Dr. Thomas R. Paradise Thesis Director Dr. Noah Billig Dr. Joel Gordon Committee Member Committee Member Abstract Multidisciplinary research and philosophical discourse have long explored the complex relationship between the objective environment and subjective human perception. No two humans perceive, experience, and form attitudes about the same phenomenon in exactly the same way. Individual demographics (sex, age) and group identity (culture, religion, ethnicity, political ideology) have been shown to have a profound effect on perception of phenomena; research has also focused on the effect of the physical environment itself.

  • Retail Prices in a City*
    Retail Prices in a City Alon Eizenberg Saul Lach The Hebrew University and CEPR The Hebrew University and CEPR Merav Yiftach Israel Central Bureau of Statistics July 2017 Abstract We study grocery price differentials across neighborhoods in a large metropolitan area (the city of Jerusalem, Israel). Prices in commercial areas are persistently lower than in residential neighborhoods. We also observe substantial price variation within residential neighborhoods: retailers that operate in peripheral, non-a­ uent neighborhoods charge some of the highest prices in the city. Using CPI data on prices and neighborhood-level credit card data on expenditure patterns, we estimate a model in which households choose where to shop and how many units of a composite good to purchase. The data and the estimates are consistent with very strong spatial segmentation. Combined with a pricing equation, the demand estimates are used to simulate interventions aimed at reducing the cost of grocery shopping. We calculate the impact on the prices charged in each neighborhood and on the expected price paid by its residents - a weighted average of the prices paid at each destination, with the weights being the probabilities of shopping at each destination. Focusing on prices alone provides an incomplete picture and may even be misleading because shopping patterns change considerably. Specifically, we find that interventions that make the commercial areas more attractive and accessible yield only minor price reductions, yet expected prices decrease in a pronounced fashion. The benefits are particularly strong for residents of the peripheral, non-a­ uent neighborhoods. We thank Eyal Meharian and Irit Mishali for their invaluable help with collecting the price data and with the provision of the geographic (distance) data.

    The White City and the Sea, Tel Aviv, Israel Designs for a new vision at Tel Aviv’s Western edge: Kikar Atarim 21 January, 2019 The University of Texas at Austin ARC 560R/ARC 696, Advanced Design Studio School of Architecture Professor Kevin Alter “The essence of each city arises from an age-old alchemy, almost inexplicable and beyond Geography and recorded History, from the weight of its very materials. Echoes of cross- fertilizations transform cities slowly and gradually, or suddenly. They collide, they dissolve in the interstices of the origins, they impress us, we who drag with us other waves. All cities are my city, to which I always return.Everything is different then, because I know what is different. My eyes open to my city, I am once again an astonished stranger, capable of seeing: of doing.” Alvaro Siza “The City”, Writings on Architecture, 1997 Advanced Design, ARC 561R, ARC 696 Architecture has the capacity to extend both the physical and social faculties of those who experience it, and as such, it can also be understood as a mechanism to build the culture of a place. The practice of architecture within cultural programs is the project of a building, the project of the institution it hosts, and the project of the city it defines. Here, architecture plays a fundamental role: it is the device to expand our collective culture as well as the understanding of the place in which we live. Architects are increasingly being asked to address the urgent demands of global urban expansion and its constituencies with deft, agile designs supported by insightful research.
