Summary/Abstract: The aim of the work is to evaluate the concept of spatial and social revitalization of the Stary Fordon housing estate in Bydgoszcz in reference to the history of this place and social changes, as well as to show all activities that have already been undertaken in this direction. The time frame of the work covers the years 2014-2016. The main tasks consisted in carrying out a query of source materials and conducting a survey with residents. As a result, it was stated that Stary Fordon is an area of high value and potential, which concerns both the resources of space and the local community. The overall assessment of the current revitalization concept is positive. However, it must be admitted that the project does not meet all the needs of the residents. It appears that it is mainly soft social activities which should be developed.
