Abstract

Whenever redevelopment projects are announced in our cities, they are often accompanied by compelling visuals: towers rising into the skyline, upgraded infrastructure and facilities, landscaped spaces and promises of rising property values. For developers and the authorities, redevelopment represents hope. Older buildings suffering from structural deterioration, outdated utilities and rising maintenance costs appear ready for transformation. Safer housing, improved facilities and a more vibrant urban environment are understandably attractive prospects.
