Reimagining Abandoned Airfields Through Adaptive Reuse

Article Description

The interaction between the built environment and its surrounding ecosystem needs to be taken into account when reuse activities are planned. The bilateral influence of building assets on their surroundings creates a continuity of impacts that exists even when the building stock is replaced; the surrounding environment projects part of the prior impact to the new constructions. A special case of built environment reuse regards the redevelopment of former airports. Such major redevelopment projects require comprehensive environmental impact assessment studies, which necessitate significant resources for the collection of the required documentation and measured data. This work regards a methodology of strategic planning of sampling locations for the assessment of the environmental impact and pollution levels at former airports. It is developed and applied in the use-case of the former Hellenikon airport in Athens, but it can be used to other large-area redevelopment cases.
