To build or pass go?

To build or pass go? - 2005 - Estates Gazette (0516) 23 April 2005, 136-138(3) .

Seeks to determine what is the optimum level of affordable housing within a development, at a time when on-site affordable housing provision is a fact of life for private-sector residential developers in London. Examines in detail a hypothetical mixed-use development scenario with variable affordable housing requirements of 50% and 25% with the resultant amounts of affordable housing built and the total amount of housing built. Tables cover the number of viable sites, affordable housing units, the total housing delivered in private sector schemes and the optimal outcome from the range of affordable housing policies. Concludes with the arguments for and against set levels of affordable housing.
