Abstract:

Uncertainty of spillover effects (including property devaluation) from proposed land-use change elicits opposition to local development and hinders cities to implement densification land-use policy. In this context, I review how existing 3D Computer-Aided-Design (3DCAD) is used to systematically generate and evaluate building-specific design performance and how this process can be co-opted to infer a design's location-based amenity value. Connecting 3DCAD-based evaluations of building-specific visual landscape quality with financial market data, I present an integrated approach to predict the property value at risk due to newly-proposed development. Finally, I illustrate how a global assessment of the at-risk building stock allows cities and developers alike to mitigate development-associated spillover effects.
