Sharing Space in a Regulated Place

Enrollment: Limited: Advance sign-up required
Sign-up by 01/08
Limited to 20 participants
Attendance: participants may attend just AM lectures, or lectures + PM workshops.

In this activity, we will look at the physical space implications and regulatory issues surrounding businesses that actively or passively associate with the “sharing economy” (e.g. Airbnb). Shifting urban demographics require a closer investigation into how different space “types” might address the needs of cities going forward. Designed to bring together academics, private businesses, think tanks, and public sector employees, this course is the beginning of a conversation about how residential models might be designed or retrofit concurrent with new zoning and emerging technologies to create broader housing opportunities in a city like Boston.
