The Architectural Heritage And Urban Planning Documentation - "''Architectural Heritage of Egypt Project''" is part of the Center for Documentation of Cultural and Natural Heritage (CULTNAT). It is a pilot project focused on the historical Downtown Cairo district.〔(CULTNAT; Cairo Project ) . accessed 5.25.2011〕 ==City context==
Founded in 640 A.D, Cairo, the capital of Egypt, has a history that extends over two millennia. Established since the Fatimid era, Islamic Medieval Cairo, which is the oldest quarters of the city, is now declared as part of the Cairo World Heritage Site.〔(Worldpress.org; "Rescuing Cairo's Lost Heritage;" by Rose Aslan; May 10, 2006 ) . (article first appeared in 'Islamica Magazine' - Issue 15) . accessed 5.25.2011〕 Yet, Cairo offers an array of architectural styles besides the various Islamic ones, that remain poorly documented. Until recently, no legislation protected these buildings from demolition and alterations, especially those less than a hundred years old, and maintenance laws were not respected.〔 The Egyptian government has some of the most stringent rent control laws in the developing world, which are socially responsible, but retarded architectural conservation efforts. Consequently, Cairo’s rental property owners reduced or nearly discontinued maintaining their buildings and the costs and responsibility fell upon the interest and ability of the tenants. Historic buildings in Cairo have suffered tremendously on average from a hundred years of neglect.〔
