Whole neighbourhoods are dis- appearing almost overnight. Well known landmarks vanish. Massive new buildings and roads rise up to dominate the district. Much of this is the result of slum clearance and redevelopment programmes. But what makes an area a slum, and who decides that it is one? How can the communities affected best make their voices heard? This book aims to Change the street: identifying the problems and suggesting action, based on the success of people who have managed to make their streets attractive and pleasant to live in, looking after the buildings, planting trees and flowers-most of all making them 'streets for people'.
