TY - JOUR TI - Water in the creation of revitalised urban areas. The case of King’s Cross Central AU - Nowacka-Rejzner, Urszula TI - Water in the creation of revitalised urban areas. The case of King’s Cross Central AB - The case study selected to illustrate the author’s considerations is the area in the northern part of London – the site of the next stage of the King’s Cross Central revitalisation project. The site has been selected mostly because of its location in the close vicinity of the historic centre of the city and because of its valuable cultural and natural assets. The author discusses the spatial transformations of the area focusing primarily on various options of using the qualities and properties of water and its relations with elements of built environment and greenery in shaping urban spaces of a new quality, yet preserving their identity.
