AB  - In Lisbon’s East area, Marvila-Beato parishes are starting a regeneration process based on
creative, technological and cultural activities, with the goal of new users' dynamics.
Mainly rural parishes until the XIX century at Lisbon city limits, dedicated to agricultural activities
within noble farms and religious convents properties, these areas were then developed as strong
industrial sites. New railway and harbor infrastructures enabling those uses attracted new
workers population but also fragmented former land patterns and daily life. Through time, as
industries became obsolete, so did urban fabrics. At the end of the XX century, the majority of
the population was relocated in social housing projects nearby, the remnant got old while remaining buildings are decaying or in ruins.
The urban fabric is still a patchwork of all these dynamics, no single clear structure ties different units and no valid investments are made on public space design and maintenance. Until recently these territories were apart from the overall city, with physical isolation and social segregation
problems, although nearby a new waterfront lifestyle grew in new housing quarters, attracting
more than 25.000 inhabitants in the last 20 years after EXPO' 98 project.
Announced urban financing actions and stakeholders are now engaged in a transformation
process that may inverse deficits but also become exclusive rather than inclusive. How can Public Space have an active role including everyone in the process of change?
This paper will showcase and analyze students work developed at Athens program workshop, in
the scope of Public Space’s Service System research project, that focused on mapping
stakeholders’ needs, public space services, and systems connections, answering to present and
future scenarios. We will discuss assessment concepts, the role of a public space system, service and actors in the scope of a regeneration process and how to encounter converging interests and values potential, in future actions.
