ABSTRACT This paper investigates skyscraper competition between New York City and Chicago. The urban economics literature is generally silent on strategic interaction cities, yet rivalry these cities a part of U.S. historiography. tests whether there is, in fact, across cities. First, I find that each city has positive reaction functions with respect to the other city, suggesting complementarity. In regard zoning, height regulations negatively impacted but produced responses by providing...

This article is the first to rigorously test how skyscraper height and output co-move. Because builders can use their buildings for nonrational or nonpecuniary gains, it widely believed that competition occurs near business cycle peaks. would suggest extreme building a leading indicator of GDP, since tallest are likely be completed at peak cycle. To these claims, we look both announcement completion dates record-breaking find there very little correlation with Second, cointegration Granger...

Abstract Convective clouds play an important role in the Earth’s climate system and are a known source of extreme weather. Gaps our understanding convective vertical motions, microphysics, precipitation across full range aerosol meteorological regimes continue to limit ability predict occurrence intensity these cloud systems. Towards improving predictability, National Science Foundation (NSF) sponsored large field experiment entitled “Experiment Sea Breeze Convection, Aerosols,...

There is a large literature in the U.S. measuring extent and stringency of land-use regulations urban areas how these affect important outcomes such as housing prices economic growth. This paper first to present an international measure regulatory by estimating what we call building-height gaps. Using novel geospatialized data set on year construction heights tall buildings around world, compare total height country's actual stock would have been if were relatively less stringent, based...

The impacts of a major hurricane on residential real estate can be devastating. Hurricane Sandy in New York City (NYC) is among the examples how flooding unexpectedly extend beyond FEMA flood zones. Such surprises or negative shocks provide property owners—especially those not flooded—with new information about future risks, based difference distance from zone and to actual locations flooding. We use difference-in-differences approach quantify effects these values for non-flooded NYC...

This paper provides a synthesis of the state knowledge on economics skyscrapers. First, we document how vertical urban growth has gained pace over course 20th century. Second, lay out simple theoretical model optimal building heights in competitive market to rationalize this trend. Third, provide estimates range parameters that shape height profile along with summary related and empirical literature. Fourth, discuss factors outside framework explain rich variation short distances, such as...
