I don't think you can legally "relocate" people from their own homes, if anything it's better to give people ownership of adjacent properties in the worst neighborhoods and let them maintain it. Which is also what the city is doing.

I know what they're doing, but it isn't what I'm suggesting. You would need to move people in order to create large enough contiguous open spaces.
You don't get anything from having a few plots here and there turned over to urban farms, even if it adds up to a lot of land in total. But creating a bunch of 10 or 50 or 100 acre parks could actually provide a great legacy for the city's eventual revival.
