Abstract Urban shrinkage causes a number of challenges for cities. One such challenge is how to cope with abandoned areas and their reuse and governance. There is often a supply surplus of urban land in shrinking cities, as many spaces are vacant after deindustrialisation, functional losses, abandonment or demolition. One the one hand, dealing with brownfield sites is hugely challenging. But on the other hand, this challenge also provides an opportunity for new types of land use including greening as well as temporary uses and/or appropriation of land by small businesses, neighbourhood communities or civic initiatives. Set against this background, the chapter analyses and discusses the challenges caused by shrinkage for urban land use, especially with regard to the green reuse and governance of brownfield sites. Among other things, it identifies challenges and conflicts related to development, management and stakeholder interests as well as new opportunities for sustainable land use.
