Old buildings may be abandoned not only because of under-use of urban land resources, but also the negative asset of city landscape. How to revitalize the abandoned buildings to improve landscape and environmental quality is thus a critical governance issues for all big cities in the world. The traditional solution for the problem of landscape pollution caused by abandoned buildings is urban renewal. Urban renewal is effective but is too difficult to promote, and its effects on landscape pollution may take many years. Recently, the so-called temporary urbanism began to be noticed and widely adopted. More and more cities adopt the temporary urbanism as an approach to promote urban regeneration. Although temporary use of abandoned spaces is getting popular in practice, theoretical evaluation of implementation experiences is very limited. In an extensive review of the literature, this study analyzed both the theoretical content and trend of temporary use of abandoned buildings. Furthermore, the incentive program of ''Encouraging Demolition of Abandoned Buildings for Temporary Open Spaces'' implemented during 2008-2010 in Taipei city is targeted for policy evaluation. The results of the literature review showed that temporary use is indeed an efficient shortterm approach to eliminate the ugly landscape of abandoned buildings. Based on willingness to pay, the estimated value of temporary open space created much more value than total estimated value for FAR offered. From the viewpoint of long-term urban development, the temporary use of abandoned space can also promote urban regeneration indirectly |
