▼ This thesis examines the Housing First (HF) approach to ending homelessness in Alberta, with a focus on how it has been constrained by shortages of affordable housing. It reports on qualitative multiple case study research centred on three cities that have adopted the Ten Year Plan to End Homelessness policy model: Edmonton, Calgary and Medicine Hat. The objectives of this research were: (1) To assess if constraints on the supply of affordable housing in Alberta influence the ability of HF programs to follow through on key HF principles, such as client choice; (2) To evaluate how constraints on Alberta’s affordable housing supply influence the long-term housing sustainability of clients in HF programs; and (3) To determine progress towards the policy goal of ending homelessness in Alberta by 2019. The research draws on in-person interviews with 48 participants (29 service providers and 19 service users) in the case study cities, conducted between July 2014 and January 2015. Analysis of interview data used the ‘framework’ approach, which was specifically developed for applied policy research. Through a five-step analytic process, a series of themes emerged out of participants’ accounts of HF, affordable housing and homelessness in Alberta. Four key findings can be drawn from this research. First, HF in principle and practice in Alberta is characterized by a high degree of ambiguity. Although some programs shared guiding principles or program structures, service providers’ conceptions of HF and understandings of the HF model varied widely. Service users’ experiences with HF were equally variable, with major differences in the types and duration of services received. Second, housing market characteristics, chiefly low vacancy rates and a limited supply of affordable housing, were a major influencing factor on the operation of HF programs in Edmonton and Calgary, and to a lesser extent Medicine Hat. Despite challenges, service providers demonstrated that barriers could be overcome by means of strategies such as developing positive relationships with landlords. In some cases, the constraints imposed by the housing market created competing demands and forced service providers to prioritize certain HF principles (such as client choice) at the expense of others (such as rapid housing). Third, constraints on the supply of affordable housing in Alberta undermine the long-term housing sustainability of HF program participants. The market context creates a situation in which rental subsidies are almost always necessary for HF clients to afford housing costs. In addition, when clients ‘graduate’ from HF programs, they may struggle to retain housing without ongoing financial supports. Housing unaffordability continues to generate new cases of homelessness, and many housed service users in this study were at risk of homelessness. Finally, despite a large investment in HF at the municipal, provincial and federal levels, key parts of a comprehensive approach to ending homelessness continue to fall short. There remains a critical…

▼ Vancouver’s persisting housing crisis has decoupled dwelling prices from local income through persistent capital investment oriented dwelling typologies and restrictions on land availability. Vancouver, as one of the first North American cities to reach a post-sprawl condition, must correct policy and land use to acknowledge changes in dwelling preferences, demographics, and land value to provide a new mass housing strategy. Once contradictory policy is aligned to affordable housing values, the thesis proposes a housing framework for the private sector to profitably build dwellings suitable for a range of local incomes. The framework targets Vancouver’s most prominent, repetitive, and artificially underused land, its low density house neighbourhoods, to resurrect a middle density housing typology to respectfully transition neighbourhoods to affordable dwellings. Using a three pronged approach of neighbourhood improvement, flexible design for occupant control, and a focus on sharing, dwellings are drastically reduced in cost due to efficient space and material planning while simultaneously increasing living benefits to building inhabitants and its existing neighbours. Traditional thresholds at the dwelling and building scales are reimagined to support smaller living spaces and urban development in established neighbourhoods that create new co-dependent beneficial relationships and dynamically mitigate frictions, rather than eliminate them altogether. Ultimately, the framework provokes a wave of disruption in the housing market in response to current crisis conditions by making living more communal, shifting the focus from investment to human capital and by reinstating affordability as a key facet in the living standard formula governing housing design. The framework is an insurgent force that provides affordable housing through the private sector despite distorted high property costs, using existing property and economic mechanisms to create an alternative competitive affordable housing type. It is also an insurgency within the built fabric of the city, inserting itself within established neighbourhoods currently fortified against change and in progressing ideas of co-living and participatory design. Overtime, efforts to improve neighbourhoods for existing residents, putting people first, and creating a sustainable growth strategy capable of housing new residents for the long term, it is the ambition of this proposal to eventually reach a critical mass to reduce housing prices for all dwellings to restore affordability within the entire city.

▼ Low income levels and high unemployment rates in rural communities in the United States limit the ability of their members to access quality housing. These communities are restricted to manufactured housing methods, which have a low initial cost but are not durable or energy efficient, and thus incur high operation and maintenance costs. Moreover, being an imported solution, manufactured housing makes limited use of local labor and resources, in communities where employment and economic growth are greatly needed. Current trends in housing construction are demonstrating the long-term benefits of sustainable or “green” housing projects. At the same time, innovations in housing construction are promoting a quicker and more efficient delivery process, without compromising affordability or quality. However, sustainable housing solutions and housing innovations are still not available in low-income rural communities. Therefore, an effective integration of these technologies into a construction strategy, which optimizes prefabrication and local labor utilization, is required to develop better homes and create jobs in the communities themselves. With these considerations in mind, this research evaluates the feasibility of a hybrid "prefabricated / site-built” strategy that combines the economies of manufactured housing processes with the economic benefits of localized material choices and job creation. The study aims to identify the attributes of a hybrid strategy that can be replicated for large-scale implementation in low-income rural communities. The strategy includes a prefabricated technical core and a site-built envelope. The prefabrication of the core employs effectively scarce skilled labor in a mass production environment. On the other hand, the site-built envelope employs local unskilled labor, panelized systems or indigenous building methods, locally appropriate materials of high mass, and volunteer assistance, and is customized to meet occupants’ requirements. The study evaluated the design and construction of an affordable prototype home designed for a target low-income rural community: the Northern Cheyenne reservation. The research includes a rigorous economic analysis of the prototype home itself, and the new hybrid construction strategy. The results are intended to promote a clear understanding of the potential for sustainable housing to provide means for community development within low-income communities. By addressing simultaneously the environmental, social and economic considerations of sustainable housing, it is hoped that this research provides incentive for the construction of additional sustainable homes in these regions, in turn stimulating job creation, business opportunities, and economic growth.

▼ This thesis is a specific research of the south side of the transborder region of San Diego/Tijuana and its drastic housing deficit caused by continuous migration and uncontrollable population growth. Together, the city of Tijuana in the Mexican side and the city of San Diego in the American side conform the largest urban agglomeration that borders this two countries. Focusing on a thorough understanding and critical aproach of Tijuana’s historical spatial planing and its consequential housing developments, the research aims to prove how border industrialization and contemporary housing policies have promoted the uncontrollable and unsustainable dispersed urban growth responsible for the dramatic spatial and social divisions that are represented in the morphology of the city. Using this critical analysis and projecting into the city’s immediate future in regards to its housing development, the thesis will give answers to the following inquiries: How the socio-economic trends have affected the inner city? Why are the disadvantage citizens marginalized in the periphery while the inner city has the capacity of further densification? What are the strategies to return or encroach upon the inner city in order to increase the housing stock in a sustainable way? Finally, seeking through mapping, design, planning, organization and evaluation, an alternative urban strategy is given for affordable housing that provides increased urban integration, greater densification and social cohabitation while promoting a needed urban regeneration tactic for the highly deteriorated fabric of the center of Tijuana. The problematic of this specific case exist in many undeveloped countries around the world, where the cities are not capable to cope with the phenomenon of migration, nevertheless the nature of Tijuana is much more complex due to its dialectic environment and its closeness and attraction with the first world. The thesis is submerged in this context and deal with the a gap between the citizens and the right to the city and to proper housing.

▼ Housing Partnerships (HPs) are collaborative arrangements that assist communities in the delivery of affordable housing by combining the strengths of the public and private sectors. They emerged in several states, counties, and cities in the eighties as innovative solutions to the challenges in affordable housing resulting from changing dynamics of delivery and production. My study examines HPs with particular emphasis upon the identification of those factors associated with the successful performance of their mission of affordable housing. I will use the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) framework in this study. The identification of performance factors facilitates a better understanding of how HPs can be successful in achieving their mission. The identification of performance factors is significant in the context of the current economic environment because HPs can be viewed as innovative institutional mechanisms in the provision of affordable housing. The present study uses a mixed methods research approach, drawing on data from the IRS Form 990 tax returns, a survey of the chief executives of HPs, and other secondary sources. The data analysis is framed according to the four perspectives of BSC: the financial, customer, internal business, and learning and growth. Financially, revenue diversification affects the financial health of HPs and overall performance. Although HPs depend on private and government funding, they also depend on service fees to carry out their mission. From a customer perspective, the HPs mainly serve low and moderate income households, although some serve specific groups such as seniors, homeless, veterans, and victims of domestic violence. From an internal business perspective, HPs’ programs are oriented toward affordable housing needs, undertaking not only traditional activities such as construction, loan provision, etc., but also advocacy and educational programs. From an employee and learning growth perspective, the HPs are small in staff size, but undertake a range of activities with the help of volunteers. Every part of the HP is developed to maximize resources, knowledge, and skills in order to assist communities in the delivery of affordable housing and related needs. Overall, housing partnerships have played a key role in affordable housing despite the housing market downturn since 2006. Their expenses on affordable housing activities increased despite the decrease in their revenues. Advisors/Committee Members: Sukumar Ganapati, Meredith A. Newman, Howard Frank, Marilys R.

▼ Preserving affordable housing is becoming increasingly difficult in numerous cities in the United States experiencing shortages of affordable rental housing units. Moreover, what qualifies as “affordable” stock, and the populations such stock should be serving, are objects of perpetual debate. Over the last few decades as Austin’s housing market has ballooned and the number of cost-burdened households has grown, the affordability issue has become “dire” in the City’s own estimation. Aside from using public funds to create or preserve affordable housing, a perennial interest for policymakers in Austin and other cities experiencing affordability crises is whether, in lieu of market controls on the appreciation of housing stock and land values or the provision of more subsidized units, cities can incentivize or spur preservation of the unsubsidized affordable housing stock in the private market. The idea of establishing private equity funds fed by high net worth individuals, foundations, banks, and other institutions willing to accept a lower rate of investment return relative to typical “market” returns in order to safeguard such “workforce housing” (and by extension, workforces) has recently taken root in Austin and across the country. Affordable Central Texas (ACT), a non-profit organization, recently formed in Austin as a collaborative effort of numerous groups and summits that have focused on “workforce housing” preservation over the past roughly eight years in Austin. Following a broad literature review examining the national housing crisis and situating this new model of “housing preservation” in a spectrum of political ideologies that govern housing policy, this report evaluates the activities of ACT in relation to Austin’s housing needs and distills recommendations gleaned from interviews with numerous fund managers and public officials related to property management, subsidies and rental assistance, public-private partnerships, and using more accurate housing-related nomenclature. This report ultimately argues for the necessity of placing policy interventions in housing markets in their proper ideological contexts and resituating housing as first and foremost a site of shelter rather than primarily a vehicle for investment and economic growth.

▼ Accessibility to housing for low to moderate income groups in Australia has been experiencing a severe decline since 2001. On the supply side, the public sector has been reducing its commitment to the direct provision of public housing. Despite high demand for affordable housing, there has been limited supply generated by non-government housing providers. One possible solution to promote an increase in affordable housing supply, like other infrastructure, is through the development of multi-stakeholder partnerships and private financing. This research aims to identify current issues underlying decision-making criteria for building multi-stakeholder partnerships to deliver affordable housing projects. It also investigates strategies for minimising risk and ensuring the financial outcomes of these partnership arrangements. A mix of qualitative in-depth interviews and quantitative surveys has been used as the main method to explore stakeholder experiences regarding their involvement in partnership arrangements in the affordable housing sector in Queensland. Two sets of interviews were conducted following an exploratory pilot study: one set in 2003-2004 and the other in 2007-2008. There were nineteen respondents representing government, private and not-for-profit organisations in the first stage interviews and surveys. The second stage interviews were focussed on twenty-two housing providers in South East Queensland. Initial analyses have been conducted using thematic and statistical analyses. This study extends the use of existing decision making tools and combines the use of a Soft System Framework to analyse the ideal state questionnaires using qualitative thematic analysis. Soft System Methodology (SSM) has been used to analyse this unstructured complex problem by using systematic thinking to develop a conceptual model and carrying it to the real world situations to solve the problem. This research found that the diversity of stakeholder capability and their level of risk acceptance will allow partnerships to develop the best synergies and a degree of collaboration which achieves the required financial return within acceptable risk parameters. However, some of the negativity attached to future commitment to such partnerships has been found to be the anticipation of a worse outcome than that expected from independent action. Many interviewees agree that housing providers' fear of financial risk and community rejection has been central to dampening their enthusiasm for entering such investment projects. The creation of a mixed-use development structure will mitigate both risk and return as the commercial income will subsidise the affordable housing development and will normalise concentration of marginalised low-income people who live in a prime location with an award winning design. In addition, tenant support schemes and rent-to-buy incentive programs will encourage them to secure their tenancies and significantly reduce the risk of rent arrears and property damage. There is also a breakthrough investment vehicle…

▼ The latent success or failure of a public housing project may be the product of dozens of factors. With myriad socio-economic forces at play, the role of design is often marginalized. However, when looking back at the history of public housing it is clear that architecture and planning have had a strong influence on the outcomes of public housing. “To suggest, as some have, that ‘in reality, the architect faces only marginal aesthetic choices’ is to be lacking in the most fundamental knowledge of available choices” (Newman, 1975). Isolation and social stigmatization are significant factors that contribute to the failure of metropolitan housing projects. As public opinion towards residents and social programs shift, isolating design features of projects become physical manifestations of stigmatization, leaving socio-economic and cultural scars not only on the residents of projects, but of entire neighborhoods and cities. How does the spatial design of housing projects ameliorate or exacerbate the social stigma and physical isolation endemic to urban poverty in America? This paper analyzes the connections between public housing design standards, housing policy, and architectural ideologies that contributed to the predominant design typologies found in public housing. In order to determine how the design of past housing projects has contributed to successes or failures, case studies are analyzed by using past literature to create a framework of factors essential to successful urban and housing design. This framework consists of four main physical characteristics of successful urban design: urban density, security, legibility, and diversity. Applied to multiple case studies, this framework allows for comparison across different iterations of public housing design. The goal of this research is to explore correlations between public housing design and socio-cultural and economic outcomes, examining the intrinsic value in design and policy choices made for public housing.

▼ With house prices rising so rapidly, many New Zealand families find the stretch to homeownership beyond them. It is now customary to hear of people unable to purchase a property for their needs, in relation to the size of the house, its location or both and the idea of homeownership is fast becoming a pipeline dream for most people. With large upfront costs and large mortgage repayments, the cost of purchasing or building a house is unaffordable for a growing number of the population (Aravena & Lacobelli, 2012; Michael Bassett, 2013). Affordability is a broad notion but in essence, this research portfolio addresses it as the concern for accessibility of New Zealanders to put a roof over their heads. The crux of this issue is the relatively high cost to purchase a place to call home, making housing a commodity to enrich a few. An alternative solution to building and financing a home is needed. This research portfolio questions how flexible design and incremental construction approaches can be applied to a range of sites typical to the New Zealand context, providing an alternative housing solution that addresses housing affordability. This alternative housing solution demonstrates flexible design and incremental construction tactics derived from the comparative and critical analysis of literature and precedence. These tactics are demonstrated through the design of four typologies that accommodate the users changing needs and financial circumstances. Housing affordability has been addressed by the consideration of these flexible design and incremental construction tactics to allow for incremental investment. As the users, financial circumstances increase or change, the design and construction of their dwelling allows them to make changes easily. This reduces the need for major construction work in order to change the layout and use and it easily allows for the opportunity to expand when the money becomes available. It also averts the necessity to move which in the current property market is costly in terms of finances and time. To address the aims of this research portfolio, this alternative housing solution inverts the typical process of building and financing a home. It responds effortlessly to the occupant’s requirements, however varied. Incorporating flexible design and incremental construction tactics allows for incremental change and incremental investment over the lifetime of the building. At times when a lack of supply has resulted in rampant price increases, we need to question why, would one build a house that takes a great amount of time, money and effort to construct but so quickly becomes redundant? A dwelling, therefore, shouldn’t be a product. A dwelling should be an ongoing process. Advisors/Committee Members: Pelosi, Antony.

The effort to provide affordable housing, reduce construction waste and increase productivity has led to the adaptation of the concept of ‘Lean Construction’. Assessing and implementing the techniques of the lean philosophy has become key for organizations in the industry of construction in the quest for incessant improvements. The challenges faced in the implementation of the government of Ghana’s affordable housing scheme coupled with the challenges in embracing and implementing the Lean Construction Concept is the main problem for this study. Consequently, the study identifies and assesses the enablers of lean construction with respect to the execution of Affordable Housing Schemes in the Ghanaian setting. The research objectives are to assess the perception of stakeholders on the concept of Affordable Housing, identify the potential barriers to the application of the Lean Construction Concept in Ghana and to identify the Enablers or Drivers of Lean Construction Concept in Affordable Housing Schemes in Ghana. A quantitative approach of data analysis involving an exploratory method of investigation was utilized in this study. A comprehensive review of literature together with questionnaire survey was undertaken among professionals in the construction industry of Ghana. The data collected were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences Software (SPSS v20.0) using factor analysis; Kaiser Meyer Olkin test, Bartlette’s test of Sphericity to test the reliability and adequacy of the sample of factors studied. The potential barriers to the application of lean construction were identified and were laid open to factor analysis, which yielded three (3) categories of critical barriers considered as management related, construction related as well as design related barriers. The enablers for implementing lean construction in Affordable Housing were classified into four (4) main headings, namely; Organizational Culture factors; Relational factors; Leadership and Management factors; as well as Resource, Skills and Expertise factors. In addition, the benefits of implementation of lean construction identified in literature were grouped into environmental, social and economic benefits. The research further revealed that the most significant barrier is ‘Lack of Awareness and training’, and the most significant enablers are ‘Business Plan and Vision, Management Commitment and Support’. Furthermore, the analysis derived from the questionnaire survey concluded that there are still greater number of construction stakeholders who are not aware of the Lean Construction philosophy. In addition, professionals in the built environment per the survey generally agree that Lean Construction would be beneficial to the Affordable Housing Scheme in Ghana. This research contributes to the body of knowledge by identifying success factors for lean construction concept implementation in the Affordable Housing Scheme in Ghana.
