Theoretical and practical aspects of regeneration of decommissioned industrial areas in Oradea, Romania

Urban regeneration is known to be an experienced but complex phenomenon. Even though, over the years, urban regeneration, in Europe, has been widely used, but in Romania, the concept is still new, many formal industrial spaces are abandoned and there is a lack of interest in bringing these areas back to life. The aim of this paper is to study the concept of urban regeneration, figure out the practical aspects of it and observing the current situation of sites in the city of Oradea, Romania.
