other industries and that was economically totally depressed when those industries left and there was high unemployment. from a social environmental and economic point of view they hadn't really considered it . today bilbao serves as a global example for the targeted regeneration of cities through investment in spectacular architecture as well as infrastructure tourists create jobs and result in greater wealth for residents the phenomenon has become known as the bilbao effect. for its twentieth anniversary in october the museum building was used as a projection screen by light artists displaying symbols of an industrial past and a bright future. david leavitt's had in the report about this build effect guessing that around the world cities have tried to recreate it how they managed to do this successfully no one has really managed to completely imitate the bilbao effect there certainly are lots of cultural institutions in unlikely places

that are would be bilbao so they don't have the same draw they're not as instagram of all there are people from around the world trying to go there now one city that you have heard of that could become the next bilbao in a different way it's a city you haven't heard of for culture though it's abu dhabi and this week. is opening to the public actually this weekend it's designed by renowned architect . of course abu dhabi isn't bilbao on hard times it's a city with lots of cash but you know who knows what'll happen when the oil runs out and so they're looking to become a city that's rich culturally and the way that. became one and there's a lot more plans there as well a national museum by norman foster. plan to go up in cooperation with the british museum there's even the plans for a performing arts center by the way to. check that out and yes a new guggenheim is planned there by frank gehry looks quite

a lot like the one in bilbao now all of these plans that i'm mentioning have actually been put on hold there's no real date set for them so it's sort of a big question mark but if they pull it off. he could display the bilbao effect on an even grander scale in the middle east so that's what it's something very special look at i'm guessing this more of the web site there is indeed. culture we've got plenty on go about on the new movie as well david miscavige thank you so much and that's it your date. will have more for you at the top of the hour i will get to.
