Experts Online - Housing Policies and Neighborhood Strategies to Strengthen Weak Markets
Date Published: 11/08/2005
Author: LISC
This session highlighted two new LISC publications, Building a Better Urban Future: New Directions for Housing Policies in Weak Market Cities, written by Alan Mallach, and The Ripple Effect: Economic Impacts of Targeted Community Investments. The publications illustrate how to attract much-needed market capital to strengthen the markets in cities that have not benefited effectively from the economic boom of the past decade. Unlike their counterparts in stronger markets, these cities have faced continued population and job losses leading to dismal economic conditions.
