Abstract:
The level of public service accessibility differs by residential locations. Existing literature has documented the effects of public service accessibility on housing prices. However, few studies have examined how public service provision affects housing prices under the Chinese centralized governance system. Using data from different geographic scales, this study uses a multilevel research design to examine how public service provision is associated with housing prices in Shanghai. Results show that though the total expenditure at the urban district level is not related to housing prices, government redistributive expenditure is positively associated with housing price and the developmental expenditure is on the opposite. The expenditure effects are further mediated by the accessibility to public facilities at the community level. The findings suggest that, as public service accessibility has been capitalized into housing prices, the decentralized fiscal system with relatively centralized governance structure may have reinforced urban polarization in Shanghai.

Abstract:
In Singapore, the public resale housing market is an active second-hand housing market, whereby previously subsidised new public housing units were being transacted at market prices. In contrast to the private housing price determinants that have been identified in the international literature, the prices of public resale housing in Singapore are largely determined by public policies rather than by economic variables. This paper provides some empirical evidence on how and to what degree public housing policies affected the price dynamics of public resale housing in Singapore during the 1990s. The findings have additional implications of the wider consequences of public policies on the prices of private housing units.

Abstract:
Purpose – The aim of this study was to investigate the dimensions of housing adequacy evaluation by residents in public housing with a view to identifying how government and construction professionals can deliver adequate housing facilities. Design/methodology/approach – The research is based on household surveys involving 517 respondents selected from nine public housing estates constructed between 2003 and 2010 in Ogun State Southwest Nigeria. The data were collected using structured questionnaire administered to the residents by the researchers through visits to the housing estates. A total of 33 variables derived from the review of the literature were used in measuring housing adequacy. Descriptive statistics and factor analyses were used in analysis of the data. Findings – The study reveals that residents perceived their housing situation as inadequate. They evaluated housing adequacy based on four key dimensions: ambient condition of interiors spaces, security, utilities and neighbourhood facilities; social infrastructure; level of privacy and size of sleeping; and living and dining areas in the residences. These dimensions of housing adequacy evaluation were found not to be exactly the same way experts conceived housing adequacy in the literature. Research limitations/implications – The concept of housing adequacy can be used to examine occupants’ housing preferences and their standard of living, the quality of housing and the performance of mass housing projects. Practical implications – The paper makes practical suggestions to government and construction professionals on how to improve adequacy levels of public housing. Specifically, in the areas of giving more attention to ambient condition of interiors, security, utilities and neighbourhood facilities as well as privacy and sizes of main activities areas in dwelling units in the design, construction and management of public housing projects. Originality/value – The study identifies dimensions of housing adequacy evaluation by residents in public housing and compares these with experts’ conception of housing adequacy.

Abstract:
Abstract Objective: To analyze Brazilian scientific production on housing for autonomous elderly persons. Method: A descriptive, analytical integrative review type study was carried out. The following guiding question was defined: what is the Brazilian scientific production relating to housing for autonomous elderly persons in indexed on-line periodicals from 2000 to 2015? Results: Thirty-three articles were identified in total, of which only 13 met the inclusion criterion. Using the Content Analysis technique, the following categories were formed: Modalities of housing for the elderly; Public housing policies for the elderly and Housing and quality of life. Conclusion: Most of the studies discussed types of housing for the elderly, falling into the category "Modalities of housing for the elderly", and identifying a tendency towards one-person dwellings. In relation to the category "Public housing policies for the elderly", the articles reflected on the rights and the guarantees of the elderly in relation to a suitable home. The "Housing and quality of life" category aimed to compare the quality of life of elderly people living alone or with a partner, as well as their perception of exclusive condominium developments for this population. There is a need for research on the issue in question, since there is an increase in the number of elderly people without housing, making it necessary for the state to meet this demand.

Abstract:
Abstract Older residents in public housing represent a particularly vulnerable population at risk for cognitive decline due to their disadvantaged socioeconomic and health-related characteristics which are well-known risk factors of dementia. This study aims to synthesize available evidence regarding the prevalence of dementia and cognitive impairment among public senior housing residents. We conducted a literature search for studies published in English in the following databases: PsychInfo, PubMed, MEDLINE, CINAHL, and The Cochrane Library. We focused on observational studies about residents of public senior housings that reported prevalence and/or incidence of dementia and/or cognitive impairment screened by assessment tools for detecting dementia equivalent cognitive impairment. A total of ten studies were included for a meta-analysis to estimate the overall prevalence of cognitive impairment and dementia. Seven of ten studies utilized screening tools to detect dementia equivalent cognitive impairment. Overall pooled prevalence of cognitive impairment or dementia was 20.4% (95%CI: 14.1-27.5). The subgroup analyses revealed the pooled prevalence of cognitive impairment among residents of public senior housing was 25.5% (95%CI: 22.0-29.1) and pooled prevalence of dementia was 13.5% (95%CI: 8.3-19.7). The subgroup findings suggest the prevalence of dementia may be higher among residents of public senior housing compared to their peers in non-public housing. Also, this population may be particularly susceptible to an unrecognized or delayed diagnosis of dementia due to the lack of formal detection strategies in public senior housing. More resources should be allocated for detection to ensure better support the residents.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter analyses income inequality and socio-economic segregation in South Africa’s most populous city, Johannesburg. The end of apartheid’s segregation in 1991 has been followed by both continuity and change of urban spatial patterns. There is a considerable literature on the transformation of inner-city areas from white to black, and of the steady diffusion of black middle-class residents into once ‘white’ suburbs. There has been less analysis on the nature and pace of socio-economic mixing. Four key findings from this chapter are as follows. First, dissimilarity indices show that bottom occupation categories and the unemployed are highly segregated from top occupation categories, but that the degree of segregation has decreased slightly between the censuses of 2001 and 2011. Second, the data quantifies the way in which Johannesburg’s large population of unemployed people are more segregated from top occupations than any of the other employment categories, although unemployed people are less segregated from bottom occupations. Third, over the same period, residents employed in bottom occupations are less likely to be represented in affluent former white suburbs. This seemingly paradoxical finding is likely to have resulted from fewer affluent households accommodating their domestic workers on their properties. Fourth, although most post-apartheid public housing projects have not disrupted patterns of socio-economic segregation, some important exceptions do show the enormous capacity of public housing to transform the spatial structure of the city.

Abstract:
To make house prices affordable to first-home buyers on low-to-medium incomes, one of the solutions is the capped cost of public-housing projects. The accepted tender price forms the major portion of final project cost, and the level of the accuracy of the project’s tender price determines the possibility of achieving the cost cap. Hence, exploring and developing effective tender price forecasting tools is worth researching. To achieve this goal, the literature suggests that an understanding of the tools and factors affecting the accuracy of public-housing tender price is crucial. There is little to no research into tender price forecasting tools and the factors affecting the accuracy and efficiency of public-housing tender prices in the context of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. This research aims to fill some of this gap. It is a first step in an ongoing programme of research that aims to develop a public-housing project tender-forecast tool. The research aims to identify the possible tender price forecasting tools and the factors significantly affecting the accuracy of public-housing project tender prices in the context of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. Preliminary interviews were carried out. The sample was limited to experts with at least five years’ public-housing tender experience in the Aotearoa New Zealand context. The frequency method was adopted to carry out data analysis. All preliminary interview participants agreed that material cost, labour cost and quality of design information were the top three factors significantly affecting the accuracy of the tender price. The research identifies loopholes in the current public-housing project tender practices in the context of the Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland public-housing sector. The main contribution of this research is providing insights for public-housing project cost estimators who aim to balance the accuracy of tender price and the efficiency of tender process, by using the research findings to select the appropriate tendering forecast tools. The research also provides a base for future research to develop tender forecasting tools by using information gaps and current industry practice findings. The data collected from this preliminary research are subjective; participants measured the importance of factors based on their own subjective opinions. There is no guarantee that the data collected fully reflect the opinions of the whole public-housing sector in the context of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. To overcome this limitation, the researchers will develop a questionnaire, and invite more eligible experts to complete questionnaire as the next research step.

Considering the social dimension of Sustainable Design, this research aims to review the possibilities of implementing the Housing First philosophy as a public policy, as it is characterized as a form of action of Design for the Base of the Pyramid (BoP) that promotes the inclusion of the homeless population in the community and provides equity and social cohesion. The theoretical basis describes the ideas of Design BOP and relates them to Housing First services through a literature review of authors working on these definitions. This is followed by an analysis of the Seattle-based organization Low Income Housing Institute (LIHI), more specifically the Tiny House Villages program. After discussing the organizational and design guidelines they propose, the information gathered is related to the Brazilian social context.

Abstract:
This study investigates the complex interplay between environmental concerns, urban mobility challenges, and legal intricacies associated with car ownership with a focus on Austria, Germany, and Switzerland. Carsharing (CS) emerges as a key element in transport systems, particularly in residential areas, aiming to reduce car dependency, reduce parking spaces, promote increased public transport usage, and reducing traffic congestion.The study explores whether CS induces a modal shift, how many cars can be replaced with a CS-vehicle, if developers can save parking spaces and thus construction costs through CS services, and what the legal landscape for parking and CS is in Austria. The research uses a multimethod approach, including a systematic literature review, semi-structured interviews, desktop research on existing carsharing projects in residential housing, and an examination of legislative aspects in Austria.Findings suggest that around 25% of analysed papers explore the connection between CS and housing. Interviews highlight key enablers for CS, including good public transport access, strategic placement of CS hubs, and the availability of e-cars. Experts specializing in the carsharing field suggest on average 12 cars can be replaced by one CS vehicle. Projects implemented in Austria, Switzerland, and Germany, where CS costs are shared among tenants or mobility fees are incorporated into rent, indicate the viability of this approach. Additionally, projects in Switzerland that regulate car ownership in lease contracts suggest the potential for reducing parking spaces by offering adequate alternative mobility options. CS is explicitly addressed only in Vienna's garage law, permitting the reduction of mandatory parking spaces. In other Austrian federal states, it is generally subject to case-by-case evaluations.Therefore, carsharing is integrated into housing developments, but faces challenges like parking limitations and legal complexities (Caruso, 2023). Austria's complex legal landscape, governed by individual states, adds intricacies to car-sharing feasibility in residential complexes. Navigating this legal terrain to realize practical mobility solutions is challenging due to limited documentation on actual projects. The study explores whether carsharing induces a modal shift. Additionally, it investigates whether developers can save parking spaces and construction costs through carsharing services, evaluating literature and practical experiences for potential reductions in parking spaces ​(Caruso 2023)​. To address the research questions, a multimethod approach was employed. Initially, a systematic literature review was undertaken to investigate whether the implementation of car sharing in residential developments could induce a modal shift, reduce private car ownership, and consequently decrease the required number of parking spaces. Using a defined search string, 188 results were initially identified, and after a rigorous elimination process, 45 papers remained for in-depth analysis. To gain insights into the practical implementation of mobility in housing, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 13 experts, project managers, funding experts, and residential developers and operators. Additionally, desktop research on existing housing projects was carried out, evaluating currently more than 25 projects in Austria, Germany and Switzerland. The legislative aspects, involving parking space regulations, mobility contracts and building codes in Austria's nine federal states, were examined through desk research and interviews, comparing them with regulations in Germany and Switzerland. This multimethod approach allowed for a practical exploration of the research questions, by complementing all results of literature, project research, interviews, and legislative background within a master matrix. The study, concluding in January 2024, provides findings from its literature review, revealing that around 25% of the analysed papers explore the connection between carsharing and housing. Preliminary findings from interviews, emphasize that key enablers for carsharing include good public transport access and city bicycle networks, strategically placed carsharing hubs with recognizable branding, and the availability of e-cars for mobility assurance. This study gives a policy overview of the current state in Austria and lays a foundation for future research.

Abstract:
Household air pollution (HAP) is linked to 4 million deaths worldwide, with 85% occurring in Low-middle income countries. HAP predominantly affects women as they tend to do the household daily chores. It is therefore important to understand women’s perceptions and wants for this topic. This was a joint project with 15 qualitative semi structured interviews conducted by each researcher. The research took place during May and June 2016 in Kavresthali, a village in Kathmandu district, interviewing married women over the age of 25. Data was analysed using thematic analysis. Burning wood on a traditional cook stove was identified as the most common cause of HAP. The effects of HAP most commonly affected women, with eye and respiratory problems the most commonly associated symptom. Cost, habit and taste were barriers identified preventing the switch to cleaner fuel types and stoves. Lack of information and cheaper gas were key improvements participants wanted to see. The findings in this study were similar to those identified in the literature based in other LMIC. Despite numerous common themes, unique challenges were identified in Nepal. Geographical and political issues were exclusive to Nepal. Four SMART recommendations are made which are specific to the study area: • Subsidised cleaner fuel • Education and advice to empower local women • Promotion of Improved cook stoves • Further research focusing on housing structure and ventilation Key Words Household Air pollution, Nepal

Abstract:
After the economic rise in Saudi Arabia in 1938, workers migrated from across Saudi Arabia seeking better work opportunities. Statistics from the General Census of Population and Housing in 2010 reveal that the total number of international immigrants increased from 0.7 to 1.73 million between 2002 and 2010 (from 29.4% to 50% of the Population), coming from different countries, cultural, social and religious backgrounds. Over recent years, a perception has developed by some citizens that there are too many Immigrants, which has exposed increased feelings of insecurity. Anti-immigrant attitudes and social exclusion have become more prominent, Saudi nationals have become concerned about diminishing national identity, in addition to believe that expatriates take available work and economic opportunities away from nationals, main cause of crime, and moral corruption. Immigrants have brought with them new ideas, skills and practices from their home cultures, which add to the new urban cultures in Jeddah. This has helped to create a culturally vibrant urban environment. The study will discuss the challenges faced by immigrants in Jeddah, in terms of interaction and social harmony with Saudi citizens in public spaces, and the underlying causes of those challenges. Qualitative method is used in this study, through discuss and analyse general literature review about the objective of the research (Public space and Immigration social challenges in Jeddah), then propose general recommendations that contribute to the improvement of the immigrants social life in the public space.

Abstract:
When we think about architectural design what comes to mind is the final result, this being the visualisation ofthe proposed structure, which enables architects to successfully present their con- cepts to customers, stakeholders, and the general public. Advancements in technology systemat- ically keep transforming the way architects present their work, from traditional methods such as drawings, renderings and physical models to digital representation. Although these techniques offer useful presentation, they frequently fail to capture the real spatial experience and sense of immersion that buildings offer. Today, Virtual reality (VR) technologies offer an either further ad- vancement, and are effective tools for improving architecture visualization and offering immersive design experiences. This paper will look into the potential of VR for architectural visualization as well as its effects on how architects communicate and make decisions. By building immersive, engaging, and realistic virtual worlds that closely mimic the sensation of being inside a built location, virtual reality presents a potential to reduce this gap. The study evaluates the effect of VR on architectural vision from various angles. What are the benefits of VR? Does virtual reality truly capture an authentic spatial experience? This prompts the need to assess how VR can enhance design communication. This involves facilitating interaction and immediate input among stakeholders like architects, clients, and others. Additionally, it requires contemplat- ing how VR can facilitate collaborative design procedures. One way it achieves this is by aiding architects in appraising design alternatives and experimenting with light conditions. However, while presenting opportunities, the pragmatic application of VR includes many obsta- cles to its acceptance. These considerations encompass factors such as accessibility and the ne- cessity for specialized knowledge and tools. The study also outlines fundamental principles and optimal approaches to effectively integrate VR into architectural visualization workflows. This is realized by conducting a thorough examination of existing literature and case studies. The investi- gation delves into various VR techniques and their real-time interactivity, along with their impacts on architectural design and communication. In addition, the human elements that influence VR experiences will be taken into account such as user comfort, presence, and the risk for cognitive overload. The results of this study demonstrate how virtual reality can revolutionize architectural visualization. Suggestions for architects, designers, and stakeholders include how to use virtual reality (VR) to improve decision-making, increase design communication, and provide more cap- tivating and immersive architectural experiences.

Abstract:
Globally, lower fertility rates combined with increased life expectancy and the transition of “baby boomers” toward retirement have contributed to an aging population in many societies. Ultimately, these demographic developments contain immense societal and economic implications for the public and private sectors. Subsequently, the term “Silver Economy” has been used to describe the delivery of products and services to older people, with a particular focus on leveraging Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) to improve the well-being of older citizens in multi-faceted domains: healthcare, the labor market, social care, mobility, housing, and many others. In an increasingly globalized knowledge economy, regional knowledge sharing, integration, and synergy can enable innovation in the Silver Economy and combat population aging. Transnational innovation networks (TINs) represent a pathway for achieving these goals. Although research exploring population aging, primarily from the EU, has grown in the literature over the past five years, there is a knowledge gap regarding transnational innovation approaches, platforms, and initiatives in the Silver Economy domain. Thus, this paper utilizes a literature review approach from a global perspective to survey the Silver Economy and population aging transnational innovation landscape. Our state-of-the-art review shows the importance of transnational knowledge flows enabled by TINs and subsequent innovations.

Abstract:
In Public Housing that Worked Nicholas Bloom championed the success of the New York City Housing Authority, but to do so had to champion bureaucratic workability over architectural value. In fact, his assessment had to disregard the fact that nearly all of the high-rise low-income housing projects are psychologically partitioned island wastelands, anticities within the city. Louis Wirth, Jane Jacobs and now Steven Johnson have offered their generational testaments to density, diversity, mixed use, and continuity- what they considered made urban life meaningful. Steven Connsummarized- “the problem of the 21st century will be how we re-urbanize, how we fix the mistakes of our anti-urban 20th century.”The Pratt Institute UG urban design studio, Re-inventing Public Housing, is intended as one step toward meeting the challenge starting with the question-must we really accept the super block public housing estate for what it is or is there a way to transform and reinterpret it, and by doing so eliminate its stigma, its isolation, and anti-urban grip on the city?

Full text
Abstract:
Despite the sharp drop in transit ridership throughout the USA that began in March 2020, two different uses of land near transit stations continue to be implemented in the United States to promote ridership. Since 2010, transit agencies have given priority to multi-family residential construction referred to as transit oriented development (TOD), with an emphasis on housing affordability. In second place for urban planners but popular with suburban commuters is free or inexpensive parking near rail or bus transit centers, known as park-and-ride (PnR). Sometimes, TOD and PnR are combined in the same development. Public policy seeks to gain high community value from both of these land uses, and there is public interest in understanding the circumstances and locations where one of these two uses should be emphasized over the other. Multiple justifications for each are offered in the professional literature and reviewed in this report. Fundamental to the strategic decision making necessary to allocate public resources toward one use or the other is a determination of the degree to which each approach generates transit ridership. In the research reported here, econometric analysis of GIS data for transit stops, PnR locations, and residential density was employed to measure their influence on transit boardings for samples of transit stops at the main transit agencies in Seattle, Los Angeles, and San José. Results from all three cities indicate that adding 100 parking spaces close to a transit stop has a larger marginal impact than adding 100 housing units. Previous academic research estimating the higher ridership generation per floor area of PnR compared to multi-family TOD housing makes this show of strength for parking an expected finding. At the same time, this report reviews several common public policy justifications for TOD as a preferred land development emphasis near transit stations, such as revenue generation for the transit agency and providing a location for below-market affordable housing where occupants do not need to have a car. If increasing ridership is important for a transit agency, then parking for customers who want to drive to a station is an important option. There may also be additional benefits for park-and-ride in responding to the ongoing pandemic.
