Northern soul culture, creativity and quality of place in Newcastle and Gateshead - London RICS 2003

Attempts to explain what creates a buzz in a city like Newcastle and how it can be retained, without overheating or losing momentum. Newcastle is a city that has managed to survive the loss of its tradition industries, particularly the coal industry, to remain a thriving and bustling metropolis. The core argument is that the buzz comes from the spirit or soul of a place. It is this indefinable x-factor which gives a city its character and makes it a special place to live in or visit.
