NICMAR Journal of construction managementSummary: With rapid urbanization, there is increasing pressure on converting the rural land into the urban land (also known as Greenfield development) giving rise to urban sprawl. As urban sprawl is inefficient in extending the urban services and development ofthe land, the redevelopment ofinner city areas (also known as Brownfield development) has been gaining importance in both developed and developing countries. Therefore, all major development authorities have been promoting urban redevelopment projects, particularly in the dense and already congested areas ofcities. In India also, several cities have begun undertaking urban redevelopment projects in a big way, particularly under the National Urban Renewal Mission ofthe Government ofIndia. However, there is an academic debate about undertaking such large projects. Unlike the new development, urban redevelopment is a reconstruction ofa previously developed area. Specifically, redevelopment changes the land use between types ofurban land, while new development is changing non-urban land into urban land. But in the process, it is also essential to take the different views ofstakeholders and subject the projects to public scrutiny. In this context, the current paper proposes to evaluate an urban redevelopment project proposed in Pune city. Based on the survey ofthe citizens living in the proposed redevelopment project area, the paper brings out some ofthe important aspects ofproject planning and development that are hitherto not considered in such projects. The paper emphasizes that these aspects need to be carefully considered for better project implementation and success
