The Urban Redevelopment Act proposed by the Housing and Local Government Ministry (KPKT) aims to inject new life into the city, especially into the areas deemed dilapidated and worn down. While the intention is great on paper, it has received opposition from some quarters, especially among home owners. They're against the proposal to lower the consent threshold for the redevelopment of old buildings, which is currently set at 100%. Professor Ainul Jaria Maidin joins us to unpack the conversations surrounding this act and its importance and impact to various stakeholders.

Welcome back to the Real Estate Investing School Podcast! In this Real Deal episode, Brody interviews Katie Neason about a redevelopment deal she did in downtown Bryan, Texas. The property is an 18-unit boutique apartment building, with two-thirds of the units being studio lofts and the remaining third being urban two-bedroom units. The goal of the redevelopment was to bring more heads and beds to downtown Bryan to support the local retail shops and restaurants. Katie emphasizes the importance of having a vision when approaching the city for rezoning and getting their support. She also shares her process of finding inspiration from other developments and locations. Katie discusses her experience with redevelopment projects and shares valuable insights and advice. She emphasizes the importance of aligning your vision with the city's vision and understanding the dynamics of the relationship. Katie also highlights the need to know your market and adapt your strategies accordingly. She discusses the financing and structuring of a redevelopment deal, including the use of cash, seller finance notes, and construction loans. Neason also emphasizes the importance of locking in long-term rates and having permanent financing in place before starting a project.

It has been revealed that Putrajaya is in the final stages of drafting the country's first Urban Redevelopment Act which will govern among others, how heritage buildings are preserved. This will also open up conversations on how developers might reap excessive profits at the expense of city dwellers. Datin Noraida Saludin, president of the Malaysian Institute of Planners, helps us understand what this proposed redevelopment legislation might look like. Image Credit: Shutterstock.com

Craig and Lee discuss the recent opening of a Loblaws City Market in downtown Vancouver's historic The Post building, an important addition to the city's grocery shopping availability. The store occupies a substantial 45,000 square feet on the second floor of the renovated Canada Post building, introducing a vast retail and grocery space to the area. They highlight the store's layout, including a wide array of departments such as bakery, dairy, deli, and seafood, and its strategic location near prominent city landmarks and office buildings. They delve into the challenges and opportunities presented by the store's location. Despite its impressive size and variety, the Loblaws City Market faces competition from numerous nearby grocery stores serving the densely populated downtown area. Craig and Lee discuss whether the store's location—lacking immediate residential towers—might impact its foot traffic, contrasting it with other areas of downtown Vancouver that boast higher residential densities. They speculate on the store's potential role as a destination for specific products and its appeal to office workers in the vicinity. Further, they discuss the broader implications of the store's opening for downtown Vancouver's retail landscape and urban living. They touch on the convenience of living in a downtown area with high grocery store penetration and how the new Loblaws City Market fits into this ecosystem. The conversation covers payment experiences, with a particular focus on the store's acceptance of payment methods and how this reflects on Loblaws' customer service. Overall, Craig and Lee provide insights into how the new store contributes to downtown Vancouver's convenience, retail diversity, and the ongoing evolution of urban grocery shopping. Subscribe, Rate, and Review our Retail Insider Podcast!Follow Craig:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/CraigPattersonTorontoInstagram: @craig_patterson_torontoTwitter: @RI_EICFollow Retail Insider:LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/Retail-InsiderFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/RetailInsider/Twitter: @RetailInsider_Instagram: @Retail_Insider_CanadaListen & Subscribe:Apple PodcastsSpotifyOvercastStitcherShare your thoughts!Drop us a line at Craig@Retail-Insider.com.

The City Aroused: Queer Places and Urban Redevelopment in Postwar San Francisco (University of Texas Press, 2024) by Dr. Damon Scott is a lively history of urban development and its influence on queer political identity in postwar San Francisco. By reconstructing the planning and queer history of waterfront drinking establishments, Dr. Scott shows that urban renewal was a catalyst for community organising among racially diverse operators and patrons with far-reaching implications for the national gay rights movement. Following the exclusion of suspected homosexuals from the maritime trades in West Coast ports in the early 1950s, seamen's hangouts in the city came to resemble gay bars. Local officials responded by containing the influx of gay men to a strip of bars on the central waterfront while also making plans to raze and rebuild the area. This practice ended when city redevelopment officials began acquiring land in the early 1960s. Aided by law enforcement, they put these queer social clubs out of business, replacing them with heteronormative, desexualized land uses that served larger postwar urban development goals. Dr. Scott argues that this shift from queer containment to displacement aroused a collective response among gay and transgender drinking publics who united in solidarity to secure a place in the rapidly changing urban landscape. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose forthcoming book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

"The more interaction you have with nature, the healthier you are mentally and physically." - Dan Biederman Dan Biederman is an expert in urban redevelopment, who discovered a profound love for the outdoors at a young age. He dreamed of becoming a forest ranger, but lacked the scientific background. Instead, he found himself as a systems consultant in the heart of midtown Manhattan. A chance encounter with Bryant Park, a neglected public park in New York City, led him to his true calling; transforming neglected parks into community assets. His work showcases the potential for positive change in urban spaces. If you aren't familiar with it's history, Bryant Park was once a dangerous and underutilized space. Dan combined his knowledge of business and politics and undertook the task of transforming the space. Today, Bryant Park stands as a testament to his vision of a vibrant space among the concrete jungle. That area has become a beloved sanctuary for New Yorkers and is considered one of the best small parks in the world. Dan emphasizes the importance of involving the community in the planning process of redevelopment. By listening to their preferences and needs, developers can create a programming plan that attracts people to the park. During our conversation he shares his experiences and insights into the process and impact of urban park redevelopment when revitalizing neglected public spaces. We also discuss the numerous benefits of urban parks, such as improved mental and physical health and the creation of social spaces. Dan's success in revitalizing neglected public spaces serves as inspiration for those looking to make a positive difference in their own communities. From Seattle to San Francisco, he continues his mission, revitalizing urban parks, and fostering a sense of community in the heart of the city. This is a valuable conversation for anyone interested in urban planning and community development.

It is now being designed by SHoP Architects out of New York and will incorporate more than one million square feet of retail, office, residential units, and public space.

Despite promises from politicians, nonprofits, and government agencies, Chicago's most disadvantaged neighborhoods remain plagued by poverty, failing schools, and gang activity. In Building a Better Chicago: Race and Community Resistance to Urban Redevelopment, Dr. Teresa Irene Gonzales shows us how, and why, these promises have gone unfulfilled, revealing tensions between neighborhood residents and the institutions that claim to represent them. Focusing on Little Village, the largest Mexican immigrant community in the Midwest, and Greater Englewood, a predominantly Black neighborhood, Gonzales gives us an on-the-ground look at Chicago's inner city. She shows us how philanthropists, nonprofits, and government agencies struggle for power and control—often against the interests of residents themselves—with the result of further marginalizing the communities of color they seek to help. But Gonzales also shows how these communities have advocated for themselves and demanded accountability from the politicians and agencies in their midst. Building a Better Chicago explores the many high-stakes battles taking place on the streets of Chicago, illuminating a more promising pathway to empowering communities of color in the twenty-first century. Michael O. Johnston, Ph.D. is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at William Penn University. His most recent research, “The Queen and Her Royal Court: A Content Analysis of Doing Gender at a Tulip Queen Pageant,” was published in Gender Issues Journal. He researches culture, social identity, placemaking, and media representations of social life at festivals and celebrations. He is currently working on a book titled Tug Cities: Community Media Representations of Place and Identity at a Tug of War Festival. This book is about the media representations of place and identity at an annual interstate tug of war festival where cities in two states across the Mississippi River from each other come together one week during the summer as rivals to duke it out on the rope.
