Real Estate Development and City Planning

Real Estate Development and City Planning

Abstracts - Workshop 11

Real estate development makes a significant contribution to the process of urban change and creates a highly visible product that can open up or close down subsequent social and economic opportunities in the city. City planning, in helping to shape, regulate and stimulate the process of real estate development, has a crucial impact on the type and quality of development produced at particular locations. This sub-theme will explore the interaction between real estate development and city planning as well as the dynamics of each. Among the topics on which papers would be especially welcome are:

      • Current trends in real estate development and their impact on urban futures
      • Assessing the effectiveness of city planning in a mixed urban economy
      • Achieving the re-use or redevelopment of disused land and building
      • Challenges of mixed use development, waterfront regeneration or mega-projects
