Book Revitalizing America s Cities

Download or read book Revitalizing America s Cities written by Michael H. Schill and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1984-06-30 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many American cities, middle and upper income people are moving into neighborhoods that had previously suffered disinvestment and decay. The new residents renovate housing, stimulate business, and contribute to the tax base. These benefits of neighborhood revitalization are, in some cases, achieved at a potentially serious cost: the displacement of existing neighborhood residents by eviction, condominium conversion, or as a result of rent increases. Revitalizing America's Cities investigates the reasons why the affluent move into revitalizing inner-city neighborhoods and the ways in which the new residents benefit the city. It also examines the resulting displaced households. Data are presented on displacement in nine revitalizing neighborhoods of five cities — the most comprehensive survey of displaced households conducted to date. The study reveals characteristics of displaced households and hardships encountered as a result of being forced from their homes. Also featured is an examination of federal, state, and local policies toward neighborhood reinvestment and displacement, including various alternative approaches for dealing with this issue.

Book Place Making Versus Place Marketing

Download or read book Place Making Versus Place Marketing written by Hsiu-Tzu Chang and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renewed attention to neighborhood commercial revitalization in the United States represents a holistic approach to neighborhood revitalization and the recognition of small business in the local economy. As tourism and real estate development become central elements in the new urban economy, these neighborhood shopping districts also carry potential utilitarian value as "sense of place" becomes an important amenity to attract visitors and potential residents. Using the Baltimore Main Streets program as a case study, this dissertation explores the increasing attention from the local government in organizing commercial revitalization activities using the "Main Street Approach". Through a mixed-method approach, this study situates the popularity of the program in the neoliberal context and examines the program implementation and potential impact. The popularity of this program in cities is built upon its four targeted areas of change--design, promotion, organization and economic restructuring-- by engaging the third sector in economic development at the very local level, primarily through historic preservation and event promotion. The program responds to the neoliberal market-oriented context where competition and self-help are essential to achieve institutional and economic efficiency. As a city-wide program, Baltimore Main Streets provides opportunities to incorporate small businesses into city's economic development agenda. By developing a Main Street typology, my research reveals the capacity to achieve full program implementation is highly shaped by the socio-economic conditions of the neighborhoods. Yet with an emphasis on historic preservation, special events, and volunteer participation, this particular approach to commercial revitalization has the potential to promote growth and "open up" neighborhoods to middle class residents and potential investors. By examining property appreciation, I found that program activities may signal that an area is ready to change and therefore boost the desirability of the neighborhood on the real estate market. To make Main Street a true place-making strategy beyond place promotion, it requires the recognition of neighborhood structural difference and allocates resource accordingly to revitalize the districts in all dimensions.
