Under the term “urban renewal” we can find lots of different projects started by different entities (citizens, public authorities, developers) and with completely different visions. Some project will bring derelict industrial areas back to the city (as in Malley), some others will throw away most of the ancients inhabitants and look for completely new customers (as in the Flon), other projects will make little changes in order to improve the inhabitants’ lives without changing home values too much (as in the traffic calming measures along Avenue de France)…
Our speakers will review some examples of urban renewal,both in Switzerland and abroad, and propose a way to evaluate this kind of projects.
