Abstract

Epidemics led to far-reaching changes in European cities in earlier centuries. Using Paris and Hamburg as examples, this chapter shows how the outbreak of cholera in the nineteenth century had a lasting impact on the respective cityscape. Urban planning measures, such as newly created traffic infrastructure, the construction of water filtration and sewer systems, lower occupancy of residential spaces, and the construction of sanitary facilities, led to the upgrading of buildings while triggering displacement effects in inner cities.
