Cities and their attractiveness are constantly changing. Former industrial centres have become neglected areas and these are being turned into desirable locations for living. The transformation of a periphery into a vibrant area is a long-term and complicated process that requires a clear vision, good planning and, last but not least, finance. All these topics will be disccussed during the fifth annual Brownfield Conference in Kladno.
