Abstract
Due to high costs involved in urban soil and construction in height related to high density housing lower middle class are being excluded as potential inhabitants of regeneration and repopulation projects in central areas of the city. The aim is to reveal a strategy for a wider range of people to live in these projects, using a housing allowance policy based on the construction of mixed buildings whose income will be used as the allowance for San José de Costa Rica’s low-income families. A strategy to agree on the location of the projects as well as a urban management model and project management to implement the strategy are stated. As a result roles for the new actors are defined: housing association and town council in collective housing projects’ management.
