This suggests that the economy will develop positively, but at a lower level than previous economic upswings, which many economists denote as “new normal”, or the new normal for economic upswing. The European Central Bank, ECB, will phase out the bank’s bond repurchasing program at the end of the year as there are JOSEPH ALBERTI more signs that the economy is strengthened, and inflation is closer to the bank’s goals.

COPENHAGEN AND FREDERIKSBERG RESIDENTIAL MARKET The Copenhagen and Frederiksberg residential market is constantly evolving, and it is exciting to follow regardless of where you live in Denmark, because the capital is most often the first mover in terms of pricing and other developments. It cannot be assumed that the current population growth or the residential PETER LASSEN Partner construction boom will continue in the future. Cell phone 20 45 30 53 [email protected] In this quarterly report, we take a deep dive into the residential market, focusing on the funda- mental economic factors: supply and demand, and give our take on the future of the residential market. Demand for residential real estate is primarily driven by population growth. The population in Copenhagen and Frederiksberg has grown by approximately 1,000 people a month in the years since the financial crisis. People tend to think that the present = the future. However, the reality is that population growth is dynamic and always changing, so population growth is not guaran- teed. One does not need look further back than 2005 to see a decline in population.

Rutt1 University of Copenhagen, Denmark Abstract In this article I explore how the possibilities for commoning and conviviality through small-scale urban farming initiatives intertwine with neoliberal trends. I do this by recounting the trajectory of a small rooftop garden in the city of Copenhagen, Denmark. Drawing on ethnographic research in and around this garden, I show how such communal, anti-capitalist, eco-social endeavors are thoroughly entangled in the city's neoliberal turn over recent decades. Various manifestations of neoliberalism, ranging from formalization processes to austerity pressures, articulate with convivial urban farming initiatives in contradictory and recursive relationships that both nurture and endanger these local initiatives. I describe for example how formalization engenders legitimacy but also homogenization and how green initiatives are celebrated while undermined

  • Contingency, Debate, and Pop- up 'Hygge' at Valby Pavilion
    Contingency, debate, and pop- up ‘hygge’ at Valby Pavilion: Situating temporary public urban settings in design critique Anne Margrethe Wagner Assistant professor, Architect MAA University of Copenhagen Division of Landscape Architecture and Planning/IGN Copenhagen, Denmark Abstract Public spaces emerge through a diverse field of practices and events that combine to make space and create meaning. In today’s design and planning practice, temporary interventions play an increasing role in the creation and rethinking of public space ‘on the go’. In such transitional interventions, ‘the project’ is both physically and symbolically created through entangled actions of design with somewhat non-designed and informal practices and DIY aesthetics, as well as various narratives and modes of communication. Temporary public spaces thereby challenge established ways of evaluating and critiquing spatial settings as determined design solutions or ‘classic’ architectural works—in terms of what they do and how they can be qualitatively understood as part of contemporary place-making approaches. This article forms a critique of the project Valby Pavilion, a temporary space in Valby (Copenhagen, Denmark) that serves as a test setup for the future use of its highly contested site. Through a juxtaposition of selected theoretical perspectives from art and architectural criticism to relational site thinking and performance studies, the discussion of the project elaborates upon which aspects require detailed attention when performing a critique of temporary urban public spaces. The article concludes that critical examination of a number of issues (intentionality and origin, the role of spatial adaptions, appropriation, events and situated public debate, dominant planning paradigms, and the characteristic aesthetics of the informal) helps to fruitfully locate public settings initiated under the ‘temporary project’ label within design and architectural critique.

WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, please see http://www.wpi.edu/academics/ugradstudies/project- learning.html Abstract Sponsored by Miljøpunkt Indre By, we assessed the traffic congestion and air quality in the city center of Copenhagen, Denmark. We conducted surveys with locals, interviewed experts, and conducted direct observations of the area. After analysis of the data, we evaluated the feasibility of a tunnel, explored possible alternative solutions, and offered recommendations for alleviating congestion and reducing air pollution. We found that while a tunnel would reduce air and noise pollution, it may not be effective in reducing traffic volume. Instead, we recommend discouraging car use and promoting public transportation by incorporating a light rail system, reducing lanes, implementing a park and ride system, and improving bicycle infrastructure. i Acknowledgements We would like to thank Professors Hou, Belz and Taylor for guiding us through this process. We would also like to thank our sponsors Marietta Bonnet, Dorte Heiss and Kjeld Larsen from Miljøpunkt Indre By for warmly welcoming us to Copenhagen and being our mentors.

Cities play a key role in the Green Economy but are often ‘hot beds’ of environmental & social problems as a result of dense populations. However, cities are well placed to act as catalysts for the development of new sustainable solutions to transport, water, food, energy, waste & lifestyle problems due to their public purchasing power & the existence & proximity of key role players in the innovation system. Model implementation of innovative solutions are starting to surface in a number of leading smart, sustainable cities e.g. Stockholm, New York, San Francisco & Copenhagen with significant investment from industry leaders e.g.

  • 2. Local Transport Plans and Visions There Are Five Main Plans/Visions
    2. Local Plans and Visions transport There are five main plans/visions setting goals for transport planning and actions: The Transport and Environmental Plan 2004: The overriding objective is to assure a fully functional transportation system for the city causing substantially less environmental impact than today. The plan contains an action plan on 20 initiatives. Copenhagen’s Cycle Politic 2002-2012 is the first overall action plan for the cycle conditions in the city. More cyclists, safety, speed, comfort are some of the subjects in focus. Eco-metropolis 2007: Has 4 themes and 13 measurable goals. One of the themes is Copenhagen as the World’s Best City for Cyclists. Especially important for transport is the objective saying “50 % of all people going to work or education in Copenhagen will go by bike”. CopenhagenClimate Plan 2009 contains 15 initiatives for transport and the goal is to reduce CO2-emissions from transport by 10 % from 2005 to 2015. The lighthouse initiative is electric and hydrogen cars running on wind energy. Municipal Strategy 2009: The overall objective for the modal split in Copenhagen is that for all trips ”on wheels” at least 1/3 must be by public transport, at least 1/3 by cycle and less than 1/3 by car. The key efforts of the plans for transport are The City of Cyclists Improved public transport Traffic calming and parking restrictions Environmental efforts like low emission zones, possible congestion charging and environmentally friendly vehicles The City of Cyclists The City of Copenhagen has set itself the overall goal to be the world’s best city for cyclists, and since 2007 this has set the framework for measures in the cyclist area.
