DESCRIPTION:This paper investigates the dynamic urban landscape of Haifa\, 
 Northern Israel\, renowned for its multicultural milieu\, as a lens to com
 prehend the intricate interplay of ethnonational dynamics. Focused on the 
 "Site and the Archive" course at the Faculty of Architecture and Town Plan
 ning\, it illustrates how geospatial technologies enrich humanities resear
 ch and methodological innovations\, particularly in elucidating historical
  narratives within contemporary urban settings. Structured around the them
 es of archive\, site\, and documentation\, the course employs interdiscipl
 inary approaches to investigate various typologies of urban structures\, i
 ncluding cinemas\, theaters\, hospitals\, and swimming pools. By integrati
 ng archival resources\, field observations\, and critical analysis\, stude
 nts engage in a holistic exploration of historical geographies\, bridging 
 disciplines such as historiography\, conservation\, and curation.\nFurther
 more\, the paper delineates the evolution from documentation to curatorial
  practice\, exemplified by the "Dinosaurs in the Streets" exhibition held 
 during a social Bauhaus festival in Hadar HaCarmel (2019). Drawing from co
 urse documentation\, this exhibition showcases the role of curation in pre
 senting diverse urban narratives\, underscored by the use of geospatial te
 chnologies to enrich spatial representations of heritage sites. Additional
 ly\, it examines the intrinsic spatial dimensions of heritage and its impa
 ct on local identity\, emphasizing the interconnectedness of heritage proc
 esses with the architectural fabric and cultural significance of urban lan
 dscapes. Through innovative mapping techniques and geospatial technologies
 \, the paper illuminates alternative heritage narratives and marginalized 
 histories embedded within the urban fabric\, offering a nuanced understand
 ing of urban heritage.\nAligned with the conference's thematic emphasis on
  "Spatial explorations of narratives\, literary and imaginary places\," th
 is paper provides practical insights into the application of spatial human
 ities in documenting and interpreting built heritage. It underscores the i
 mportance of interdisciplinary collaboration and innovative spatial analys
 is in advancing scholarly comprehension of historical geographies and cult
 ural landscapes.
