Many projects related to transport, storage, or freight forwarding have been completed in post-industrial areas. The issue of urban space recycling, besides the basic question of adapting the area to a new function, requires a particular reference to the cultural heritage of the place, including its material legacy, which is sometimes difficult to preserve and expose. This article presents characteristic examples of urban recycling in particular districts of New York where the new function of a city park has been overlaid on unused areas, while preserving their characteristic environmental circumstances and cultural identities.}, doi = {10.4467/2353737XCT.18.142.9090}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/modern-park-as-a-result-of-urban-space-recycling-a-review-of-new-york-citys-developments} }
