Students in Real Estate Development researched and evaluated the
feasibility of sustainable residential development types. Typologies include
cohousing, live/work, small multifamily, fourplexes, and townhouses.
Working in small groups, each research team developed a 15-20 page
report that examines a different housing type. Final reports included case
studies or precedents from other cities in similar regions and feasibility
determinations generated through data analysis and discussions with
developers, engineers, planners, and other relevant professionals. This
section highlights the main points from each of the reports.
