This report provides recommendations for municipal boards and officials to draw upon in order to encourage transit-supportive development (TSD) along these corridors. TSD is a land use technique that calls for focusing public and private investment into clearly defined areas where several transportation options are readily available to the people who live, work and recreate within those areas. Typically, TSD projects consist of mixed-use (some combination of residential, commercial, institutional, and recreational land uses) developments that are designed to provide their inhabitants with a range of viable transportation options. In addition to offering local boards and officials a list of recommendations for encouraging TSD projects in their municipalities, this report includes site-specific analyses of twenty-one “Nodal Points,” or key locations, along the three public transportation corridors. These Nodal Points represent regionally and locally significant residential, commercial, educational, institutional, and recreational centers of activity. This report offers several planning recommendations for each Nodal Point that, if implemented, would improve the sustainability of TSD projects in these locations. The report is organized into six chapters, with appendices at the end. The individual chapters are laid out as follows: Chapter 1, Introduction, includes a brief introduction to this report and an explanation of its development and background. The introduction provides an overview of what this report aims to accomplish, namely the presentation of TSD planning concepts as a viable option for municipal officials and local developers. It also discusses the value of TSD concepts as a response to changing demographics and housing interests, and lastly provides an overview of the process by which the project’s Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) selected the three public transportation corridors and the Nodal Points examined in this report. Chapter 2, Transit Supportive Design (TSD): An Overview, provides a brief explanation of what Transit Supportive Design (TSD) is. It discusses the basic importance of the connection between land uses and transportation systems, the uses of built form to support pedestrian and transit use, ways in which transit can be used as an asset for communities, development/market issues and transit service, and obstacles to coordinated region-wide transit-supportive planning including automobile oriented land use patterns and municipal land use policies and regulations. This chapter is designed to provide the reader with basic background knowledge of what TSD is, what its benefits to a community are, and what some of the obstacles to implementing TSD projects may be. Chapter 3, Transit Supportive Development Guidelines, includes a detailed list of actions and recommendations that any municipality can use when revising and updating its land use plans and regulations. This chapter is organized into four sections, including a short introduction, which cover comprehensive plans, zoning codes, and design standards/guidelines. Each section consists of a list of potential revisions and considerations for local boards and officials to consider when revising and updating the local planning and regulatory documents. This chapter, the “heart” of this report, provides local boards and officials with an easy-to-use guide for TSD planning, zoning, and urban design concepts. It discusses the many ways in which TSD concepts can be integrated into comprehensive plans, and follows through with recommendations on how TSD concepts outlined in comprehensive plans can be Genesee/Finger Lakes Regional Planning Council v Optimizing Transportation Infrastructure Through Effective Land Use Opportunities for Transit Supportive Development in the Greater Rochester Area implemented

  • The Real Story Behind the Cmbx.6 Debunking the Next “Big Short”
    OCTOBER 2019 THE REAL STORY BEHIND THE CMBX.6 DEBUNKING THE NEXT “BIG SHORT” Brian Phillips Director—Commercial Real Estate Credit Research Kimberly Chan Research Analyst—Commercial Real Estate Credit Research Eric Goldstein, CFA Research Analyst—Commercial Real Estate Credit Research John Huang, CFA Research Analyst—Commercial Real Estate Credit Research IN THIS PAPER: The CMBX.6 has become such a popular short by speculators placing bets on mall closings that it has been profiled in the media as the next “big short.” It’s true that as many as a third of American malls won’t survive the upheaval in the retail sector. But that narrative conceals other realities. In fact, the American mall isn’t dying—it’s evolving to meet modern consumer demands. And thanks to the specific property composition of the CMBX.6, the loan losses in its collateral pool will likely be modest. As a result, returns on the CMBX.6 are likely to be far higher than short sellers expect. In this paper, we present the powerful research that illuminates our view. For institutional investor or financial representative use only. Not for inspection by, distribution or quotation to, the general public. SHINING A LIGHT ON A CONTROVERSIAL TRADE The CMBX.6. The acronym has splashed across headlines and become a source of controversy on Wall Street. It’s such a popular trade by speculators placing bets on store and mall closings that shorting the CMBX.6, a commercial real estate mortgage index, has been profiled in the media as the next “big short.” Controversy has brewed because of short sellers’ assertions that the American mall is dying and that near-term defaults and losses on the CMBX.6 loan pool will therefore be high.
