街角游擊戰─水泥叢林下的老屋再生新趨勢

Abstract

在都市更新爭議不斷的台灣社會，關於城市空間的另一種想像，已然成形。表現於老房子上，注入新機能；連結歸屬感，一點一滴、持續累積的老屋再生力量，已隱隱鬆動僵化的更新思維──保存亦是一種發展的價值觀，是老房子傳授給人們最寶貴的一課。 本報導借用《詩經》旨趣，將二○一○年起，較具影響力的老屋再生案例分門別類，包括隱喻民間力量的「風：老屋欣力」；隱喻官方介入的「雅：URS 127和青田七六」；及隱喻家族故事的「頌：莊協發港町文史講亭」等。逐一詳述其脈絡後，發現經費問題、公共性的思辨和社區互動，是所有案例共同面臨的挑戰。 理想上，推動老屋再生時，屋主、經營者和政府之間，應該共同合作或監督，求取動態的平衡；但現實上，三方的力量總是互有消長，因而衍生出各種困境。報導最後，綜觀來看這波新趨勢，從降低經營成本、擴大公共監督和鼓勵企業認養的角度，提出三大突圍戰略。

Another kind of imagination upon urban space has been shaped in Taiwan society, where the dispute over urban renewal never stops. The rigid thinking of urban renewal is gradually loosened. Presenting in ancient houses, infusion new function in them, to link up one’s sense of belonging in them, it is the most valuable lesson those ancient houses teach us, that conservation is one kind of active sense of values. Borrowing from the purport of “The Classic of Poetry”, this report sorts out the cases of revitalization of ancient houses by three categories which are “trend,” “nobility” and “praise.” “Trend” represents civil power and is the metaphor of Foundation Historic City Conservation and Regeneration. “ Nobility” means official policy, is the metaphor of URS127 and Ching-tien76 cases. “Praise” is clan ballad, and in this report, is the metaphor of Chuang Xie-fa harbor cultural and historical classroom. The source of funds, identifying of publicity and the interaction with community is found the challenge in common after narrating the whole course of each case. Ideally, co-ordination or supervision mechanism is supposed to be established among house-owner, house-operator and authorities concerned. When promoting old house regeneration, we should seek to strike a dynamic balance among the above three. However, in reality, power of each party have mutually growth and decline, and then give rise to all kind of predicament. At the last part of the report, we try to propose three strategies for breaking through, in the aspects of lowering operating cost, expand public supervision and encourage enterprise donation.
