The Urban Renaissance was a recent period of repopulation of many British cities, particularly London, after a period of counterurbanisation (depopulation) at mid-Twentieth Century. This was encouraged by the lifting of trade restrictions, allowing business to flourish, pulling in people. Developments such as Docklands and the Barbican Development, funded by the Corporation of London, drew people into the city of London. The Urban Renaissance has also been assisted by gentrification, and has helped to combat Urban Decay.
