“…Both for the design of sustainable scenarios based on the measures provided by the priority alternatives [67,69], and for the mapping and evaluation of their impact [70], the case study shows the following potentials, among others: (i) vacant urban and peri-urban post-industrial land; (ii) 6 linear km of radial riverside pedestrian paths length; (iii) 200 linear km of greenways surrounding the city (old mining railway lines); (iv) existence of expectant industrial heritage; and (v) commercial land use linked to pedestrian streets within the central urban area. For information only, these potentials suggest the following visions to be evaluated: (a) the ‘industrial forests’ project along the Emscher River in the Ruhr Valley occupying case study brownfields [41,42]; (b) the development of new economic activities such as forestry and logging [19]; (c) new interconnected urban green areas along with affordable land available for alternative land use options [2,5,24,25] with public-private financing and use [34], and flexibly communicated [38] that would provide the city with identity and new economic drivers [71,72,73].…”
