  9. Life-Span of Building Space

  10. What About ….? • Telecommuting? • Internet retailing? • Emerging technologies? And their effect on future space needs?

  11. Telecommuting Promises • Higher productivity • Reduce traffic congestion • Reduce air pollution

  12. Telecommuting Reality • Cabin fever reduces productivity in long- term after short-term gains. • Cabin fever increases trips in am, noon, pm. • Cabin fever increases peak pollution emission discharges with “cold” starts. • Census “work at home” telecommuting indicator: 1990 = 3.0% 2000 = 3.3%

  25. Another Look at Demand RCL Co. finds one-third of current buyers want smart growth / new urbanism features.a Households relocate on average about once every 6 to 9 years. By 2030 about 40-50+ million households will want smart growth / new urbanism features. Future smart-growth demand more than all new growth-related housing units constructed or converted combined. aGregg Logan, EPA Large-Production Builders Conference, January 31, 2007.

  28. The Opportunity The Promise Land

  29. The New American Suburb

  30. Tear Up a Parking LotRebuild Paradise Large, flat and well drained. Major infrastructure in place; upgraded facilities to support redevelopment needed anyway. 4+ lane access, 1+ sides, wide rights-of-way, often capacity for dedicated transit lanes. Single ownership – Kelo problems reduced. Already removed from low-density subdivision use. FARs at 0.15 to 0.25 May more easy to make NIMBYs into YIMBYs. Slide title phrase adapted from Joni Mitchell, Big Yellow Taxi, refrain: “Pave over paradise, put up a parking lot.”

  33. Actions Needed Systematically evaluate existing low-intensity commercial areas for their conversion ripeness time-frame. Assess redevelopment parameters, needs. Evaluate feasibility of creating transit corridors out of existing commercial highways. Engage stakeholders now; create “sector” and “form-based code” plans. Explore win-win financial tools to bridge rate-of- return gap.
