Course Description

This course provides an understanding of locational processes, especially those related to business (industry, retail, office) and residential land uses by concentrating on three themes. Social diversity examines how changing demographics create changes in neighbourhood characteristics. Economic restructuring considers how economic changes impact location and make-up of economic activities. Smart growth investigates managing city growth, while still maintaining healthy environments.
