“…The Menda railway line, from the opening-prosperity-decline, after a century of vicissitudes, witnessed the development of mining culture in the western mountains of Mentougou, but also witnessed the development of the villages gathered along the railroad. Railroad heritage protection and development first need a strategic goal [4]. The "One Line and Four Mines" project will be planned around the themes of natural ecology, industrial civilization, traditional culture and rural revitalization to create a railroad sightseeing line for both commuting and suburban tourism.…”

In order to realize the goal of “building up mobile homestays among lucid waters and lush mountains”, the Mentougou District of Beijing wants to plan the surrounding area with the theme of “One Line and Four Mines” in the west of Beijing. In order to comply with the requirement of “one station, one scene”, 12 railway stations need to be planned and developed in different directions, So the station development needs to be evaluated and analyzed first. In this study, the entropy weight method and the TOPSIS (technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution) method are comprehensively used to establish indicators from five aspects: natural potential, mining heritage potential, social potential, traffic potential and tourism potential, and to evaluate the development decision of 12 railway stations of the Menda Railway. The tourism development direction and development importance of abandoned railway stations are decided from the horizontal and vertical dimensions, and the results of the TOPSIS model are expanded beyond the numerical value itself. On this basis, this study also combined with the existing situation of each site, and gave suggestions on the development planning of each site.

“…During the 20th century, over 30 normative manuals and guidelines for preserving and maintaining cultural heritage have been provided by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) [1]. Since the expansion of its spectrum, after simply concentrating on monuments and historic centers to a more cultural heritage orientation in the early 21st century, the horizon of cultural heritage was applied to urban areas and communities as living heritages [1][2][3]. Broadening the term "heritage" has contributed to a comprehensive qualitative view of urban heritage that incorporates the values of the urban landscape [3,4].…”

Urban Heritage Facility Management: A Scoping Review

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This review examines current discussions from the cross-section study between urban heritage conservation and urban facility management fields in the academic literature from 2011–2020. The purpose is to identify the gaps within the examined papers to reveal the challenges and opportunities in the combined fields using the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO)’s recommendation of the historic urban landscape (HUL) approach. The scoping review procedure was followed. The six critical steps and four supporting tools of the HUL approach were used to analyze the examined papers. Most aspects of urban heritage management within the body of literature were directly related to urban-scale facility management. The potential usage of building information modelling became one of the most discussed technological aspects. The expansion of the public–private partnership model into the public–private–people partnership is considered as a new potential business model. At the same time, the adaptive reuse approach is deemed to be the most sustainable method of managing heritage areas. This scoping review identified the financial tools as the most under-researched urban heritage facility management component. Therefore, it needs to be endorsed among the scientific communities to improve the knowledge and provide operable guidelines for the authorities and practitioners in the urban heritage field.

“…Jerczyński 2015). The issue of preserving objects of material culture connected to the history of the railway is a global point of interest (Burman 1997;Coulls 1999;Tiry 1999;Halsall 2001;Ito and Chiba 2001;Kido 2005;Köşgeroğlu 2005;Erkan 2012;Gaczkowska 2012;Krzysztofik et al 2014;Stevanović and Stevanović 2014;Taylor and Landorf 2015).…”

“…However, considerations about protection and renovation of railway heritage emerge most often when the buildings in question are in a very poor condition, or even when already assigned for demolition (Erkan 2012). Taylor and Landorf (2015) argue that the significance of railway stations as material culture stems from two fundamental values: the urban-architectural and the socio-economic (Biddle and Nock 1983;Burman 1997; cf. Ahlfeldt and Maennig 2010), both of which are intricately interweaved and not always fully understood.…”

This paper deals with the issue of former border railway stations (FBRSs) in Poland in the context of their problematic heritage. Since the creation of those borders coincided with the development of the railway network in the 19th century, the FBRSs, now deprived of their past function, remain scattered throughout the landscape as confusing components of a troubled history in an even more confusing contemporaneity. This article assiduously analyses the FBRSs in their capacity as offensive hallmarks vested in inoffensive elements of technical culture, often with high aesthetic value. This is done by departing from a number of analytical lenses: unwanted history, competitive heritage, utility vs. economy, politics and money, and the 'here and now' policy. These competing perspectives reveal the intricacy of heritagisation, especially in times of greater ease of obtaining monetary funds aimed at revitalisation: what to revitalise, why and how?
