ABSTRACT
Waterfronts have frequently become places where high-income households and high-end urban facilities have located. While these areas have become the number one urban marketing strategy (Desfor and Jørgensen 2004), they are also illustrative of elite-dominated decision-making mechanisms, social polarization, and spatial fragmentation (Taşan-Kok 2009; Wakefi eld 2007; Desfor and Jørgensen 2004; Jacobs 2004; Swyngedouw et al. 2002).
