Lojas com História – Lisboa: Conheça Lisboa pelo seu Comércio Tradicional e Histórico
The article discusses the impact of public policies on tourism gentrification in Lisbon, particularly in response to the financial crisis of 2008 and the subsequent degradation of the housing market. Legislation aimed at liberalising the housing market attracted international investors and promoted tourism, leading to changes in the urban landscape. The “Lojas com História” project focuses on preserving historical retail spaces in Lisbon, recognising their cultural and social value. The initiative aims to revitalise traditional retail establishments and promote their role as meeting places and creative hubs in the city.
