The vast amounts of waterfall made the city of Edessa, at the beginning of the 20th century, one of the largest industrial areas of the country. Today, the sparse remaining but also abandoned hydropower plants on the edge of the city, define mainly its character. However, they diverse idyllically from its natural qualities, due to the fact that their main purpose is to stand as idle shells without any integration to the urban lifestyle which is developed more and more. The presented thesis is influenced by the aforementioned points and mainly focuses on the matter of the management of these industrial reserves, while it states the various strategies around their re-usage, re-integration and re-operation. The main interest is around the industrial residues, the Kannavourgio, a former production unit of strings and ropes made out of cannabis, which still until today its mechanical equipment is remained on site. While discovering its important features, various objectives are placed for its “revival”, which will be the main aim of this thesis. Due to that, while analyzing the main features of the grounds and each part of the complex, new data are being collected for its main material (cannabis) and the current issues of the city are being investigated. In the meantime, while searching for any potential plans to re-use the current shells, a strategy to re-integrate in the urban area of the city is considered. Therefore, what emerges from the above is an idea of a multistory building (tower), which is located on the same level as the former production unit, bridging the height difference with the urban level. The purpose of this proposal is not about a development of another landmark in Edessa (waterfalls), but a landmark for the Kannavourgio itself, namely an attraction point. Together with the tower Kannavourgio, the current shells are being revived while considering new plans in order to renew them. The new shapes and ideas create a multi-structure full of activities, a new era for Kannavourgio which its main purpose is with no doubt the interpretation of its unique importance.
