reclaiming the city
Reclaiming the city refers to efforts to restore, revitalize, or reassert control over urban areas that may have been neglected, abandoned, or adversely affected by issues such as crime, economic decline, or social challenges. It involves community-led initiatives, policy changes, or strategic planning aimed at improving safety, infrastructure, and sense of ownership among residents. The goal is to transform the city into a more vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable place where residents feel secure and connected, effectively turning around environments that have been underserved or compromised.
