The purpose of this study is to introduce the design and early implementation results of Choice Neighborhoods(Choice) initiative, which is the most recent version of public housing policies in the United States designed and implemented under the Obama administration. The Choice initiative aims to support a wide range of strategies locally driven to address problems in disadvantaged neighborhoods with an emphasis on a comprehensive approach to transforming those neighborhoods. In this study, first, I briefly review the history of public housing policies since 1937, particularly focusing on limitations of HOPE VI(Housing Opportunity for People Everywhere) projects to understand the context behind the advent of the program. Second, I introduce the overall design of the Choice program and point out how this programs' design differs from previous public housing programs by reviewing the literature on federal guidelines for the Choice program. This study particularly focuses on introducing social services given to existing residents in public housing and their neighborhoods in redevelopment processes. These social services are intended to address poverty-related problems that public housing residents often confront, to help them break out of the cycle of poverty, and to minimize the negative impacts of relocation triggered by redevelopment. Third, to examine how this program has been implemented and has revealed limitations so far, I review an interim evaluation report based on five cities. This study ends with discussing policy implications for public housing providers and housing policy-makers in South Korea.

The purpose of this study is to identify the supply status and planning trend of North Korean housing through analysis on the North Korean architecture specialized media data. The flat composition is changing and the living room is becoming the center of the houses. Also, in the urban areas, the standard apartment type is four apartments in a row and the plan form is getting diversified into circle type, Y type, and irregular type. On the other hand, in the rural areas, two houses in a row and single house are typical and the change in planning scale and space structure are not substantial. Since the 2000s, design changes have been made to emphasize the third dimensional structure of buildings such as the elliptical houses and L-shaped houses. Furthermore, 8~10 households are located on one floor which leads to the tendency of the building enlargement. In terms of house size, a square concept was introduced to replace the initial 2~3 room concept and the basic module of the room planning the 3 room house based on $3m{\times}3m$. However, there seems to be no standard house size, and the house size may differ depending on the social classandregion. In the early 1980s, when there was focus on the apartment complex construction, the high-rise apartment buildings of 30~40 floors was planned. However, during the Pyongyang redevelopment project, apartments of more or less than 10 floors were built and row-houses of more or less than 4 floors were built. In terms of the complex scale, a lot of small complexes of around 300 households are emerging after 2010. The construction projects are mainly limited to specific regions such as Pyongyang and Samjiyeon, and also limited to specific classes such as the workers and soldiers initially and the scientists lately. In addition, living boundary composition and ancillary facilities for sufficient green area ratio securement and the people of North Korea are maintained consistently. In recent years, the specialized floor planning such as solar house and the house for the disabled people, framework houses for redevelopment business, and multi-storied house construction technology are also emerging.

Busan metropolitan city faced with very low completion rate of residential environment improvement projects. Main reason is to designate proposed residential environment improvement areas without careful analysis of the possibilities of the improvement project completion. This study aims to clarify and analyze the phase characteristics of residential environment improvement process by using 12 variables representing 5 locational characteristics such as place factors, topological factors, size factors, location condition factors and regulation factors. From results of the analysis, this study finds that business floor area ratio, improvement type and site size affect significantly the completion rate of residential redevelopment projects. However, business floor ratio, improvement type, width of frontage road and slope are significant variables to affect the completion rate of residential rebuilding projects.

From 2000s, the development to improve space use of urban area has been requested because of unorganized urban development in 1960~70s. For this reason Urban Redevelopment projects have been changed to urban regeneration project based on the renewed law. Recent urban regeneration Projects are bigger and more complex than ever. These kinds of projects need good communication between projects stakeholders, however there are problems in processing project for the lack of standardized business process. The purpose of this study is to provide common business process of urban regeneration projects for stakeholders to improve understanding project business process through analyzing association way of urban regeneration project and modeling business process by BPMN (Business Process Modeling Notation) method. And also it is expected to improve communication between stakeholders and to shorten project time through prompting project participation with the proposed business process.

The Urban Regeneration New Deal project, which started in 2017, has become an important means of urban redevelopment. Anyang Myunghak Village Urban Regeneration Project was selected in 2017 and is currently in its 4th year in 2021. During that time, many conflicts have occurred in the project promotion process, and conflicts are expected to occur in the future. The purpose of this study was to find out what kind of conflicts occurred in what form and how the conflicts were resolved through what solutions at each stage by targeting these Myunghak Village urban regeneration project. And through this, the characteristics of the conflict aspects that occurred in the Myunghak Village urban regeneration project(①The occurrence of continuous conflict in the urban regeneration project ②Composed of various conflict subjects and contents ③The role of conflict-related organizations is insufficient, ④The importance of communication with residents in conflicts) and implications for conflict management in future urban regeneration projects(①continual conflict management plan, ②Early formation of the conflict management organization and strengthening its role, ③communication with residents for conflict management, ④customized conflict management for each stage of project implementation) was presented.

This paper provides a critical perspective in historic conservation with reference to Hanok (Korean Traditional Courtyard houses) built in central Taegu city, Korea. These Hanok houses began to emerge in the 1920s near the city castle during the Japanese occupation. The houses were shrewdly crafted into a small site in an urban context. Towards the end of 1980s, the demand for urban regeneration arose due to dilapidation of the timber structure and fire safety. Proposals were made to redevelop the areas, but they did not progress past this point. No attempts were made for conservation either and the urban fabric disintegrated continuously. The area is now largely unattended for conservation or redevelopment. This research intends to create an historic account of Hanok in an urban context for its enduring characteristics and historicity as charm and merit that deserve careful apprehension and conservation. This paper suggests that conservation not only serves to gentrify the cultural disruption of the early 20th century but also contributes towards urban regeneration.

We aimed to find new space types and characteristics for creating gardens in the city through the type of idle space in the city, present guidelines that can be used in creating gardens in the future, and establish basic data for expanding green infrastructure. As a result, we found that the idle space in the city was classified into four types, and it was determined that differentiation should be given to the creation of each type. The achievements of this study can be a potential source of urban ecosystem services that can provide community benefits and opportunities for urban regeneration through the redevelopment of the community and support the health and well-being of local residents. In addition, urban idle space can be a valuable resource as a green infrastructure that can be used to support the health of urban ecosystems and improve the quality of life of urban residents.

This study aims to investigate Marseille's Euromméditerranée project and provide policy implications for revitalizing domestic urban regeneration projects. First, we identify Euroméditerranée as a pivotal urban regeneration effort, executed by EPAEM-an organization fostering governance-driven project advancement through collaboration and investment from both central and local governments. This endeavor has significantly contributed to revitalizing Marseille, enriching the quality of life for its residents. Second, this urban regeneration project has the following notable features: consolidated approach with combination of full redevelopment and rehabilitation, integrated regeneration covering hardware-like physical regeneration and software-like economic, cultural, and environmental regeneration; government-type urban regeneration project structure. Finally, we suggest that policymakers should consider the economic scale in urban regeneration projects, national-level government organizations, and efficient public-private partnerships.
