Sifting Through the Fads and the Must-Haves
Which emerging real estate technologies will become the must-haves, and which will be the near misses? You can take your chances on a $100 doorbell, but if you are investing millions in a property or trying to run a profitable business, you cannot afford to waste resources on fads. Those two questions—what are the unintended consequences, and which technologies have staying power—are themes running throughout this special issue of Urban Land.

Welcome to Washington
The Fall issue of Urban Landis always special; it’s the biggest magazine of the year, and it always takes a deep look at the city hosting the Institute’s biggest annual event—the Fall Meeting. As this year’s meeting is in Washington, D.C.—the site of ULI’s global headquarters—this issue affords us the chance to show off some of the best places in our home city.

This Issue: Design and Interaction
Design is the language through which the built environment communicates with people. It speaks even when we are not paying attention. We receive its message as we choose to walk into a building or to pass it by, to linger or to leave, to lose ourselves in an environment or to be overly conscious of self and space. The power of such communication is what makes it so enjoyable to present design articles in Urban Land. Excellent design is fundamental to every successful project.
