«Un jardin d’îlot, tout le monde il en a un dernière chez lui» [...] [Le] reportage [...] attire l'attention sur les menaces pesant sur les jardins d’îlot. Face à leur disparition de plus en plus fréquente souvent pour des raisons de rentabilité immobilière, la Région bruxelloise s’est dotée en 1979 d’outils de protection comme le Plan de secteur ou les Commissions de Concertation, appelant donc les habitants à être vigilants et actifs. Outre leur valeur écologique, les jardins d’îlot sont, en effet, au cœur de la structuration urbaine de bien des quartiers bruxellois. Ils offrent un agréable cadre de vie et, parfois, des possibilités inattendues de rencontres, de jeux, de promenades ou repos. 2, record 3, French, - jardin%20d%26rsquo%3B%C3%AElot

Title l of the 1949 Housing Act authorized federal grants and loans to localities for slum clearance and urban redevelopment, under the condition that there be "a feasible method for the temporary relocation of families displaced from the project area and the permanent provision of decent dwellings at prices and rents within the financial means of such families." Ostensibly, slum clearance was done to promote the building of low and moderate income housing. However, private developers were largely uninterested in inner-city residential redevelopment when vacant land was readily available at the periphery. The first lesson of urban renewal was clearly taught, if not learned: land clearance does not create demand. Instead, public housing was developed in large scale residential "projects" in urban renewal district. 3, record 4, English, - urban%20redevelopment

En tant que composé d’espaces ouverts, ou extérieurs, l’espace public s’oppose, au sein du domaine public, aux édifices publics. Mais il comporte aussi bien des espaces minéraux (rues, places, boulevards, passages couverts) que des espaces verts (parcs, jardins publics, squares, cimetières...) ou des espaces plantés (mails, cours...).

Plan to revamp town over 10 years. Tackling crime and anti-social behaviour and also promoting the River Severn as a tourist attraction are among the key aims to transform Shrewsbury town centre over the next 10 years. Greater management of the town's evening economy and the development of a wide range of leisure activities are also high on the list of objectives set out by the borough council. The points are made in the final draft of a blueprint aimed at shaping the future of the town. The strategy, prepared by Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council, aims to improve the economic, social, environmental and community well-being of the area and have a direct impact on everyone living in Shrewsbury and Atcham. 3, record 14, English, - revamp%20town
