Use modeled buildings in scenarios
Evaluate scenarios• Housing and Jobs: mix and density• Jobs-housing balance• Land consumption• Impervious surface• Green space• Housing affordability• Energy and water usage• Water, solid and carbon waste
production• Transportation: travel mode choice,
vehicle miles traveled• Fiscal impact: local revenue and
infrastructure costs• Balanced Housing Index
Green Infrastructure Tools
Green Infrastructure Tools
Example: Urban Redevelopment
Questions: • Is the project financially feasible? • Will it provide benefits that will promote
the project?
Example: Urban Redevelopment
Model Inputs: 750 sq. ft. unit size Actual acquisition cost$100/sq. ft. residential const. costs$120/sq. ft. retail const. costs$1.15 residential rent/sq. ft.$16 retail rent/sq. ft.$15.50 office rent/sq. ft.
Model outputs: 3.6% return, unsubsidized
Example: Urban Redevelopment
Results: • The population doubled.• The housing mix is more diverse.• Employment increased from 644 to
1,560.• VMT decreased.• Energy use decreased.• CO2 emissions were cut in half.• Water use decreased.
Example: Infill Apartments
Questions: • Is the project financially
feasible? • Will it provide benefits
that will promote the project?
• What subsidies should the city offer to make the project feasible?
Example: Infill Apartments
