3.1 Degrees of Intervention

Propositions

Based on the findings of this urban analysis, the Compendium offers a variety of propositions for the continuing evolution of the city centre. These propositions consider varying degrees of intervention and are generally located outwith the areas of committed projects, they include:

  • The redefinition of urban blocks to improve legibility and provide recognisable gateways into the city centre;

  • The revitalisation of the river as an important element of the city’s identity through the development of appropriate regeneration projects along its length;

  • The creation of new ‘urban villages’ in St. Vincent’s and Riverside; and

  • The promotion of a new identity for Sheffield as a leading knowledge and cultural industries economy.
