Urban renewal of the coastal area has regained importance in recent years. The main
problem with the city's coastal area is often the insufficient utilization of its potential. The
paper analyzes the process of urbanization and treatment of the waterfront through the
three historical periods: 1. traditional city, 2. during Modernism and 3. contemporary
urbanism. Belgrade is chosen as a case study because it is located on the banks of the two
rivers the Sava and the Danube, and throughout history, rivers had a significant role in
the urban development of the city. A polygon for the methodology of urban morphological
research for this paper was the contrast between the Old Belgrade and traditional city
core and the New Belgrade created on the principle of the modern movement in
architecture. The paper aims to research the relationship between the city and the river
waterfront by the method of compare spatial-temporal transformations and to reveal the
positive and negative elements of each period of urbanization. The result of the analysis
indicates a changed treatment of the river waterfront through the time - from the fortified
city isolated from the river to the gradual descent of the city center near the coast.
