Abstract
In September 1995, the Unit for Housing and Urbanization at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design authored an urban development plan and management strategy for the “Revitalization of the Old Town of Vilnius,” encompassing a technical planning strategy designed for revitalization efforts in the Old Town of Vilnius, Lithuania.
The technical proposal included plans for identifying a strategic plan, analysis of the sustainable economic factors of the Old Town, solutions for attracting private investment and encouraging economic activities, and the development of legal frameworks for prospective revitalization strategies.
