Before the World War II the forest park was (built in ) used to serve for recreation, linked to former nursing home. After that, several decades without maintenance all the facilities and greenery became totally neglected and the forest park got abandoned. The forest park site is situated in attractive landscape setting surrounded by several residential districts with population of and newly developed large university campus nearby. Through the pilot project investment phase, the paths network, greenery renewal, the installation of equipment both for walking and fitness together with outlook tower reconstruction and water element renovation was realized.

3 3. Transnational added value Through the pilot project the application of the Joint Strategy was tested. The measures implemented and how the recommendations of the relevant aspects were followed are shown in the table 1 bellow. Moreover the pilot project in Novy Liskovec can serve as a model project and developed processes can be repeated in other locations. The transnational added value is belonging especially in experience and know how transfer in following fields: renewal of neigbourhoods with high density prefabricated blocks of flats methods of succesful public participation at planning and implementation sustainable model of green recreational areas management systematic approach to pedestrian environment improvement and accessibility local natural and cultural heritage interpretation Open urban spaces, their creation and renewals have to come up from whole Strategy of open spaces on the urban level, it means coming from wide to local method. Public participation in process of local space creation is more successful, when meeting is organized In place of space in open air, when people feel more they are involved, influencing, meaningful in participation procces. Table 1 : Characteristics Environmental aspect Description of measures: Renewal greenery (cutting down robinia trees), right maintenance started, water system - good balance and biodiversity Evaluation of influence on environment, another opportunity for visit nature beside Nature 2000 preservation Aspect of public participation Questionnaire, public meetings - initiated by municipality, but low response by citizens Meeting with citizens involved to design and work in forest park Gender aspect Security and social aspect Function of General retreat use for all Security aspect is difficult to carry no lightings, many trees, boarder of district, hilly terrain, Social aspect nice nature open space relax at high intensity housing area (concrete blocks) Accessibility aspect Most part of park is accessible without barriers, not many stairs, hilly terrain - difficult access for wheelchairs and older

4 Urban design aspect derelicted land was changed to useful and attractive open space attractiveness nature, walk paths, walk tour lines through park, water point, nice lookouts, lookout-tower, park furniture, orientation signage balance conception of space 4. Sustainability of the investment Attractiveness of nature at neighborhoods of intensive housing area is very important for citizens to their identification with place of living. People could use parks easy accessible, they feel less tension to travel far away from city to nature outside. More attractive public space is more used and this means more safe and less costs of maintenance. Sustainability as longterm vision of space, as value is very important in every step of urban design choice of materials, accessibility, etc. The management of the forestall park will be provided on regular base by the Novy Liskovec city district of Brno city 5. Foreseen impacts and leverage effect Our project of Forest Park Renewal discover historical heritage of our city district. Life is a story, we need to be involved into, joint or work on good story. Mostly housing areas are built without any connection with history or any good story. Our city district is situated in 95 % of prefabricated concrete block of flats, built up in 1980 s and 1990 s, the rest 5% is family houses from period Health care centre was built with nice park and brought many jobs and development of city district in that time. Growth and use of this area started to stagnate after World War II, specially park was without care and use. Structures, furniture and equipment of park were lost under overgrown vegetation. Some places in park became to use by young people drinking alcohol and damaging structures of park. Renewal of park is the story of restoring and bringing of former light, victory of the light over the darkness. We enjoy former path network, functionalism design of former look out tower, old trees and other former structures restored in new interpretation for refreshment and leisure of citizens.
