Abstrakt: "Place" represents an important issue for human geographers. This paper deals with the process of urban change that has affected the historical centre of Bucharest over the course of the last decade. The urban regeneration process could transform the cultural meanings of the 'sense of the place' and contribute to a reinvention of an urban identity dimension. The aim of the paper is to contribute to the formulation of a critical perspective on urban regeneration, by highlighting the absence or otherness of cultural urban meanings in creating a place identity among the citizens during the (post)communist period. The authors advance and test the hypotheses that the historical importance of the city and the regeneration process in the sense of place construction are different among the residents.
