Abstract
Modern heritage in Lebanon has been one of the many victims of the Lebanese Civil War. Among the sites in question is the Rachid Karami International Fairground in Tripoli, Lebanon. This site was designed in the 1960s by Oscar Niemeyer, one of the world’s most renown modern architects. Although the site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in 2023, this modern heritage was listed under UNESCO’s “List of World Heritage in Danger”. The site currently suffers from severe neglect and damage that have resulted in the collapse of parts of some structures, as well as interventions that have destroyed the site’s integrity as modern heritage.
The following thesis thus aims to develop a conservation and adaptive reuse plan for this endangered modern heritage
