Urban Redevelopment for the Eastern Area in the City of Nablus

Abstract
Areas in the eastern part of the city suffer from different conflicts. This area faces organizational problems which are indiscriminate development and poor land use. In addition to that the eastern part has archaeological site "an ancient Canaanite city Shechem" and open areas that are abandoned and used incorrectly which led to weak relationship with the other areas in the city of Nablus. Moreover, the higher concentration of facilities, public services and commercial areas in the city center led to an unfair distribution of work and create shopping trips. Therefore, redevelopment planning will be a good choice to handle with these problems and to help in redeveloping this area and to merge it with surrounding by the participation of all sector of the local community. This research tries to explore possible alternatives which can assist in redeveloping the area in the eastern part of the city towards a more sustainable and developed one, taking into consideration the different challenges that confronting this area.
