“…[Van Criekingen, 2006Decroly and Wayens, 2016]. The importance of local (and regional) aspects in ensuring the economic success of the pedestrian area in Brussels seems all the more important considering the decline in pedestrian areas in North American city centres since they first appeared in the 1980s, which is partly explained by the fact that mobility culture is focused traditionally on accessibility by car [Faulk, 2006], as it is in Belgium.…”

“…American experiences confirm that, in the face of growing sub-urbanisation, revitalisation activities should focus on preserving and improving the unique character of the downtown, in comparison with other parts of the city.

Large Polish cities 1 are currently dealing with an increasing significance of downtown areas, extending outside of the city centers (meaning the area directly surrounding the city square). The downtown alone seems to influence the fate of entire cities, facilitating their success or contributing to their failure. A good demographic, social and economic condition of a downtown, its positive image and the dynamic development of the part of the city perceived as the business and administration centre and a meeting place of residents and tourists, contribute to the image and potential of the whole city to a great extent.Changes in urban surroundings, the signs of which may be observed in spatial, aesthetic, architectural, urban-planning and socio-economic aspects, determine the functioning and condition of local real estate markets. Whether potential buyers consider the real estate attractive depends on the assessment of its significant features, of which transaction price is representative.The main research objective of the article is the identification, assessment and interpretation of differences in prices registered in the years 2009-2014 in downtown residential real estate markets. These considerations have been referred to analogical phenomena within the entire cities under examination. The detailed research objective is an attempt to explain the sources of individual reactions of the analyzed real estate markets in downtown areas. The cities under research include: Bydgoszcz, Kalisz, Toruń and Wrocław.The authors applied quantitative analysis (statistical, comparative) to transaction data registered in local residential real estate markets.

“…Het belang van de lokale (en de gewestelijke) schaal voor het economische succes van de Brusselse voetgangerszone is des te groter gezien de neergang van de voetgangerszones in de Noord-Amerikaanse stadscentra sinds de jaren 1980. Deze neergang is deels toe te schrijven aan de mobiliteitscultuur die Van "grote voetgangerszone" tot stadsproject: troeven en uitdagingen voor het...
