Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

2.1.3 Reading Material Urban Development Management

Course subject(s) 2. Urban Development Management

Reading Material 2.1

Now that you’ve seen the short introduction video of the Schieblock building and Schiekadeblok area, you are probably curious to learn more about what the area has to offer! We hope that the video helps you to visualize the area and its adaptation and redevelopment potential (building and site). However, we could not show the full story, because it’s a very diverse location. For instance, we did not discuss much of the development and planning context of the site, its functional situation, and the (potential) stakeholders involved in the redevelopment of the area.

To give you a complete image of the case, please study the case background reading material.

You can download the material from the link down below.
