The document discusses how the State of Place method can be used to quantify walkability and its relationship to economic outcomes. It describes how the State of Place index measures various dimensions of the built environment and uses these measurements to predict returns on investment from improvements to increase walkability. The results can help prioritize interventions and maximize benefits while balancing costs.
Why Walking and Walkability? The Latest Info to Make the Case

How Citizens Can Make a Difference in Defining and Achieving WalkabilityBarry Wellar
Workshop on how citizens can strategically and tactically leverage scarce resources to most effectively influence the regard given to walkability in the policies, programs, plans and associated legal and administrative documents of local governments and their agencies.
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Walkability in ChinaState of Place
China is experiencing unprecedented rates of urbanization that has augmented economic growth, but also increased obesity, pollution, and chronic diseases that pose serious public health, environmental, and economic challenges. Unsustainable development patterns contribute to these consequences. How can we best mitigate the negative impacts of such rapid urbanization? In the West, the built environment is known to impact walkability and “health.” How is China’s built environment impacting walkability? What is its current “State of Place?” This presentation will share preliminary findings from my Fulbright work on walkability in Shanghai and explore best practices for developing sustainable and healthy places.
Improving Houston's State of Place: The Economic Case for Making Houston more...State of Place
Dr. Alfonzo’s presentation will describe how State of Place, an urban data analytics platform helps both public and private entities understand how to make economic investments in walkability that will pay off in the marketplace.
Walkability is increasingly tied to both emerging market preferences and business success. Some 80% of Millenials want to live in walkable places and in 2011 58% of venture capital in the Top 5 U.S. markets went to firms located in walkable areas.
Yet walkability seems out of reach in many American cities – especially Houston. Two key barriers account for this difficulty. First, stakeholders often lack mechanisms by which to identify the most effective interventions or investments, especially in light of fiscal constraints. Second, and perhaps more pressing, stakeholders find it difficult to communicate and justify the benefits – especially economic benefits – of walkability.
Dr. Alfonzo’s presentation will show how data-driven storytelling can pave the road for people-first urban design, even in face of auto-dominated landscapes like Houston.
Walkability best practices are initiatives and activities that most effectively contribute to increasing the number and frequency of work, recreation, shopping, school, fitness, and other walking trips, increasing the walk share of all people trips made in a community, and improving the safety, comfort, convenience, and well-being experience of walking throughout a community.This workshop presentation presents a number of best practices, and suggests how citizens can organize their resources to promote achieving these practices in their communities.
This presentation on Walkability is for a upcoming seminar/charrette hosted by the Town of Collierville, Tn. There is a particular focus on block design as one of the key components of a wlakable neighborhood.

Beyond Mobility: Corridor Planning for the Bigger Picture AICP CM 1.5
Transit can do more than move people and generate revenue. More and more, cities are investing in transit to transform their communities and deliver on more expansive city-building objectives. Traditional transit goals are expanding to address the promise of livable communities, environmental stewardship, economic development and improved public health. Hear how two cities -- Seattle and Portland -- are shaping development scale and character with transit investment. Both cities are using parcel-based, pro forma-based tools to quantify the potential impact of transit projects. Join us for an interactive discussion about the capabilities and limitations of these tools. Hear their stories and learn how to evaluate your own projects against a broader set of goals using technical and market-based analysis.

Customer behaviors are changing. Expectations are shifting. Today’s marketing communication buyers are looking to their traditional communications partners for new tools and channels that deliver on the promise of Cross-Media communications.
User Experience has a direct impact on your bottom line, and it’s about time we start telling execs in their own language. I’m sure many of you spend a good amount of time evangelizing what it is that you do, and the value it adds. Over the past 15 years I’ve introduced User Experience to everyone from CEOs to developers — using storytelling, metrics, and case studies you can prove without a doubt the value that you bring.
In this talk I’ll explain what metrics to track, how to position your work, and stories where User Experience directly effected the bottom line.

Improving China's State of Place: Why the Path Toward a Sustainable China is ...State of Place
Walkability – or the ability to conveniently, safely, comfortably, and pleasurably walk to everyday needs and amenities – has been increasingly tied to improved health, broadly defined to include not just physical and mental health, but also social, community, environmental and even fiscal health. While the US and other Western countries have begun to make strides to increase walkability and promote
healthy placemaking, China continues to push forward car-centric urbanization and along with it rising rates of obesity, diabetes, cancer, and air pollution. Yet China has a huge opportunity - over 50 new cities, each with populations of over 1 million people, will be built in the next 20 years. This presentation outlines how walkability is tied to the broad concept of health and identifies the key physical, socio-cultural and policy barriers that must be addressed in order to move toward more sustainable development that promotes livability and walkability, thereby enhancing the State – and health – of Chinese cities.

The Return on Place: How to Boost Long Island's State of PlaceState of Place
By now, it's well known that walkability is no longer a luxury, but a key to economic development. The question now is, how do we get walkable and what's the potential ROI? This presentation shows how Long Island can once again become a destination by using State of Place to identify optimal interventions and investments that will not only boost walkability but its ROI.
Learn how State of Place State, more than just a walkability index, makes it easier for public and private stakeholders to make strategic economic and placemaking decisions, reduces investment risk, and sets a foundation for an effective and transparent public process.

“Places” have become products
Their “sellers” compete with each other for resources
Educated residents

Americans are choosing which locations to “consume”
based on place quality
walkability is an important “driver”…
15. But…shortage of walkability?
Public policy hurdles +
Legal issues +

Lack of benchmarks and metrics
= More difficult to finance/underwrite/create/deliver
Lack effective, cost efficient methods that demystify the
process of identifying, differentiating, and creating the quality
places people want

AND in light of sustainability benefits,
walkability
is no longer an “intangible luxury”
