One
of the RiverLinks project final goals is to promote the exchange of information
between European cities that developed in different geographical contexts.
For this reason, each Partner has carried out a research on European cities
that are interested in solving problems of the river-city relationship
in the urban scope.
The contribution from Florence is based on the study of cases concerned
with Rome, Padua, Turin and Lisboa:

"The
Tiber reclamation programme, begun in the new Roman Land Use Plan,
is a long process, consisting of many diffused, strategic interventions
which the Municipal Administration must gradually add to the urban
redesign and transform the 'distance' which has evolved between
river and city into a new resource for the dynamics of the city."

"The
projects most frequently implemented deal with the reclamation and
development of combinations of "walls/open-spaces/waterways"
within the old city. Padua's system of open spaces is linked to
the fortifications which surround the city, mostly from the sixteenth
century and well preserved, as well as to the waterways, rivers
and canals.
One of the objectives of the project was how to restore this system.
It gave rise to the idea of the Walls and Waterways Park following
the river network, the canals and the city walls."

"Turin
City of Water consists of a plan of action, which aims to achieve
quality objectives in two different levels of intervention: urban
and regional.
On the urban level, the main objective consists of the creation
of a continuous system of river parks, for an overall development
of about 75 km. The Torinese banks of the four rivers (Po, Sangone,
Dora Riparia, Stura) are connected by a network of leisure and educational
footpaths and cycle tracks and become the basis of a new urban system
of open space."

"This
project is the result of a 1994 international competition won by
Hargreaves Associates Landscape Architecture Studio of San Francisco,
part of the Sector Plan for the 1998 Expo. Lisbon
The park was one of the strategic interventions promoted by the
municipality for urban and environmental restoration and the reorganisation
of the metropolitan system. It covers an area of approximately ninety
two hectares of previously industrial, neglected land and is situated
between the confluence of two rivers which give it its name, the
Tejo and the Trancão. The site is significantly transformed
but the designer insisted on preserving links with the past using
symbolic connotations in form and function."
