Managing Complex Historic Cities: The Cambridge Historic Core Appraisal
The way we use and think about our historic cities is changing. Their importance has been illustrated in the recent Urban White Paper.1 They are places of great opportunity, yet issues such as traffic and other congestion can threaten to undermine the very things that attract people in the first place. The pressures manifest on central Cambridge are in some ways typical of other historic cities, yet in other respects the city is unique. This paper outlines the current and prospective development scenarios around the city. It then looks briefly at different structures for analysing historic areas and describes the methodology currently being used to manage the historic core of Cambridge.
