"Reimagining Cities: Disrupting the Urban Doom Loop"
Optimize Play! Valuable Insights for Optimizing City Real Estate Portfolios
I recently ran into a friend and neighbor, Christopher Leinberger. He is the Co-founder and Managing Director of Places Platform, LLC, a think tank of data-driven, forward-thinking real estate scholars. Christopher was named one of the 100 Most Influential Urbanists. He generously briefed me on his just-published project, “Reimagining Cities: Disrupting the Urban Doom Loop.”
I was enamored with their imaginative, data-driven approach to crafting a plan to break the post-pandemic “doom loop.” They optimize play!
There is an optimal real estate product portfolio for WalkUPs to optimize GDP and real estate valuations, which targets 31% living spaces (Live), 42% workplaces (Work) and 26% play spaces (Play).
Sponsored by Cushman and Wakefield, I am pleased to share this report with you. I encourage everyone to read this in-depth report on all major real estate markets in America, including Washington, D.C., and gain a valuable understanding of the importance of walk-ups. WalkUPs is the Places Lens © term for regionally significant walkable urban places
