3. Liveability
The ability of places to provide
for the needs of all generations
to learn from, benefit and help
each other throughout their lives
4. In an age of limits our inner cities can
continue to act as role models of low-carbon

Role of the Inner City
12. Community
• Potential for community gain
• Places for inter-cultural gathering
• Involvement of residents
• Importance of festivals, pop-up events
• Mixed-income neighbourhoods
17. Place-making
• Antithesis of Corbusian Ideal
• Need to reclaim the Street
• Importance of temporary uses
• Place as a social construct
• Potential of city-owned small sites
• Redesign balance between hard and soft modes of
travel
25. Conclusions
• Cities must constantly reinvent themselves
• Empowering communities crucial to success
• Place-making must be inclusive
• Mobility is too important to be left to engineers
• Heritage can be a springboard for regeneration
