Clossick, Jane and Brearley, Mark (2020) Promoting industry in Brussels: a good city has industry. London Metropolitan University, School of Art, Architecture & Design, London (UK).
This document was published by London Metropolitan University as part of the School of Art, Architecture & Design series: AAD Practice Research Portfolios. Brussels, like London, is squeezed for land with limited space for new development. Since 2013, Mark Brearley, Jane Clossick and colleagues at AAD Cities, have situated research in Brussels, exploring ways to promote integration of industrial activities into the urban fabric. Brussels, like London, is squeezed for land with limited space for new development. This portfolio collates multiple strands of action, exploring questions, methods and insights revealed through this process. The significance of this research lies in the potential loss of industry in the nucleus of the urban fabric in Brussels (as in London). This would have irreversible impact on the economy and ripple effect on functioning of cities, through the decentralisation of livelihoods, affecting social structures in cities. The research made visible this possible degradation, and explored opportunities for altering the course through effecting policy change.
