Course Description:
Cities have been described as the main human invention and their role in social and economic life is still expanding. To a large extend, cities 'are' real estate. A large part of the national capital stock consists of urban real estate. Within cities there is a concentration in a small number of centers and subcenters. The built environment is extremely durable, it will often remain in place for decades or even centuries. Investment decisions with respect to real estate are often taken by private actors, but planners often impose strong restrictions, The central theme of the course is that planners and market forces both have an important role to play in creating a productive and attractive urban environment. Their interaction can be synergetic, but this outcome is not guaranteed.
