Slum Revitalizing Plan of Baghdadiyah by Spatial Re-Modeling Configuration

A new slum revitalization plan for Baghdadiyah, a densely populated and economically disadvantaged neighborhood in Jeddah's historic district, offers a spatial re-modeling approach that integrates urban connectivity and transport networks to restore the area's architectural heritage. The study, led by H.M. Taki, proposes a design that prioritizes patterns of integration and connection while addressing land-use constraints. By analyzing existing conditions and reconstructing syntactical properties, the research demonstrates how strategic spatial reconfiguration can improve living standards and preserve Jeddah's historic character. This approach provides a model for balancing urban development with cultural preservation in World Heritage contexts.
