摘要：The main objective of this article consists of the analysis of brownfields in the municipality of Hunedoara, one of the most representative 20th-century industrial area in Romania. One typological classification of the decommissioned industrial areas has been elaborated, based on a few representative criteria (current functionality, degree of conservation, dimensions, type of property) in order to emphasize the suitability of brownfields regarding different rehabilitation and revitalization solutions. The GIS representation of existing data has showcased the spatial extent of these spaces. Applying a questionnaire to a sample of the population residing in the municipality (n=210) offered a perception of their desires regarding the destiny of brownfields. The main findings of the study have brought out a). the existence of large surfaces consisting of apparently vacant terrains in the context of increasing demand for spaces, b). the necessity of reinvesting former industrial platforms with other functions that correspond to the current needs of local communities, and c). punctiform initiatives regarding the valorization of some brownfields as creative spaces.
