Retrofitting Cities for Tomorrow's World highlights some of the innovative and diverse ways of imagining and re-imagining urban retrofit perspectives, set in the context of futures-based thinking. It explores how to determine the best way to plan and co-ordinate a more sustainable urban future by 2050 through urban retrofitting approaches to both residential and commercial property; how cities need to govern for urban retrofit; and specifically, how future urban transitions and pathways can be managed, modelled and navigated. The book is an invaluable source for academic researchers as well as policy advisors and consultants.
