Abstract
The article presents contemporary city problems, like division of the city, infrastructural barriers, empty spaces, chaotic development, cuting-off areas, threatening the city image and functioning. These problems can be best observed in the areas in-between cities. One of the main questions for urban planners and architects seems thus to be: how to connect the city spaces instead of creating the barriers, how to create the areas “in-between” friendly, safe and attractive? The presented case study, related to the space, architecture and infrastructure between Gdansk and Sopot in Poland, illustrates the issues arising from the wrong spatial planning system and the lack of coherent policy between the neighbouring cities, causing spatial, functional and visual barriers. The article presents some ideas and guidelines helping to solve such problems. The set of integrated mitigation measures such as environmental policy, spatial and urban planning, metropolitan plans, SEA/EIA system and landscape architecture which are still not sufficiently implemented in practice in Poland, has been presented. They can be used to protect and enhance unique environment, cultural heritage and landscape and to create new values, like attractive public spaces in-between cities.
