Abstract

Large scale demolition of council estates with residents in situ is a lengthy, complex and often controversial process. This report draws on evidence from two case studies to show the unintended negative consequences of large-scale demolition of council estates for tenants, leaseholders and local businesses. A third case study is introduced to weigh the costs and benefits of wholesale demolition against refurbishment
