The Rebirth of Paradise

A Systematic approach to anticipate the sea-level rise challenge and benefit from it to improve Alexandria’s habitable landscape

The Rebirth of Paradise

A Systematic approach to anticipate the sea-level rise challenge and benefit from it to improve Alexandria’s habitable landscape

Samenvatting

Urban planning for climate change is a complex topic for historical and large cities like Alexandria, which are also coping with economic and demographic pressures. In this project the design of water engineering is drawn into the horizon of the local population, by mapping several containment measures in relation to each other, and in relation to the larger whole of the urban area and to its distinctive districts in the center. The waterfront along the central bay will not be safeguarded by a single wall, like in the current situation, but by a layered dike system with a varied programming suiting the neighborhoods and local issues. The districts in the city operate with reservoirs and water systems, giving rise to greening of the city and redesign of public squares and roads. The districts along the southern canal, guiding the water from the Nile delta, will offer more space for flow and green developments for holding and detaining water.
