It provides both a theoretical and practical approach to the topic, offering a thorough introduction to urban brownfields and regeneration projects as well as an operational monitoring tool. Neighbourhoods in Transition begins with an overview of historic urban development and strategic areas in the hearts of towns to be developed. It then defines several key issues related to the topic, including urban brownfields, regeneration projects, and sustainability issues related to neighbourhood development. The second part of this book is focused on support tools, explaining the challenges faced, the steps involved in a regeneration process, and offering an operational monitoring tool. It applies the unique tool to case studies in three selected neighbourhoods and the outcomes of one case study are also presented and discussed, highlighting its benefits. The audience for this book will be both professional and academic. It will support researchers as an up-to-date reference book on urban brownfield regeneration projects, and also the work of architects, urban designers, urban planners and engineers involved in sustainability transitions of the built environment. 410 0$aUrban Book Series 606 $aUrban & municipal planning$2bicssc 606 $aDevelopment economics & emerging economies$2bicssc 606 $aEcological science, the Biosphere$2bicssc 606 $aEnvironmentally-friendly architecture & design$2bicssc 606 $aSociology$2bicssc 610 $aUrban Brownfields 610 $aUrban Renewal 610 $aSustainable Neighbourhoods 610 $aSustainability Transitions 610 $aMulticriteria Evaluation 610 $aMonitoring Tool 610 $aNeighbourhood Regeneration 610 $aPopulation Density 610 $aUrban Development 610 $aBrownfields and Sustainability 610 $aOpen Access 615 7$aUrban & municipal planning 615 7$aDevelopment economics & emerging economies 615 7$aEcological science, the Biosphere 615 7$aEnvironmentally-friendly architecture & design 615 7$aSociology 700 $aRey$b Emmanuel$01018001 701 $aLaprise$b Martine$01237537 701 $aLufkin$b Sophie$01063865 801 0$bAU-PeEL 801 1$bAU-PeEL 801 2$bAU-PeEL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910500587503321 996 $aNeighbourhoods in Transition$92872747 997 $aUNINA
