The Sustainability of Tall Building Developments: a Conceptual Framework
buildings Review The Sustainability of Tall Building Developments: A Conceptual Framework Kheir Al-Kodmany Department of Urban Planning and Policy, College of Urban Planning and Public Affairs, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60612, USA; [email protected] Received: 26 November 2017; Accepted: 3 January 2018; Published: 5 January 2018 Abstract: As cities cope with rapid population growth—adding 2.5 billion dwellers by 2050—and grapple with expansive sprawl, politicians, planners, and architects have become increasingly interested in the vertical city paradigm. This paper reviews and examines shortfalls of tall buildings found in the literature to inform future developments. The paper gathers a vast amount of fragmented criticism and concerns, and organizes them around the three pillars of sustainability: social, economic, and environmental. Mapping out the “unsustainable” aspects forms the foundation for addressing them in future research and tall building developments. Keywords: sustainability; high-rise developments; economic shortfalls; social failure; environmental problems 1. Introduction 1.1. What Is a Tall Building? There is no universally accepted definition of a “tall building”. Governments around the world differ in how they define “tall buildings”. For example, German regulations define “tall buildings” as buildings higher than 22 m (72 ft) with room for the permanent accommodation of people [1]. City officials derived this limit from the length of ladders used by the firefighters. Leicester City Council in the UK defines a tall building as any structure over 20 m/66 ft in height, and/or a building of any height that is substantially higher than the predominant height of the buildings in the surrounding area, and/or a building that would make a significant impact on the city’s skyline [2]. -

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA INVENTORY OF HISTORIC SITES ALPHABETICAL VERSION September 30, 2009 The District of Columbia Inventory of Historic Sites is the District government’s list of officially designated historic properties. Properties in the Inventory are deemed worthy of recognition and protection for their contribution to the cultural heritage of one of the nation’s most beautiful and historic cities. 2009 Inventory The D.C. Inventory originated in 1964, with 289 listings. The 2009 version of the Inventory contains more than 700 designations encompassing nearly 25,000 properties. Included in the Inventory are: 500 historic landmark designations covering more than 800 buildings 150 historic landmark designations of other structures, including parks, engineering structures, monuments, building interiors, artifacts, and archaeological sites 50 historic districts, including 28 neighborhood historic districts. Properties in the Inventory properties are protected by both local and federal historic preservation laws. The D.C. Historic Preservation Review Board (HPRB) designates properties for inclusion in the Inventory, and the D.C. Historic Preservation Office (HPO) maintains the Inventory and supporting documentation. A component of the D.C. Office of Planning, HPO is both the staff to the Review Board and the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for the District of Columbia. Searching the Inventory The 2009 version of the D.C. Inventory is presented in multiple formats for convenience. Each of these formats is available on the HPO website and may be obtained in an electronic copy. The main or thematic version of the Inventory is arranged to promote understanding of significant properties within their historic context. Designations are grouped by historical period and theme (see the Table of Contents).
