Book Description
Today, the impacts of climate change and the effort to diminish its drivers and mitigate its consequences are disrupting the global economy. Given the inherent intersection between real estate and the economy, this disruption presents unique challenges and opportunities within the field of real estate development. In fact, the real estate industry may be at an inflection point towards a more sustainable and resilient future. Yet, with change comes confusion as stakeholders across the real estate spectrum work to respond to this emerging reality. This paper provides a broad overview of the evolving landscape of real estate development in the Boston market as it relates to sustainability and the environment. Through its investigation, this paper seeks to elucidate how best-in-class developers in the Boston market are responding to these new market changes. Through this analysis, this paper endeavors to provide a contemporary high-level summary, albeit partial, of the intersection between real estate development, sustainability and environmental risk. The ultimate hope is that this work, and future investigations, will enable the sharing of best practices across the industry.

From the Puritans to the Projects
Author: Lawrence J. ValePublisher: American Mathematical Soc.

Category : History

Pages : 496
Book Description
From the almshouses of seventeenth-century Puritans to the massive housing projects of the mid-twentieth century, the struggle over housing assistance in the United States has exposed a deep-seated ambivalence about the place of the urban poor. Lawrence J. Vale's groundbreaking book is both a comprehensive institutional history of public housing in Boston and a broader examination of the nature and extent of public obligation to house socially and economically marginal Americans during the past 350 years. First, Vale highlights startling continuities both in the way housing assistance has been delivered to the American poor and in the policies used to reward the nonpoor. He traces the stormy history of the Boston Housing Authority, a saga of entrenched patronage and virulent racism tempered, and partially overcome, by the efforts of unyielding reformers. He explores the birth of public housing as a program intended to reward the upwardly mobile working poor, details its painful transformation into a system designed to cope with society's least advantaged, and questions current policy efforts aimed at returning to a system of rewards for responsible members of the working class. The troubled story of Boston public housing exposes the mixed motives and ideological complexity that have long characterized housing in America, from the Puritans to the projects.
