Since the 1990s, important regeneration processes have been carried out around urban waterfronts and canals. Urban waterways have undergone a transformation from industrial canals and navigation corridors towards focal points for revitalization and urban development. But, what new roles and values do the canals have as part of sustainable cities development? This article discusses the illustrative case of Regent’s Canal, London. The aim is to reveal the relationship and perception changes around Regent’s Canal environments through an evolution of its cityscape. Using historic evidence, policy documents, and fieldwork, the article identifies practices of regeneration of the canal’s banks in a reciprocal relationship between its capacity for place-making and the influence of the city on its transformation. Although Regent’s Canal constitutes a single, continuous element, it defines a changing and more diverse linear canalscape, as a result of the layering of various uses and values like an historical transport, environmental, scenic, and recreational corridor.

自 1990 年代以来,城市滨水区和运河周围开展了重要的再生过程。城市水道经历了从工业运河和航道到振兴和城市发展重点的转变。但是,作为可持续城市发展的一部分,运河有哪些新的作用和价值?本文讨论了伦敦摄政运河的说明性案例。目的是通过城市景观的演变揭示摄政运河环境周围的关系和感知变化。这篇文章利用历史证据、政策文件和实地考察,确定了运河两岸再生的实践,其场所营造能力与城市对其转型的影响之间存在相互关系。
