In this context, does remediation mean tear down or renovate? (I think tear down, but I can’t tell from the stury summary)

From the article:

Interventions
The study consisted of 3 arms: (1) full remediation (installing working windows and doors, cleaning trash, weeding); (2) trash cleanup and weeding only; and (3) a no-intervention control.

Kinda checks out, I was looking at real estate in Baltimore, and the crappy areas had trash all over. There is a nice lady in the area who is trying to clean the area up, but people keep illegally dumping there.

No that would be demolition and redevelopment. This is maintaining existing housing stock, oft-forgotten
