Over the last several months, staff has refined the six transit options and completed preliminary analysis of those options, including an evaluation of their strategic merits, an initial assessment of their economic and financial outlook, and a review of each option’s potential implementation challenges and risks.

    Advertising and Ethics 0 Advertising and Ethics: Theme and Community Segregation on Chicago’s Rapid Transit System Ava Francesca Battocchio Loyola University Chicago Author Note Ava Francesca Battocchio, School of Communication, Loyola University Chicago. This paper was supported in part by a grant from the Loyola Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program. Correspondence concerning this paper should be addressed to Ava Francesca Battocchio, School of Communication, Loyola University Chicago, 820 N. Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60611. E-mail: [email protected]. Advertising and Ethics 1 Abstract Home to the United States' second-largest public transportation system, Chicago has a long history with economic, educational, and racial disparities amongst its 77 neighborhoods. Through content analysis, this study examines and categorizes 1,048 advertisements by their community demographics such as education, income, and race, to examine theme variance within the context of residential segregation on Chicago's rapid transit rail system. Keywords: advertising, ethics, outdoor advertising, residential segregation, marketing and society, Maslow’s Hierarchy, rapid transit Advertising and Ethics 2 Advertising and Ethics: Theme and Community Segregation on Chicago’s Rapid Transit System In The Current State of Advertising Ethics: Industry and Academic Perspectives, Minette E. Drumwright and Patrick E. Murphy’s research centers around the disconnect between industry and academy in terms of the approach towards advertising ethics. From an academic position, there has been controversy in the industry's handling the social communication power that comes with advertisement creation. Some scholars, like Jerry Kirkpatrick, believe that Randian theory is the underlying foundation that drives manipulation, deception, and coercion through advertising business decisions.

  • Master Sector Plans from Tech Report
    August 2013 Purple Line – Social Effects and Land Use Planning Technical Report 3.2 Affected Environment 3.2.1 Land Use, Zoning, and Planned Development The Purple Line study area comprises a variety of urban and suburban land uses, including residential, commercial, recreational, institutional, and industrial (see Figure 18). Land use in the Montgomery County portion of the corridor is largely residential, with commercial development in Bethesda and Silver Spring. In the Prince George’s County portion of the corridor, land uses include relatively large areas of recreational, institutional, and commercial uses scattered among primarily residential communities. Housing types and densities within the study area include single-family dwellings and both low-rise and high-rise apartment buildings. Clusters of higher density mixed-use development characterize the five major activity centers of Bethesda, Silver Spring, Takoma/Langley Park, College Park, and New Carrollton. With the exception of the area surrounding the University of Maryland (UMD) campus and M Square, most of the remainder of developed land in the study area contains low to medium-density residential and commercial uses. Current zoning concentrates urban growth around activity centers to support transit oriented development (TOD). Specialized TOD zoning districts where mixed-use development is permitted are located in downtown Bethesda and in the areas around the following proposed Purple Line stations, East Campus, College Park, Annapolis Road/Glenridge, and New Carrollton (see Figure 19). The mixed-use and commercial development zoning at other proposed Purple Line station locations also would be compatible with transit stations. Zoning is directed by land use planning efforts, including the Master Plans and Sector Plans discussed in the following section.

Rapid transit systems which have been built in the modem era represent investments in a mode of transport that nearly all other political, economic, institutional, and regulatory factors have been aligned to defeat. However, construction of a rail transit network does provide the opportunity to re-orient metropolitan area development in a manner which will take advantage of the travel efficiencies afforded by this transit mode and affect regional travel behavior and quality of life.
