The Secondary Retail Market - A Viable Option?, Elaine Murphy
Masters
The secondary retail market in Dublin has dramatically altered over the last four years. Indeed, the entire retail market in Dublin and countryside has witnessed a substantial upsurge in activity over the last four years. On Grafton Street retail Zone A rents are breaking £2,153 per square metre (£200 per square foot) barrier and premiums are in the region of £300,000 -£400,000.

Maine Policy Review
Since 1997 Maine has enjoyed one of the highest levels of home ownership in the country.

Yet not all of Maine families are able to achieve their dream of homeownership. Community Land Trusts (CLTs) represent an attempt to build community and solve an affordable housing problem for Maine’s low-income residents. CLTs are non-profit organizations that require the joint involvement of residents and non-residents in the housing development and management, and resale price restrictions that keep the housing affordable indefinitely.

Housing Policies In Maine: A Historical Overview, Frank O’Hara

O’Hara urges policymakers to keep these broader constructs in mind when addressing Maine’s future housing needs. As history shows, …
