Should our cities grow up, or out? The answer to this question is frequently debated, but at their annual conference next month the Urban Land Institute Ireland aims to make the case for density in our urban areas.
“The goal is to explore these issues against the backdrop of what has happened in other major cities and ascertain where Ireland could learn from successes and failures elsewhere,” he says.ULI Ireland chair, Tom Dunne If you do get urban areas organised with a good degree of density you don’t need cars, and public transport becomes more efficient
“In the spectrum of offerings across a city, cities will work better if there is a lot of choice of accommodation. The classic example is of the IT executive coming here to work for four or five years, who probably wants good quality accommodation but doesn’t want to buy and would rather rent. This is a vast market and they need to be provided for too.”
Start with less corruption otherwise you learn nothing.
