The Role of Brownfield Development in Sustainable Urban Regeneration
Journal of Sustainable Development Studies(2013)
Abstract
The process of industrial revolution and population growth brought such problems as transport congestion, pollution and environmental degradation which led to rapid immigration of residents and shutting down industrial areas. The outcome was a large number of remained sites with vacant or underused buildings and infrastructures in low-demand markets. Hence, Industrial zones which have been formerly deemed as a vital part of human daily lives turned into a formidable obstacle within the cities. Brownfield lands are, nowadays, recognized as a problematic element in large number of countries, as it is assumed to cause gradual land decline by means of environmental, physical, social and economic negative effects. In spite of all problems these urban sites may make, over the past 30”40 years, Brownfields have been regarded as a precious opportunity for urban developers in order to bring a new value into a poor- quality lands and create new sets of behavior in the declined urban communities.
