How can high-density built environments and volumetric urban design be measured？
Our latest paper in Environment and Planning B proposed a transferable approach to measure volumetric urban design elements of transit-oriented development in Hong Kong. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

Our trams session explored how tram systems can boost connectivity and regenerate communities at #BetterTransportConference25.
Key insights:
1. Put housing where transport is, not the other way around.

Thanks for the invitation by @CityPlusNetwork, I am excited to give a talk regarding causal effects of transport infrastructure intervention in China on May 18 (Beijing time). All are welcome.

As part of the visiting journey at UCLA, it is my honor to give a FED Talk at @ucla_its. Really enjoyed the idea exchange and discussion on the land value capture practice between US and China

We want to thank Dr. Westerholt and Mr. Rui for their smashing seminars at the DUPAD. They provide us with international insights into studying geometry and smart streets. We hope this exchange will be memorable for us all and stimulate more in the future!

Prof Levin-Keitel shared a fantastic story about her work on planning theories. Why should we care about planning theories? Within an onto-epistemological spectrum, where does a theory fit? The topology of planning theories understands planning theories through a new lens.

Prof. Meike Levin-Keitel from the University of Vienna will share her research about planning theory in a NURSS online seminar on June 4 (14:00 – 15:30 HKT). The discussion will address the meaning of a "theory" as well as the under-theorization in urban planning. RSVP required!

We appreciate this heart-pumping interdisciplinary sharing by Prof Wang. Prof Wang’s work draws our attention to power, relationality, fluidity, and the development trajectory of Cambodia’s SEZs. Planning studies should harbor scholars from different epistemological backgrounds!

Professor June Wang from the CityU HK will be visiting us for a NURSS seminar on April 10, 2024. You are welcome to join us at the due time for some discussions. Prof. Wang will share her findings on networks, assembled positionalities, and the SEZs, using the case of Cambodia.

We thank Prof. Huang for his sharing about Guangdong’s TOR project. The bilingual discussion was great, and learning about the policy dynamics was exciting! We also appreciate everyone’s input to the seminar and hope Prof Huang has a good stay in Hong Kong!

We were thrilled to have Prof. Charlie Xue share his latest findings on the Grand Theatre Urbanism project. We had a wonderful time with Prof. Xue on the discussion, and thanks for Prof. Xue’s patience in answering all the questions raised by our students.

Great to see that the topology of planning theories is used in your work! More theorizing is urgently needed in planning science 👌
What is produced by a theory must be defined before a theory is defined.
