Multicriteria assessment of housing estates to provide urban renewal guidelines: a case study
Journal Title: Architectus - Year 2017, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
The author investigates the role of user opinion surveys in the process of planning revitalization measures for housing estates. The analysis is illustrated by a case study of two housing estates located in Lubartów, south-eastern Poland. The estates are managed by the same housing cooperative. Having assessed the condition of built assets and their changes between October–November of 2010 on the basis of documents in possession of the municipality and the estate manager, as well as direct observation and inspection, the author conducted interviews with the residents. Such interdisciplinary surveys (IS) first enable the planner to understand what kind of material changes to the living environment are considered important by the direct users. Second, they help raise the residents’ interest and win their support in the planned rehabilitation. Third, they are to make the estate manager aware that this form of communication with the residents is possible, likely to provide useful guidelines for planning improvement measures and to collect feedback after improvements have been conducted.
