A comparative look at the building regulations of Vienna and Berlin in the 19th and early 20th centuries will for the first time derive site-specific Viennese characteristics from the general developments in architecture, legislation, building administration and urban planning. The workshop will provide an international and transdisciplinary contextualization in order to better understand the connections between organized urban growth in the context of metropolitan development via its regulatory side.
