Abstract

City governments have redefined their relationship to real estate development. Instead of regulating real estate ventures from a distance, many now act as coinvestors or cosponsors with private companies. City redevelopment agencies, for example, assemble land, contribute financing, and build infrastructure for private projects they want to promote. Port authorities, transportation agencies, and public land development corporations also act as codevelopers of private projects that are intended to serve a public purpose.
