Reinvigorating the region

23 January - 27 February 2010

An initiative by RIBA North East

North East Architectural Heritage

'Reinvigorating the Region' charts the development of architecture in the North East of England in response to economic challenges, social optimism and bold political decisions following the end of the Second World War. 'Reinvigorating the Region' is an interactive and public exhibition of models, archive footage and photography of the key buildings and projects which shaped the North East Region between 1945-1979. All of the projects in focus have formed part of the gallant ambitions of architects, engineers and public figures that sought to transform our whole region and shape the towns and cities across it.

'Reinvigorating the Region' forms part of the RIBA North East cultural outreach programme to extend Architecture to the general public.
