we need to preserve the social life in the traditional city centre, this is necessary to Continues this places.
if we focus on the buildings only without the social-eco conditions the city will be without any value
I fully understand this wish but surely cities have to continue evolving. This probably means finding new purposes after retail.
Hello,
We need to precisely deal with the people who occupied these traditional areas. This can be achieve by understanding their culture (the way of living), supporting their needs (sustained purposes), and empowering local inhabitants to socioeconomically involve in the development process (enacted policy that encourages local groups to participate in the small business projects (concepts and models).

Best,
I think in a way cities are dynamic and will keep on changing. It would be nice to reflect on the direction of change to maintain and/or create liveable cities. I enjoy work by Jan Jacobs e.g. The death and life of great American cities (1961); The concept of 'third space' Oldenburg, R., & Brissett, D. (1982). The third place. Qualitative sociology, 5(4), 265-284; Landry, C. (2017). The Civic City in a Nomadic World; and on social infrastructure, Klinenberg,E. (2018) Palaces for the People.
Good luck with your quest.
Dear all,
Thank you for your wonderful scientific response
I agree with you all that the city is a dynamic phenomenon that needs constant development and keeping abreast of rapid technological developments.
so that I would like to say for there is no any value for any place without guaranteeing the permanence of its inhabitants, therefore we need to link the economic and social aspects of the residents of the city especially in the historic centre.

Dear Maaike,
Actually, I agree with your idea that the cities are dynamic and will keep on changing in
the traditional cities centres.
so that my question is, How can decrease the changing of the eco-social conditions in cities?
regards
Maaike de Jong
