The Georgian capital awakens, so to speak, with a new face every morning. Ambitious construction projects and large-scale foreign investments are continually transforming Tbilisi's cityscape. This unstoppable development is leading to an ongoing debate among residents: What should be preserved and what should be subject to change? What is for sale and what is public property? What do we want to remember, and what do we draw from?
Urban planners, architects, and activists share what the changes mean for them and for life in this fascinating city in the Caucasus. The diverse and impressively illustrated contributions directly document the diverse changes between clinging to the past and embarking on a new era.
