Multiculturalism is a characteristic of the post-industrial city, which will challenge planning through new paradigms. The essay discusses the experimental analysis conducted in an area of the historic centre of Palermo, in order to assess the potential involvement of migrants in the processes of gentrification, within the controversial panorama of urban regeneration policies and of economic crisis and real estate. Some public policy corrective measures are identified to protect the socio-cultural mix.

Keywords: Gentrification; real estate; planning; migrants; historical centre.
