N2  - Recently the urban heritage of the 20thcentury neighborhoods in Egypt has been facing new challenges and obstacles, such as losing a great deal of their urban harmony and architectural heritage wealth. In the contrary, the developed countries are following new urban theories, established in the late 20th century which could protect their urban heritage from the harmful effects of different modernization facets, by fostering walkability and providing a pedestrian friendly environment. Walkability could raise the heritage awareness by engaging people again in the street through enhancing the social aspect in the neighborhoods that has been severely affected with the social mobility since the revolution in 1952. Moreover, it could control the urban sprawl that has a robust consequence on the urban harmony of old centers. Thus, the thesis seeks to explore the merits of the new urbanism approaches such as New Urbanism Theories and The General Theory of walkability, aiming to draw conclusions and propose recommendations of introducing walkability approaches in the urban regeneration projects in Egypt
