The quality of Amsterdam's inner city is deeply rooted in and associated with its historical setting. But despite all the pressure, the inner city has not developed into a theme park or an outdoor museum. Instead, it has remained a lively and vibrant part of the city, where people live, work, play and create. But what will be its future? In this volume, scientists offer their insights on the future of this historic inner city, following five themes: Public Administration (what is the role of the government), Social Sciences (to which groups is the urban heritage significant), Economics (how does monument ownership affect prices and rent), Preservation Techniques (how should maintenance and art historical qualifications be addressed), and Spatial and Urban Planning (what role do the monuments play in relation to the city). This book is the result of cooperation between the Amsterdam City of Monuments Foundation, the Amsterdam Study Centre for the Metropolitan Environment (AME), the University of Amsterdam, and the Historic Buildings Trust.
