WATERFRONT REDEVELOPMENT AND URBANIZATION
interested in the residential projects which happened around these projects, leading to
gentrification and class stratification. However, waterfront regeneration programs completely
changed the land structure and impact the physical environment of the area around.
However, it is also necessary to distinguish between waterfronts as abstract spaces on one
hand and geographic territory on the other. Society rapidly undergoing the process of
urbanization and consequential changes. The dynamics of change were fettering the territorial
significances the recognition of the urbanized spaces and society stretches beyond the location
(Airas, Hall & Stern, 2015). It extends to the larger picture of global change which concerns the
world. It is therefore, very important to assess the changes in terms of consequential results with
respect to the social and natural approaches to Water Front Developments. People are always
benefitted with development programs and changes. There are myriad of reasons why
urbanization is important but it can only be considered as being correct and beneficial when it is
sustainable and ensured social, economic and environmental progress (McCarthy, 2016). The
policies which regulate planning and development programs state that, scaling benefit associated
with such programs can only be done in terms of how it affects the public and the ecology. The
idea of benefit is generalized and central to the local people and people associated integrally.
However, that should not be the case, as they are intrinsically related to a spectrum of other
outcomes and factors.
There are several implications which must be evaluated in order to understand the change
and effects which are associated with the change of the urban scenario and redevelopment
programs. We need to focus on influence of these actions and how it shapes the geographic
context of the location with the implementation of the intended plan (Leary & McCarthy, 2013).
Society and nature are interdependent and connected. The inseparable tie which the two share
