Brownfield Gentrification in Amsterdam: the Westergasfabriek conversion and the new Westerpark. BROWNFIELD GENTRIFICATION IN AMSTERDAM Brownfield sites are abandoned or underused urban areas, generally dating from the first phase of industrialisation. Industrial technologies changed, road transport displaced rail transport, and port zones moved seaward. These sites were then available for urban development projects, usually with negative effects - gentrification. This comment examines the conversion of a former coal-gas plant in Amsterdam, the Westergasfabriek, and the new park surrounding it. Last changes December 2004.
