Post-WW II Changes in North American Cities Deindustrialization Rise of service sector Shift in role of government Gentrification Urban social movements Shift to consumption-based urban cultures

How Urban Land Markets Work “Highest and best use” Competition, instability, and change Role of “speculator-developers” Role of state actors Role of housing consumers Role of finance capital Real estate agents/brokers Builders Appraiser, title companies, others

Gentrification and the “Rent-Gap” Suburban vs. inner-city investment and consequences for the inner-city The emergence of “rent-gaps” Narrowing of gaps in suburbs, widening of gaps in inner-city, make reinvestment in inner-city “rational” Changes in the nature of demand (economic restructuring, social movements, new demographics)

Example and Interlinkages: Rise of “Gay Gentrification” Expansion of job opportunities for gays and lesbians Pre-existing geography of gay/lesbian social and institutional life Tradition of link between property ownership, spatial concentration, and political-economic power Non-traditional class and cross-class conflicts and alliances
