    <welcome>There's been a lot of talk recently about bulldozing vacant properties in struggling cities. Some say it's a good way to downsize, but others argue it may be too soon to give up on these areas. 

Is there a good way for cities to deal with their abandoned spaces? Do they have to shrink or bulldoze themselves to do it?
