This paper is an operative proposal for the application of the sustainability concept to the revitalization and economic re-use of historical buildings. As the ultimate goal of the research project is to assess the potential economic re-use of historical buildings, this paper intends to define a set of indicators able to assess if a certain re-use project on a cultural heritage is sustainable or not. The research initially introduces the concept of sustainability, which was originally used in the field of environmental economics, and was later applied to social issues and urban development. The efforts to extend the concept of sustainability to cultural heritage has not found a definite operative application in the assessment of renovation and re-use projects of cultural assets. In Italy, the debate about the legal protection of cultural heritage has produced some guidelines to determine the requirements that interventions and re-use projects should have to be considered “sustainable” and the notion of cultural heritage has been gradually extended from individual buildings to the architectural heritage and the building stock, considered as a patrimony. Moreover, the traditional policies for the preservation of cultural heritage through the protection of historical monuments should be included in a broader strategy of sustainable use and management of the buildings: some preliminary studies show some evidence of a “good” economic re-use of the built heritage: the assets that have been used by the owners and/or stakeholders usually have a far greater likelihood of remaining viable than others preserved in the usual ‘top-down’ manner, because they are able to provide for the material maintenance of the asset.
