Book Missing Middle Housing

Download or read book Missing Middle Housing written by Daniel G. Parolek and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, there is a tremendous mismatch between the available housing stock in the US and the housing options that people want and need. The post-WWII, auto-centric, single-family-development model no longer meets the needs of residents. Urban areas in the US are experiencing dramatically shifting household and cultural demographics and a growing demand for walkable urban living. Missing Middle Housing, a term coined by Daniel Parolek, describes the walkable, desirable, yet attainable housing that many people across the country are struggling to find. Missing Middle Housing types—such as duplexes, fourplexes, and bungalow courts—can provide options along a spectrum of affordability. In Missing Middle Housing, Parolek, an architect and urban designer, illustrates the power of these housing types to meet today’s diverse housing needs. With the benefit of beautiful full-color graphics, Parolek goes into depth about the benefits and qualities of Missing Middle Housing. The book demonstrates why more developers should be building Missing Middle Housing and defines the barriers cities need to remove to enable it to be built. Case studies of built projects show what is possible, from the Prairie Queen Neighborhood in Omaha, Nebraska to the Sonoma Wildfire Cottages, in California. A chapter from urban scholar Arthur C. Nelson uses data analysis to highlight the urgency to deliver Missing Middle Housing. Parolek proves that density is too blunt of an instrument to effectively regulate for twenty-first-century housing needs. Complete industries and systems will have to be rethought to help deliver the broad range of Missing Middle Housing needed to meet the demand, as this book shows. Whether you are a planner, architect, builder, or city leader, Missing Middle Housing will help you think differently about how to address housing needs for today’s communities.

Book excerpt: New York City's costly real estate poses housing affordability challenges for not only low- or even moderate-income households, but also for the so-called "middle class." Because New York is predominantly a renter's market, federal home ownership supports that disproportionately benefit middleto- upper income households nationally do not function as effectively here. Meanwhile, the majority of the city's subsidized housing programs primarily serve low-income households. Consequently, the middle class is increasingly priced out of the market and this vital residential base is shrinking. There is little research on middle-class loss from high-cost cities and even less on recent housing strategies for retention of this group. New York City is at the forefront of this issue with its New Housing Marketplace Plan (NHMP), intended to preserve and construct 165,000 affordable units between 2003 and 2014. With a special focus on middle-income households--including the development of Hunter's Point South (HPS) in Queens, the largest housing project conceived for this population since the 1970s--this initiative pioneers contemporary approaches to middle-class affordable housing. Through an examination of the NHMP and HPS, this thesis exposes the difficulty of subsidizing middle-income housing. It assesses the City's efforts to define an amorphous population, considers the political value of defining the "middle class" broadly, and explains who actually benefits from housing class broadly, and explains who actually benefits from housing developed for this target group. It also considers the limitations of current housing policy to address the needs of this demographic, questions what constitutes middle-class need, and considers what role the City should play in addressing it. Ultimately, this thesis concludes that much of the new "middle-class affordable housing" will likely be home to upper-middle-class households composed of singles, couples, and some small families. It asserts that this population has the means to live in New York City, but is disinclined to locate in many neighborhoods that are affordable at their income levels. The City has responded to this dilemma with affordable housing that is inclusive of an income range extending well beyond the median, and has undertaken development that transforms more neighborhoods into what this group desires. Meanwhile, true middle-class households face increasingly restricted housing options. In response to these findings, this thesis proposes a definitional narrowing of the middle-income range to more effectively target housing subsidies. It also suggests a more stringent approach to structuring the public-private partnerships that develop middle-income housing, and explores new models for future development. Inevitably, city-level policy is not sufficient to fully address systemic issues of inequality.
