Because the architect has a more intimate knowledge than others of the city’s physical structures and their processes of coming into the being, it falls to the architect to act in the void left by the disruption or collapse of institutional authority. The architect of the city’s reconstruction initiates new building projects by putting proposals before the others in the city. Out of the dialogue and public debate provoked by them will come reconstructions that serve the public’s interests and those of the architect as well

In this turbulent context, attention is mostly directed towards prominent construction interventions.
