Place Based Transformations offers critical insights into the development of a community-based approach to sustainable urban regeneration by analysing the masterplans which underpin the processes. It focuses on four ‘bottom up’ case studies: Chicago, Vancouver, Birmingham and Edinburgh, which provide much needed insights into transformations that are currently underway, and reflect on their success in creating sustained urban development. These cases set a benchmark on how to conduct community-based studies, and will lead readers to a series of policy relevant statements on how best to capitalise on this understanding.
Place-Based Transformations demonstrates how a research level understanding of community transformation is inspiring practice whilst advancing the theoretically informed and institutionally grounded knowledge that professionals need to change the way they approach sustainable community development.
