Abstract

above-mentioned monograph and to look into the issue of high-rise build-up in Lithuania and in the world. The EU Commission has been pooling professionals of different fields for the project of the construction of the EU Chamber and organized regular discussions on a topical problem "Vision of European cities". It has frequently been emphasized "[...] priorities in promotion of cities identity, to preserve historical and cultural heritage" and has been proudly pointed out that "European cities differ from American, Australian and African ones due to their historic architecture, old-town complexes and variety". The high-rise build-up in the structure of cities is neither a good nor a bad phenomenon; everything depends on the value scale in a certain place. High-rise building development is meant to protect the old core of the city in historical cities from build-up transformations, i.e. increasing density of the build-up structure. This view raises a task and states a problem - how to preserve the unique silhouettes of cities of the world from unifaction?.
