The Urban Real Estate Game: Playing Monopoly With Real Money. Feagin, J. R. Prentice Hall, Inc., Englewood Cliffs, NJ, 1983. abstract bibtex A study of the influence of corporate investment \& industrial location decision making on US urban development (UD), in 10 Chpts, with an author's Preface. (1) Cities in Conflict highlights the class conflict aspect of large scale UD, \& describes the government's attitude, several powerful real estate (RE) capitalists, \& the land as commodity concept. (2) "We Have to Close the Plant": Corporate Location Decisions examines the capital flight phenomenon, location decision criteria, historical UD trends, \& governmental business subsidization. (3) Developers, Bankers, and Speculators presents an overview of the develoment business \& the complex financial arrangements that make it possible, concluding that the system leads to resource use for luxury rather than for more basic societal needs. (4) The Manhattanization of America reviews cycles in office construction, development financing, the negative effects of high rise buildings, \& the urban multiple use development phenomenon. (5) Beckoning the Affluent Back: Redeveloping Central Cities reveals the uneven nature of capitalist UD, the social costs of gentrification \& other forms of household displacement, \& the mechanics of central city UD decisionmaking. (6) "Rites of Way": Autos, Highways, and City Decentralization examines the US mass transit situation, the primacy of the automobile, \& the role played by government roadbuilding subsidies. (7) The "Malling" of America: Shopping Centers and Industrial Parks profiles the urban decentralization effects of mall \& industrial park developments, \& citizens' campaigns to halt such developments. (8) Ticky Tacky Houses: Suburban Residential Development depicts suburban tract developers, relevant government policy, irresponsible building in areas prone to natural disaster, \& the myths of consumer sovereignty \& homeownership. (9) The Growth Coalition: Politicians, Developers, and Allied Capitalists explores government urban renewal policy, the government developer coalition, zoning law trends, \& urban fiscal crisis. (10) The People Versus the Developers: Democratizing Urban Development treats the housing shortage, capital availability for high income housing, citizens' protest efforts, urban planners' lack of influence for socially needed development, \& proposes the public balance sheet as a means for recognizing the social costs of development \& effecting economic democracy. 1 Exhibit.
