Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Across the country, vacant lots in historic districts receive infill housing, and affordable infill housing recently emerged as a viable way to provide more affordable living solutions and bring new life to historic neighborhoods. Taking advantage of this positive trend, I analyzed seven case studies of affordable infill housing in historic districts to mine commonalities among these houses. The analysis of the design of both exterior and interior of these house led to the creation of supplemental guidelines for designing both compatible and affordable infill housing in historic districts. Specifically, I considered the following exterior and interior elements of each infill house: site and site features, form, height, proportion of street façade, window proportions and form, roof form, foundation, front entrance, porch, exterior materials, trim, square footage, number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms, number of closets, a washer and dryer, work space, and overall layout. The examination of these criteria led to the realization of several patterns contributing to the compatibility and affordability of these houses. Most prominently, all seven houses enclose less than 1,205 square feet and sit on small lots; these two ubiquitous characteristics provide the main methods of achieving affordability within this sample. Additional commonalities surfaced that contribute to affordability in addition to the sustainability and communality of these houses. This investigation expands on the positive trend of affordable infill in historic districts and accounts for the end users of affordable housing through the provision of parameters for designing affordable infill with compatible exteriors and contemporary interiors."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Book excerpt: The population of Arizona has increased rapidly in the past two decades and faces an extreme shortage of urban affordable housing to accommodate for this population growth. There are several challenges facing the implementation of affordable housing in Downtown Phoenix including low-density development, high land costs, transportation issues, the current property tax structure, and infrastructure and environmental concerns. The City of Phoenix lacks the necessary policies and programs to encourage sustainable high-density development within the urban area. There are a large number of vacant parcels in the City which have either been passed over by previous development projects, or land which remains to be used from the demolition of older buildings. With the growing need for affordable housing, it is necessary to explore the opportunity to use the vacant land within the City of Phoenix for high-density infill development to include affordable housing. How can affordable housing contribute to making Phoenix a more sustainable city? High-density development creates affordability by increasing the number of housing units available in a given area. High-density is a necessary element in the transformation towards a more sustainable city not only by increasing affordability but also in connection with access to transportation and employment and efficient use of existing infrastructure. The opportunity for an increase in affordable housing within the larger sustainable development goals of urban Phoenix creates the need for an exploration of the relationship between high-density infill housing development and sustainability.
