Original Abstract

By the extent of its observation, Aldo Rossi`s notion of permanence, from his book "The Architecture of the City, shows a potential for its contemporary application. The paper describes the modern development of Letná using Rossi`s concept of permanence. Letná is an area with a well-documented evolution of plans, expectations and constructions. The paper shows how Rossi`s work enables the linking of individual stages of Letná`s development, being able to also describe it`s non physical artifacts. This case study analysis proves the usability of the applied terminology for further research on permanence in Czech urban structures.
