This paper investigates the reuse experience of the Taichung Broadcasting Bureau, a historicalbuilding in central Taiwan, and presents it as an example for exploring the dilemmas and challenges of the issue of reuse. In addition, the solutions and implementation strategies of this case are alsoanalyzed. The study applied documentary and case analysis methods to discuss the public sector’spolicies, administrative measures, and results from the perspective of cultural heritage preservation, in order to provide a basis for the reuse of historic buildings. The reuse of the Broadcasting Bureau immediately faced the issue of local residents disagreeing with the reuse direction, and the Cultural Affairs Bureau thus initiated open dialogue for consensusbuilding. However, faced with a severe lack of funding for the project and a lack of manpower tomanage it, the government outsourced operations to private enterprises, so as to utilize their creativity and energy. Due to the bad location of the Broadcasting Bureau, the authorities linked this place tocultural scenic spots by planning periodic cultural walking routes, and a series of urban pedestrianspace transformations were completed under a plan called New Urban and Rural Appearance – Participatory Design of Shuangshi Cultural Watershed, which reconstructs the historic and culturalenvironment at the water source. To conclude, reuse of the Broadcasting Bureau features focuses on the construction of a historic space that is converted into an exhibition and performance space. This benefit of reuse transforms into a force for the sustainable operation of cultural heritage, and extends the concept of reuse to include outdoor space and landscapes. The preservation and reuse process of the Taichung BroadcastingBureau is a dialogue between history, the urban environment and communities, and by revitalizingthe cultural heritage and transforming the space, the process finally achieved not only the goal ofurban historical space preservation but also that of reuse.Based on the Bureau’s two experiences ofoutsourcing projects, we have to review whether it is appropriate to have private enterprises manage the reuse of historic buildings as a for-profit premise. Also, it is important to reconsider the purposeand public interest of Cultural Heritage.
