Abstract This paper investigates the contemporary issues in waterfront regeneration strategies. It evaluates and analyzes the legacies from past international waterfront projects through case examples and review policies, practices, trends and issues that pertain to waterfront regeneration. The impact of these within urban regeneration and urban cultural contexts are in turn considered. In this respect, the paper tracks the changes from typical festival-type market regeneration initiatives of the 1980s and 1990s to more culturally and entrepreneurial-focused projects evidenced today. Contemporary issues that stakeholders should consider when evaluating waterfront projects are considered. The paper gives recommendations for the direction of future waterfront development strategies.

The move toward more culturally orientated approaches to regeneration have involved the development of locally based innovation and cultural strategies in partnership with local municipalities which are increasingly turning to cultural resources and small business operations to both stimulate new economic activity and to aid physical regeneration of urban environments, waterfronts and communities. .
These performance indicators provide the basis from which urban waterfront projects can be successfully initiated and from which broader macro-regeneration and urban policy objectives that befit a citys future economic, social, cultural growth and well-being can be fulfilled and sustained. .
