjacent mining fields, which belonged to William Suermondt and a group of entrepreneurs from the Rhineland.

In the light of recent discoveries we can see the work between the XI and XVI centuries. The resort has not created much of the settlement clusters due to the characteristics of the deposits. Given the research of the recent years, we can see a new image of the territories on the border between Silesia and the Lesser Poland in the early Middle Ages. The archaeological research conducted in the past few years confi rm what the written sources conveyed about the local silver and lead mining. Origins of the silver used in minting production in the 12th, and maybe even 11th century, can be answered as follows: one of the sources of the Piasts silver was located near today’s Bytom, Będzin and Sławków. Keywords: Silver and lead mining and metalurgy, early medieval Poland The possibility of native origin of some silver in early – the fi rst region near Bytom, which includes the towns of medieval Poland was considered, it was never thought to be Bytom, Będzin and Tarnowskie Góry signifi cant.

Rynek 13, 40–098 Katowice Foreword Welcome to Katowice, the capital of Silesian Voivo- deship, where the heart of the agglomeration beats! Katowice is an extraordinary city. And an exceptional one. While preparing this guide, we have discovered it anew. Walking around the city centre, we could not help the feeling that the builders who erected the tenement houses with such a great attention to detail wanted to create a modern space which cannot lack wide paved streets with sidewalks. In a word, our ancestors built the city in which the next generation of Katowice inhabitants can live comfor- tably. The history disrupted their plans a little, but the city centre looks impressive anyway. Taking a closer look at the tenement houses, public buildings or squares, we can guess the intention of architects, who wanted to build on the banks of Rawa river a capital worthy of Upper Silesia . 4 Foreword Katowice is a city created from coal and steel, but also full of greenery and harmony, a city which over the years of transformation has grown into a mo- dern European metropolis. Only today, walking down the streets in the centre, we experience a multidimensional transformation. We watch the subsequent stages of changes made thanks to numerous investments, effectively refre- shing the visual landscape of the city.

Krzywoustego 2, 44-100 Gliwice, Poland ABSTRACT. Radiocarbon concentration measurements in tree rings from Upper Silesia indicate significantly lower 14C con- centration as compared to the concentrations occurring in “clean air” areas. This phenomenon is known as the Suess effect and is caused by contamination with inactive carbon that originates from fossil fuels combustion. This effect is observed in large urban and industrial areas. Samples for the measurements presented in the paper were collected in some of the largest cities in Upper Silesia: Gliwice, Ruda l¹ska, and Chorzów. The samples were annual tree rings (Populus nigra, Pinus silvestris) covering years 1965–1992 and the atmospheric CO2 collected weekly between December 1994 and December 1995. INTRODUCTION Increase of mining and combustion of fossil fuels like coal, petroleum, natural gas, etc.
