ABSTRACT
This text presents the outcomes of the Continuity in Cities workshop, which took place at Poznań University of Technology, with a primary focus on the sustainable adaptive reuse of the Old Gasworks in 2023. The workshop aimed to generate innovative ideas and strategies for transforming this closed industrial heritage site into a vibrant public space. With a strong emphasis on collaboration and excel-lence in design, the workshop presented an opportunity to explore the immense potential of the site. One of the key aspects of the project was the development of strategies to address the challenges posed by the site's closure. The students proposed solutions such as increasing greenery, implementing sus-tainable technologies, demolishing barriers, and fostering connectivity with the university campus. These strategies aimed to create a revitalized and inclusive space that would benefit the city and its residents. The Continuity in Cities workshop showcased exceptional design, demonstrating our ability to maximize the potential of the Old Gasworks. This successful event highlighted the significance of historical contexts in sustainable architecture and fostered a collaborative pursuit of excellence.
