Abstract
Over the past three decades urban redevelopment projects in the United States have typically involved working partnerships between public officials and the business community. This article presents the results of a case study showing how one American city cooperated with private investors to redevelop a large residential area close to its central business district. Through the use of strategic code enforcement and a financial scheme which removed market risks for the developers, the city in question made it possible for the development plan to succeed. The data are examined within the framework of an emerging neo Marxist literature on urban land use. The policy implications of the findings are discussed and analyzed.
