Abstract

Poblenou?s intense development has been a result of the urban project 22@Barcelona(2000) which revitalized urban morphology and the area?s previous economic downturnduring period 2000-2013. This article analyzes how the industrial heritage remaining inPoblenou becomes a competitive element of the so-called city of knowledge, where civilsociety forced the public sector to introduce policies to protect this heritage for the constructionof the cultural city. The structural question is to analyze how the industrial heritagewas produced, how it was consumed, and which agents were involved in both processes.In addition, the focus of the paper is to study how heritage becomes a basic element of theprocess of economic revitalization, of symbolic projection and of urban compactness in theurban project Poblenou-22@Barcelona. Economic cluster policy in the area represents aninnovative strategy for the urban, economic and social transformation of the whole city ofBarcelona.
