## Abstract (arXiv)

Between 1960 and 1980, urban renewal transformed many cities, creating vast handwritten records. These documents posed a significant challenge for researchers due to their volume and handwritten nature. The launch of GPT-4V in November 2023 offered a breakthrough, enabling large-scale, efficient transcription and analysis of these historical urban renewal documents.
