Port Harcourt Waterfront Urban Regeneration - Scoping Study
The study outlines a long term, sustainable, urban plan-based solution to the current conflict of interest involving the Rivers State Government and residents of the Port Harcourt Waterfront communities whose neighbourhoods are under threat of demolition. It is intended to be the preliminary, scoping phase of a more extensive, in-depth main study to be undertaken in 2010, aimed at meeting needs both of the government and the existing population.
