The aim of the workshop was for the Urban Futures team to meet with planners and developers to discuss an urban regeneration site in Lancaster city centre and to consider using future scenarios to make the site more resilient. In the workshop, the attendees learned about the history and context of the regeneration site. We also engaged in a number of exercises around different themes, including mixed-use, water and energy and a particular feature of the regeneration site. The workshop ended with a group discussion and questions.
A report about density and the urban regeneration site, written following the workshop, is available below.
