Every city has pockets of underutilized land, underdeveloped urban areas, or areas that are currently in a state of disrepair. Such spaces weaken the image of the city as well as the living conditions. Also, in addition to the shortcomings of the physical structure, one of the main problems of the multi-family housing areas (MFHA) is caused by individual residents, or rather its social structure, which is primarily affected by the occurrence of vandalism. Any aspiration and any attempt to change the urban landscape is a complex process. However, today there are a large number of positive examples of the regeneration of certain areas. With that, the term regeneration and transformation of small and large cities, complexes and other open areas became even more striking and resonant, and the term regeneration itself became more convincing and significant for the people and the executive authorities. The goal of the work is based on the presentation of the urban regeneration of MFHA with a focus on promoting ecological, social and spatial well-being. In the first part of the paper, the concept of MFHA regeneration is defined and three selected examples of the best practice from Europe are analyzed that show the entire course of its realization. Rosenhøj in Aarhus and Buchheimer Weg in Köln, were selected as examples of the best practice. In the second part of the paper, a comparative analysis of two examples is performed and the best definition of the process of urban regeneration.
