1.	University Employer Assisted Housing: Models of University-Community Partnership Researchers: Joseph Hoereth, Associate Director, Great Cities Institute, University of Illinois at Chicago; David Perry, Director, Great Cities Institute, University of Illinois at Chicago; Dwan Packnett, Trinity Plus One Consultants, Inc. Date(s): 7/2005 - 7/2006 This report identifies various motivations for and common models of university EAH programs. We used this identification of motivations and models as a framework for a scan of thirty-eight programs across the country. The framework was then applied to three case studies of employer assisted housing: Case Western Reserve University, the University of Chicago, and Howard University. The purpose of this analysis is to explore more deeply and critically the potential for EAH programs to not only meet the nee...
2.	University as Real Estate Developer: Leadership for 360 degree Development: Case studies: Georgia State, Georgia Tech, Morehouse College Researchers: David Perry, Director, Great Cities Institute, University of Illinois at Chicago Date(s): 7/2005 - 3/2007 This collection of case studies will describe and analyze the role of three universities where each university assumes the role of a civic leader under different contexts but plays this role within the context of a ‘single’ city, Atlanta. Georgia State University represents the role of the university as “urban planner” in developing a master plan that serves as the first land use plan in the city. Morehouse College, on the other hand, is representative of the university as “neighborhood planner” in seeking ...
3.	The Role of Urban Universities in Real Estate Development Researchers: Ziona Austrian, The Urban Center, Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs, Cleveland State University Five case studies of universities across the United States, outside of Ohio. It is expected that separate funding sources will support a survey of universities in Northeast Ohio, university case studies in Ohio, and other U.S. university case studies to complement the Lincoln Institute-supported research. We ask that you discuss the location of the five case studies with Roz in order that the five are unique from other Lincoln-sponsored cases. The research will use a common methodology for case selection...
4.	The Impact of Large Landowners on Land Markets Researchers: Raphael Bostic, Associate Professor, University of Southern California, School of Policy, Planning & Development; Chris Briem, Research Assistant, University of Pittsburgh; John Brown, Professor, Dept. of Economics, Clark University; Timothy Chapin, Assoc. Date(s): 1/2006 - 1/2007 Through a request for proposal process, the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy commissioned research papers or case studies and convened a day-long seminar focusing on large landowners. In the urban context, we have in mind landowners such as universities, religious organizations, hospitals and private companies. In the non-urban and rural context, we have in mind owners such as government, State Trust Lands found in many western states in the US, resorts, recreation parks, corporate farms, watershed areas, u...
5.	Research on Payment in Lieu of Taxation (PILOTS) Researchers: Pam Leland, Assistant Professor, University of Delaware Date(s): 7/2005 - 7/2006 This research focuses on the theory and practice of payments in lieu of taxation as it applies to universities and medical institutions. How are PILOTs negotiated and re-negotiated? What are the relevant models? How do exemptions such as PILOTs affect behavior of universities and medical institutions? How do PILOTs affect local government revenues? The research will be in the form of a policy focus report targeting practitioners at universities, medical institutions and local governments
6.	Mechanisms for Cities to Manage Real Estate Development Led by Universities and Medical Centers Researchers: Researchers: Ziona Austrian, Center for Economic Development, Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs, Cleveland State University and Jill Norton, Program Manager, Center for Economic Development, Maxine Goodman Levin College of Urban Affairs, Cleveland State University Date(s): 4/2006 - 4/2007 The Lincoln Institute of Land Policy has commissioned a research paper on “Mechanisms for Cities to Manage Real Estate Development led by Universities and Medical Centers”. The working paper will eventually be a part of a larger effort of the Lincoln Institute's research and training on the role of cities in overseeing development activities undertaken by large urban institutions such as universities, colleges and hospitals.
7.	Database on Real Estate Development Projects Researchers: Dr. Wim Wiewel Provost and Senior VP for Academic Affairs University of Baltimore Date(s): 11/2004 - 1/2006 Database on Real Estate Development Projects Dr. Wim Wiewel is putting together a database on real estate development projects by universities in distressed urban areas, focusing on projects outside (including adjacent to) traditional campus boundaries. He would welcome information about current, recent, or planned projects from anyone. Please contact Dr. Wim Wiewel at: Dr. Wim Wiewel Provost and Senior VP for Academic Affairs University of Baltimore 1420 North Charles Street Baltimore, MD 21201...
