4. Conclusions The fundamentals issues for the creation of an array of assessment of existing buildings, in this case with specific characteristics and a net asset value and cultural value, consist of: • The fact that these areas constitute part of the urban fabric with little flexibility or low changeability, defined by a consolidated urban mesh; • The existence of a network of mobility defined and shaped by a constrained urban environment, usually with distinct patterns of occupation; • The high value patrimonial and cultural heritage; • The representation of the heritage of a people with values and customs that make up its story; • The tourism potential of these areas and the possibility of forming an economic powerhouse, with a significant representation in the productive fabric; • The feasibility of becoming a nerve center for employment and business opportunities. In this sense, the system draws a set of lines that clarify the actors involved in the various stages of the life cycle of the building. The model has been designed considering, as starting point, the existence of a building, in this sense there is an initial performance and the model assesses the improvements implemented to address this performance. The assessment is always carried out in relative terms, working on a percentage basis compared to the existing. There has been a great effort to implement sustainable systems and methodologies; however, there is a need to change the current context of construction, to guide decision-makers and active agents in the process of design and construction. This model includes this component and helps to clarify the best strategies. The score of the criteria allows the setting of a final rating that promotes comparability between some rehabilitation activities, reflecting the improvement implemented. Some of the criteria are presented as urban management; they must be analyzed attending to local policies and highlights the need for joint efforts to achieve the desired outcomes. There are several initiatives aimed at building sustainable level of new buildings, or even intervention in the built environment, where the historical areas consist of critical areas. These areas have been marginalized, even in regulatory terms, and due to lack of existing conditions and difficulties of intervention, have been exonerated of responsibilities about their performance. This part of the built heritage should take their part in environmental responsibility and alternatives must be found to regulate their effectiveness and measure their impact. The complexity of the intervention should not cause an "urban autism" and these areas must communicate and relate to the town, as well as must respond adequately to the environment. 217
