Urban Decay & Regeneration

Urban decay refers to the decline of a city or urban area due to factors like economic downturns, population decline, or neglect, leading to abandoned buildings and deteriorating infrastructure. This can create areas that are unsafe and unattractive, affecting residents and local economies. Urban regeneration, on the other hand, involves revitalizing these decayed areas through investment, redevelopment, and community engagement. This process aims to improve living conditions, attract businesses, and enhance the overall appeal of the area, turning once-neglected spaces into vibrant, thriving neighborhoods that benefit residents and the economy alike.
