Abstract
The prevailing urban regeneration practices have shown the irreplaceable role in solving certain social and urban problems. However, the lack of an overall assessment tool to evaluate the overall sustainability of urban regeneration projects has led to many unsustainable issues during the large- scale urban regeneration around the world. Thus, it is deemed necessary to assess the performance of urban regeneration based on specific indicators. Many indicator-based assessment tools for evaluating urban regeneration have been built, but none of them is applicable to all countries due to social, historic, economic, cultural differences. Based on the literature review about sustainable urban renewal in major databases, this research first presents a critical review of recent studies on sustainable urban renewal, then identifies the main indicators for evaluating the economic, environmental and social sustainability of urban regeneration, and summarizes the common indicators used in evaluating urban regeneration performance. Finally, this paper suggests the establishment of indicator-based sustainability assessment framework which has a wide scope of application
