FAQ About The Impact of Gentrification on Urban Cultural Landscapes
What role do local governments play in managing gentrification's impact on cultural spaces?
Local governments can significantly influence the impact of gentrification on cultural spaces through policy and regulation. By enforcing zoning laws, they can protect spaces for cultural and community use. Governments may also offer incentives for developers to include affordable housing and preserve historical sites. Additionally, they can support grants and programs for local artists and cultural organizations to ensure they remain integral to the community despite economic pressures.
