- Description
- The wider process of urban change, ongoing fringe development is important alongside regeneration processes happening in inner and middle-ring suburbs and landmark urban regeneration projects occurring on brownfield sites. This chapter explores urban regeneration in Australian cities through the lens of the transformation of suburban development. It draws on a case study of Huntlee, New South Wales (NSW), to highlight new trends in reshaping the urban fringe. The chapter illustrates, contemporary suburban fringe development both connects with and departs from the ideals which drove suburban development in the twentieth century, to aspire towards more varied, better serviced and sustainable models. Rather than positioning suburban development as something that happens ‘out there’, it position fringe development as a central aspect of the urban regeneration story. The chapter traces the connections to and parallels with inner and middle-ring regeneration to that occurring via new suburban development on the fringe.
