Abstract
The authors review evidence on the interaction between consumer response and urban design. They present empirical results from research undertaken in Belfast, in which a variety of techniques, including transportation modelling, hedonic analysis, a household survey, and stated-preference modelling, were used. Theory relating to density is discussed and applied to an inner-city redevelopment scheme. The evidence from the stated-preference analysis offers a tool which can inform not only policies, but also the promotion of sustainable development in viable locations, consistent with the business goals of property developers. The same tool can also help identify areas where intensification of land use should not be promoted. Further research developments are considered, with particular emphasis on future urban policies.
