This study aims to consider the effectiveness of the Vacant Land Management (VLM) project by PHS in order to revitalize neighborhoods in Philadelphia.The VLM is composed of following two programs; one is the Vacant Land Stabilization Program (VLS) and the other is the Community Land Care program (CLC). The VLS is the program that changes vacant land/lot in target area of Green City Strategy by PHS and the City into interim greening open space. The CLC is the program that employs community based organizations, which can keep vacant land/lot clean in the designated area for management. Both programs can improve urban setting and stimulate affordable housing redevelopment in the abandoned neighborhood.
