Description The presence and management of abandonedindustrial sites (brownfields), which cover largeareas of land in the Crişul Repede Valley TerritorialPlanning Unit, is a great challenge. Of the manyabandoned industrial sites, the glass factory ofPădurea Neagră was selected in order to highlightthe peculiarities of a certain typology of territorialoccupation and use, which is representative forthe studied area. The whole abandoned area wasreserved entirely for the glass factory, which nowfinds itself in an advanced stage of degradation.As a peculiarity, one remarks that it is surroundedby the neighboring secondary homes, an areain full expansion. The industrial zone covers asignificant part of the built-up area of the village(21%), preventing the development of the territoryin question, while at the same time it creates anaesthetic disability for the small community whichhas only the perspective of tourism development.The revitalization of the community can beachieved through the rehabilitation/conversionof the industrial area, as a valid alternative tothe inevitable urban expansion, as it will have apositive impact on the development of tourism.There are many uses which could be gained as aresult of the rehabilitation, but the most appropriateuse would be a multifunctional center of creation,accompanied by a small glass museum and aworkshop that would produce small-scale traditionalglasswork, for tourism purposes.
