Cities have been serving as centers of trade and commerce for centuries. As time passes, these city cores transform themselves into historic urban centers or into inner city region. The inner city is stained by several problems like inadequate and obsolete infrastructure facilities, inadequate use of buildings, lack of open spaces, traffic congestion, a mix of conflicting non-conforming land uses, poor dwellings and unhygienic conditions, environmental dispossession, social malice, unemployment and poverty are due to high density of population. While most of them still stand replete with buildings, artifacts, and other features of historical and cultural value in the city, these living tradition and culture fall into neglect, often as an unintended by-product of industrialization and rapid urbanization. These historic urban centers represent opportunity for growth and economic generation. Thus revitalization of the inner city is very important and makes sense from multiple perspectives.
