Sažetak
In this article the author gave a historical overview of the importance of the public space for the development of a city. She underlined some key examples of the successful public spaces, and what are the reasons for their success: accessibility, comfort, providing people with activities, and sociability in their core. After giving an overview of trends in urban development on the examples of New York, Bilbao, Barcelona, Providence, etc, Gligorijević concentrated on the city of Belgrade, asking if some of the lessons from other cities can be used in its’ context. Gligorijević started approaching the subject from the urban recycling method that she was involved in, in Belgrade of the nineties’ . Some of the projects were successfully implemented, but unfortunately, there is no overall strategy for urban recycling in Belgrade. The reason why there is no recycling strategy implementation comes from several reasons: transition, ownership problems, market driven development ; rigid regulations, lack of cultural policies ; lack of legal tools and mechanisms for (at least temporary) use of the existing structures ; and the fear of misuse or destruction. In conclusion one should stress that there is still a lot of work to be done in Belgrade in order to turn it into a true creative city.
