Abstract

In many cities of Western Europe and the Eastern USA, the central districts (outside the often renovated central business district) were built during the period of rapid city growth before 1914. These districts, once young and vigorous, have in recent years begun to exhibit the debility of old age. Housing has often deteriorated and, even if physically sound, is often unsuitable for modern living. Arrangements for access and parking are ill-suited to the age of the motor vehicle; new industries have preferred to settle in the suburbs where there is more space and better facilities. At the same time there has been an exodus of younger and more vigorous people to the suburbs.
