| 520 | _aCharts the influence of the public realm on urban regeneration from Victorian Britain to present day Lebanon. Discusses how public spaces reflect national values and also the re-emergence of civic pride in Britain including the government sustainable urban communities policy. Gives examples of increasing public interest in urban regeneration projects such as London's Trafalgar Square, Exhibition Road and Kensington High Street improvements. Presents a case study of the regeneration of Birmingham city centre. Suggests that new ideas about trust, pedestrian freedom and responsible behaviour between different users of urban space are now being aired in refreshing ways. Concludes that the new tools and delivery vehicles of urban regeneration are resulting in levels of urban investment comparable to Victorian times and are supporting civic renewal. | ||
