- Utilize existing building stock: identify the opportunities for authentic and distinctive “places”
- Enhance and protect the features of the physical environment that defines such places
- Reveal and seek inspiration from the city’s history
- Intensify urbanism, develop appropriate uses and quality
- Create a mix of uses: build synergy
