Currently, there is a tendency to rehabilitate, anthropogenic landscapes in the urban environment. This is due to the continuing development of cities, changes in production technologies in various areas, the tasks to improve the quality of life of the population in cities. The processes of industrialization and urbanization of the landscape, which took place in the XX century and continue today, have led not only to negative environmental, economic and social consequences for most urban areas but also to the alienation of urban space from residents. The reorientation of the economic development of cities, accompanied by the tendency to close or withdraw industrial production outside the city limits, determines the need to find new directions for the use of these territories. The article is devoted to the actual topic of rehabilitation and reconstruction of the anthropogenic landscape of the urban environment from the point of view of sustainable development and increasing its recreational attractiveness. Special attention paid to modern approaches in world practice for the ecological reconstruction of post-industrial landscapes in the city. Extending to public and collective spaces of streets, yards, squares, forming a cultural landscape of new quality on the site of former industrial production, landscape transformations allow solving the most important task of urban environment renovation. Passive industrial areas occupy a significant part of the most attractive areas of the city from an investment point of view. Such zones have the potential for urban development. The article also formulated the basic principles of rehabilitation and renovation of former industrial areas, the main purpose of which is sustainable development and the formation of a comfortable urban environment.
