Infill Housing In Los Angeles: Will It Work?
What is required to make market-rate infill housing in the Los Angeles area work? The Urban Land Institute reports.
The Urban Land Institute Los Angeles District Council and the Department of Housing and Urban Development jointly sponsored a policy forum to examine the obstacles to and opportunities for market-rate infill housing in the metropolitan Los Angeles area. Thirty-five of the area's leading market-rate private and not-for-profit real estate developers, urban design/architects, financiers, market analysts, attorneys, public officials, and urban revitalization experts on infill development convened to address the issue. The participants of the forum discussed ways in which infill housing policy can play a more effective role in reducing sprawl and creating greater opportunities for housing development within urban areas, all within a "smart growth" context.
