Sara Gouda Dortmund, September 14, 2015 VI In memory of my father may his soul RIP AbdelHamid, Omar, Adam & Mom my beloved ones VII ABSTRACT The Egyptian neighborhoods of the 19th and early 20th century are heritage neighborhoods that have introduced new urban patterns, planning concepts and architectural styles that have a unique character and value worth preservation. These neighborhoods are currently facing different types of encroachments that form a pressure (P) on their state (S) resulting into negative impacts (I) adversely affecting its various qualities. These impacts (I) stimulate responses (R) seeking solutions for a better state (S1). In the late 90’s in Egypt there was a political interest in 19th and early 20th century neighborhoods which resulted in carrying out several studies on these neighborhoods also called recent heritage. Ten case studies were chosen in Cairo including Heliopolis. The study on Heliopolis came up with recommendations mainly focusing on heritage and urban oriented guidelines yet missing economic, social and environmental considerations. These aspects should be by now put into account when dealing with recent heritage neighborhoods. Sustainability as a broad concept encompasses these aspects. Adapting a sustainability approach for heritage neighborhood preservation, would enhance its performance by respecting the different qualities such as the urban, social, and economic ones beside the environmental and cultural. The research at hand tries to fill the knowledge gap in the field of sustainability within existing neighborhoods through the reconciliation between both sustainability and preservation in a way that suits the Egyptian context. The conceptual framework of the research at hand adopts the DPSIR-framework developed by European Environmental Agency and extends it into a DPSIR(1,2,3)-SS aiming to better identify the fragmented problem within the chosen case study of Heliopolis breaking it down into its different elements. The aim of this research focuses mainly on three issues; 1) to define the sustainable state (SS) criteria within the recent heritage neighborhoods, 2) to determine the state (S) of the case study of Heliopolis, and 3) to investigate and recommend suitable responses (R) aiming to enhance the state of the neighborhood. In order to do so, the research carries out a mixed-method approach based on a single case study using qualitative and quantitative data. In order to know the sustainable state (SS) qualities; a criteria-based catalogue was initially formed from existing literature, determining the important sustainability and preservation principles. This template forms the ground for a semi-structured expert interview based on a questionnaire which asks experts about the importance and the applicability of each criterion. After analyzing the interviews the research will be able to come up with a preliminary sustainable state (SS) catalogue that will be partially tested on Heliopolis assessing its state (S). Furthermore, possible intervention measures and strategies are proposed for the three responses (R) HHI, NOUH and the governmental decision makers within Heliopolis. The extensive analysis of the respondents’ answers has shown that the proposed localized sustainable state catalogue could be a legitimate approach for recent heritage neighborhoods. As a conclusion, this study has revealed that the HHI as a grassroots has a big role as a response (R) on protecting the heritage and spreading community awareness on the neighborhood scale. The NOUH is a nucleus for a much stronger entity that would be capable of firmly preserving the heritage neighborhoods with distinctive value. Environmental aspects are important for sustainable preservation in Egypt, but there are no enough instruments that encourage energy-efficient approaches in addition to the absence of a political readiness. The catalogue could serve as a guide for assessing heritage neighborhoods which can be utilized by relevant response-bodies. The asked experts agreed on importance of most of the sustainability criteria; however their preferences could vary as seen with NOUH and HHI. Finally, the research findings suggest recommendations addressing the different responses (R) towards a sustainable state for the Egyptian heritage neighborhoods. Keywords: 19th and early 20th century Egyptian neighborhoods, recent heritage, sustainable preservation, criteria-based sustainability, DPSIR-framework VIII ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Ägyptische Quartiere des 19. und frühen 20.

  • A New Path to Urban Rehabilitation in Cairo
    A New Path to Urban Rehabilitationin Cairo STEFANO BIANCA, DIRECTOR, HISTORIC CITIES SUPPORT PROGRAMME xposed as they are to ever increasing pressures of modern urban development and to creep- ing globalised uniformity, the historic cities of the Islamic world represent a rich cultural legacy worth preserving as a reference and source of inspiration for future generations. Un- like most of their Western counterparts, many of them managed to survive as authentic living cities, in spite of physical decline and economic depression. Their skilfully adorned monuments, whether made of stone, brick or timber, carry the imprint of timeless spiritual messages which still speak to present users. The cohesive patterns of their historic urban fabric embody meaningful modes of so- cial interaction and tangible environmental qualities, which transmit the experience of past gener- ations and are still able to shape and support contemporary community life; for the values inherent to their spatial configurations transcend short-lived changes and fashions. Such contextual values, sadly absent in most of our planned modern towns, constitute the cul- tural essence of historic cities. To use an analogy from literature, the qualitative rapport between single components has the power to transform a series of words into significant information or, even better, to make the difference between 'prose' and 'poetry'. This is why a city can become a collective work of art, or rather a living cultural experience, perpetuated by means of social rit- uals and local myths and tales. Cairo, in particular, is engraved in the cultural memory of Muslim visitors, readers, and listeners. Since medieval times, prominent travellers such as Nasir- i-Khosraw, Ibn Jubayr and Ibn Battuta have praised its splendours.' The endless flow of stories contained in The Thousandand One Nights features Cairo, together with Baghdad, as the most re- current backdrop for all sorts of experiences and adventures.

  • 2.5.2 Characteristics of Specific Land Use Categories (1) Commercial
    THE STRATEGIC URBAN DEVELOPMENT MASTER PLAN STUDY FOR A SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE GREATER CAIRO REGION IN THE ARAB REPUBLIC OF EGYPT Final Report (Volume 2) 2.5.2 Characteristics of Specific Land Use Categories (1) Commercial area Commercial areas in GCR can be classified into three basic types: (i) the CBD; (ii) the sub-center which includes the mixed use for commercial/business and residential use; and (iii) major shopping malls such the large size commercial facilities in relatively new urban areas. The CBD is located in downtown areas, where there are mixed-use buildings that were established long ago and partly accommodate shops and stores. The major sub-centers in the main agglomeration are Shobra, Abasia, Zamalek, Heliopolis, Nasr city, Maadi in Cairo governorate and Mohandeseen, Dokki, Giza in Giza governorate. The recent trend following the mid-1990’s can been seen in the construction of shopping malls which are commercial complexes comprising a movie theater, restaurants, retail shops, and sufficient parking space or a parking building attached. These suburban shopping malls are mainly located in Nasr city, Heliopolis city, Maadi, Shobra, and Giza. Source: JICA study team Figure 2.5.3 Location of Major Commercial Areas in main agglomeration (2) Industrial area The following map shows location of concentration of industrial areas in Study area. There are seven industrial areas in NUCs, five industrial areas under governorates, and two public free zones in the study area. The number of registered factories is 13,483 with a total area of 76,297 ha. Among those registered factories, 3 % of factories can be categorized as large-scale which have an investment cost of more than LE10 million, or more than 500 employees.
