碩士 / 朝陽科技大學 / 建築系建築及都市設計碩博士班 / 104 / The history of urban development has hitherto undergone several stages of transformation: from early foraging and nomadic tribes to villages based mainly on agriculture; and after the Industrial Revolution, waves of rural-urban migration set in, resulting in the formation of large metropolises. However, the role of public works plays in these new towns has become increasingly important, since after the housing problem has been solved, the needs of the public instantly become a prominent issue in communities, towns, and cities. Issues of public works, ranging from transportation, environmental protection, sanitation, culture and education, activity, parks and greenery, to tourism and recreation, are each closely bound up with local residents, involving the interests of the public.
All public works projects must at the initial planning stage go through such procedures as evaluation, deliberation, and planning. All these projects, it must be believed, are well-intentioned at the beginning in view of the fact that their construction only commences after careful deliberation by so many people; yet not all public works projects can successfully achieve their planned objectives, and bring the expected benefits to residents and the general public. The yet unresolved issue of “mosquito halls” that we have heard of and seen and that once hit the headlines in the past few years unmistakably echoes this view.
That being said, these “mosquito halls” are already a hard reality; we can choose not to do anything and ignore this waste of public resources we have made; or we can make partial adjustments either in their software or hardware, review and delve into the reasons for their underuse, look into the needs of local residents, and embody the genius loci of the places themselves so as to implant in them different functionalities, a construction method that does not require massive human, natural, and financial resources. As Professor Fu Chao-ching has said: “Architectural re-use allows us to capture the past value of architecture, utilize it, and convert it into a new vitality of the future.”
For all the many successful cases both within and without Taiwan,
many idle spaces have been used as venues for artistic creation. However,
the re-use of idle spaces ought to be more multi-faceted and put to creative uses, rather than limited solely to artistic ones. Thus, by “revitalizing” these idle spaces, they become, in the process of urban development, a turning point in urban redevelopment, which will be an issue deserving further reflection. This study takes as its case study the re-planning of the An-ping Recreation Pier of the An-ping Harbor National Historical Park, and attempts to create the differences in the re-use of idle space.
