This document discusses the economic importance of bikable and walkable places. It summarizes research showing that:
- Talented young workers increasingly seek out dense, diverse, transit-served cities and neighborhoods that are bikeable and walkable.
- As a result, many companies are choosing to locate or expand in walkable downtown areas in order to attract and retain top talent.
- Walkable cities are experiencing economic growth and increasing property values, while driving and freight transportation are declining in importance to the new knowledge-based economy.

웨버 샌드윅, 아태지역 주요도시의
소프트 파워(Soft Power) 분석 보고서 발표
글로벌 최대 규모의 PR 커뮤니케이션 기업 웨버 샌드윅(Weber Shandwick)은 아시아 태평양지역의 도시 브랜드 명성에 영향을 미치는 ‘소프트 파워(soft power)’의 중요성과 각 요소 별 기여도를 분석한 ‘인게이징 시티(Engaging Cities: the Growing Relevance of Soft Power to City Reputations in Asia Pacific)’ 보고서를 2014년 12월 11일 아▪태지역 8개 국가에서 동시에 발표하였습니다.
웨버 샌드윅이 발표한 ‘인게이징 시티’ 보고서는 서울, 동경, 방콕, 상하이, 시드니, 싱가포르, 쿠알라 룸푸르, 홍콩 총 8개의 아시아 태평양 지역의 주요 도시를 대상으로 정치, 경제, 군사력과 별개로 도시 브랜드 명성 수립에 영향을 미치는 소프트 파워 요소에 대해 분석 하였습니다. 보고서가 주목한 소프트파워 16가지 주요 요소는 관광, 식문화, 성평등, 정치, 예술과 문화, 미디어, 건축과 디자인, 스포츠, 레저, 금융, 교육, 환경, 음악, 소셜 미디어, 생활 수준 등을 아우르고 있습니다.
웨버 샌드윅은 자매사인 KRC 리서치와 공동으로 총 4,147명의 8개 대상 도시 거주민에게 온라인 설문을 진행했으며, 총 20명의 미디어, 디자인, 건축, 문화, 유통, 스포츠 등 다양한 분야의 전문가 20명과 심층 인터뷰를 토대로 리포트를 완성 하였습니다.
해당 ‘인게이징 시티’ 보고서는 도시 별 명성에 영향을 주는 소프트 파워 요소 5가지로 독자성(Identity), 지역색(Neighbourhoods), 시민의 자부심(Citizen Advocacy), 창의력(The Creative Classes) 그리고 민중의 힘(People Power)를 꼽았습니다.
1. 독자성 (Identity)
강력한 국가 브랜드 파워가 오히려 도시만의 독자적인 명성 구축에 도움이 방해가 될 수 있다. 도시가 계획하는 명성을 성공적으로 구축하기 위해서는 국가 브랜드 파워 요소와 해당 도시만의 지역적 독자성 간의 균형을 유지하는 것이다.
2. 지역색 (Neighbourhoods)
특정 지역의 거주자와 비거주자 모두에게 영향을 주는 다양하고 독특한 문화적 요소들을 뜻하는 지역색은 도시만의 색깔이 가장 잘 드러나며, 사람들이 지역적 성향과 상응하는 특징적 요소들을 직접 보고 경험할 수 있는 요소다. 사람들의 관심을 높이고, 개인적인 연관성을 키울 수 있는 지역색은 도시만의 특별한 색깔의 명성을 구축하는데 도움이 될 것이다.
3. 시민의 자부심 (Citizen Advocacy)
이번 리포트에서 조사한 8개의 도시의 거주 시민 모두는 자신들이 속한 도시에 대해 비거주자에 비해 소프트 파워 요소 별로 특징에 높은 점수를 주었다. 본인이 거주하
Die Engaging Cities Studie untersucht die Reputation von acht Städten im Asia-Pacific-Raum, wie Marken und Führungsverantwortliche diesen Ruf im In- und Ausland weiter ausbauen können und warum es immer wichtiger wird, sich auf den Auf- und Ausbau der städtischen Reputation zu konzentrieren.
Jednym z najistotniejszych czynników w kreowaniu reputacji miast jest tzw. „miękka władza” (ang. soft power), czyli reputacja danego miasta nieuwzględniająca prowadzonej polityki, poziomu ekonomii czy ilości organów porządku i bezpieczeństwa publicznego.

JLL's City Momentum Index 2017
The City Momentum Index tracks the speed of change of a city's economy and commercial real estate market, identifying those cities that have the most dynamic attributes over the short and long term. The Index covers 134 major established and emerging business hubs across the globe. 42 elements of a city’s dynamism are covered, which are grouped into three main sub-indices; socio-economic momentum, commercial real estate momentum and high-value incubators. For more information, please visit www.jll.com/cities-research/City-Momentum
Covering 120 major established and emerging business hubs across the globe, the Index measures a city’s short-term socio-economic and commercial real estate momentum (over a three-year horizon) in combination with measures of ‘future-proofing’ – whether a city has the essential ingredients to ensure longer-term sustainable momentum.
In our latest research, we identify the characteristics of the Top 20 Cities in the City Momentum Index, many of which are building innovation-oriented economies and implementing transformative infrastructure and real estate projects that are contributing to their momentum and providing crucial competitive advantage.

This is JLL’s second annual City Momentum Index (CMI), which tracks the speed of change of a city’s economic base and its commercial real estate market.

Covering 120 major established and emerging business hubs across the globe, the City Momentum Index gauges a city’s short-term socio-economic and commercial real estate momentum (over a three-year horizon) in combination with measures of ‘future-proofing’ – whether a city has the essential ingredients to ensure longer-term sustainable momentum.
The Index is unique in that it captures the dynamics of a city’s real estate market – its rates of construction and absorption, price movement and the attraction of a city’s built environment for cross-border capital.
In producing this Index, JLL’s intention is to alert the market to signals of change and to highlight the characteristics of city success. It does not necessarily hold that those cities at the top of the CMI will provide the strongest future performance of commercial real estate, or the most immediately attractive real estate investment environments, but rather that they are the cities where change is occurring fastest and are the ones to be closely monitored. Strong momentum can pose both opportunity and risk.

Downtown Cleveland Trends & InspirationSeventh Hill
Presentation slides on downtown trends and inspiration created by Progressive Urban Management Associates (P.U.M.A.) for the first STEP UP DOWNTOWN public meeting on March 18, 2014.
The purpose of this report is to take 50 of the world’s most prominent cities and look at how viable they are as places to live, their environmental impact, their financial stability, and how these elements complement one another.
All 50 of these brilliantly different cities are in various stages of evolution – some being further along the sustainability journey than others. Each possesses its own geolocation and cultural distinctions but shares common urban challenges in the areas of job creation, mobility, resiliency and improving the quality of life of its residents.
