The old city centre neighbourhoods are rich in culture, but they face a problem called dilapidated fabric. Urban regeneration is also called urban revitalisation, urban renewal, and urban renaissance. In the field of public policies, these names refer to issues such as economic stagnation, environmental degradation, neglect of communities, unemployment growth, and some social problems. It is a comprehensive concept that means improving the situation of deprived areas in economic, physical, social, and cultural aspects. The planning approach identifies future opportunities and threats and shows us how to take advantage of future opportunities. Paying attention to the livability of dilapidated structures in the face of urban problems and using a planning approach to predict and manage the problems of dilapidated structures has been less analyzed. The purpose of this foresight research is to develop a conceptual framework for recreating dilapidated fabrics based on the perceptual reading of citizens. In this regard, descriptive research methods, content analysis, and a review of documents and theorists in this field have been used. The results have shown that the urban regeneration approach in the central fabric of cities has been one of the priorities of urban planning in recent years. Therefore, efforts should be made in regeneration measures in the field of various dimensions of development, both physical and non-physical, to pay attention to the manifestation of the presence of people in the environment and to strengthen their social life and their understanding of the environment, to strengthen the social life of the old city and pay attention to the flow of life in the fabric, and to pay attention to public participation in all projects. Also, in the economic field, efforts should be made to create the necessary platforms for playing a major role in the urban economy and to take the neighbourhood out of economic stagnation in urban regeneration. It can certainly be considered essential to pay attention to physical and non-physical solutions in successful urban regeneration.
