Abstract
The impact of epidemics on urban restructuring is one of the most critical planning issues. This chapter presents a twin-track approach to intervention in the informal housing areas in Syria after investigating the ability to face the impact of Covid-19 epidemic. The informal housing “al-Radar” area in Tartous City was adopted as a case study. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used for a multi-dimensional analysis of gathered data and site planning aspects. The goals are to achieve participatory decision-making to guide area restructuring aligned with national urban development laws. In addition, laying down the foundation of an area plan for future on-site redevelopment considers community cohesion and land-use improvements. Results illustrated the poor traditional planning criteria efficiency in achieving urban resilience/immunity required for a “new normal” and the need for good governance in land administration utilizing 15-minute city principles and a street-led citywide approach for the full integration into the city system as a tool to promote sustainable development.
