| Article Name : | | | THE SLUM ERADICATION URBAN RENEWAL: A CRITICAL STUDY | | Author Name : | | | SANTOSHKUMAR S. SHEELVANT AND VASUDEV SEDAM H. | | Publisher : | | | Ashok Yakkaldevi | | Article Series No. : | | | GRT-2508 | | Article URL : | |  | Author Profile View PDF In browser | | Abstract : | | | The concept of renewal and reconstruction has gained importance because of expanding slums and blighted areas in most cities which help in haphazard growth of built-up areas. Urban renewal is intended to describe the process of dealing with a large area on a whole and it includes preservation, rehabilitation of property or environment and redevelopment. The process gradually changes the character of the area to fit in with the needs of contemporary society. It is distinguished from the radical changes of redevelopment and from the status quo of preservation and rehabilitation. It is in fact, an amalgam of all the processes which act on a town, or a portion of it and which are continual moulding and changing its character and appearance. | | Keywords : | | |
