The biggest problem with the renovation of the centres of Polish cities is the fact that their revitalization is accomplished only through the process of gentrification. The implementation of exclusively this measure makes renovation largely ineffective and leads to social conflicts between the incoming representatives of the middle class and the underprivileged residents who have lived in the central city space for decades. However, there are exceptions to the rule, as in the case of the Poznań administrative housing estate Wilda. The present study also aims to compare the changes ongoing in the above mentioned housing estate with the changes occurring in other gentrified spaces of Poznań, by identifying factors which seem instrumental to the effectiveness of the gentrification process.
