The subject of driverless and even ownerless cars has the potential
to be the most disruptive technology for real estate, land use, and
parking since the invention of the elevator. This book includes new
research and economic analysis, plus a thorough review of the
current literature to pose and attempt to answer a number of
important questions about the effect that driverless vehicles may
have on land use in the United States, especially on parking.
Simons outlines the history of disruptive technologies in transport
and real estate before examining how the predicted changes brought
in by the adoption of driverless technologies and decline in car
ownership will affect our urban areas. What could we do with all
the parking areas in our cities and our homes and institutional
buildings that may no longer be required? Can they be sustainably
repurposed? Will self-driving cars become like horses, used only by
hobbyists for recreation and sport? While the focus is on parking,
the book also contains the views of real estate economists,
architects, and policymakers and is essential reading for real
estate developers and investors, transport economists, planners,
politicians, and policymakers who need to consider the implications
of a future with more driverless vehicles. Fasten your seat belt:
like it or not, driverless cars will begin to change the way we
move about our cities within ten years.
