Regeneration of areas, previously used by industry, is a social and spatial necessity. Current efforts to redevelop industrial wastelands and abandoned buildings raises broader views than just architectural and construction issues. In an urbanizing world that is increasingly driven by a stressed free market, how does the concept of industrial heritage adaptive reusing relate to contemporary sustainable city and its public space? How industrial areas can be turned into cultural districts? This contribution is trying to find the answers for these questions and highlight opportunities in this field in Czech Republic. Some examples of alternative uses of industrial architecture and their potentials for the future development as centers for art and culture are discussed.
