Chiara, if I've understood your request properly, I'd strongly recommend Jacqui Karn's book Narratives of neglect, http://is.gd/L9NeOZ, which gets at most of the nuances of resident experience of being regenerated.

Subject: [URB-GEOG-FORUM] urban regeneration 'from the bottom-up’
Hi everybody,
I am trying to collect materials to give more strength to the idea of urban regeneration 'from the bottom-up’ as a tool for empirical research about the restructuring of urban governance.
I am especially interested in conceptualizing those experiences that foster urban regeneration (wide meaning) outside a policy framework. They may differ in inspirational principles, realization practices and final aims (e.g. Private-led place-branding, but also social entrepreneurialism or squat initiatives).
If there’s anyone who wants to share with me case studies or references, please write me to: [log in to unmask]
Thank you,
Chiara
