Summary:
How can urban housing, and the land underneath, now account for half of all global wealth? According to Patrick Condon in ''Broken City'', the simple answer is that land has become an asset rather than a utility. If the rich only indulged themselves with gold, jewels, and art, we wouldn’t have a global housing crisis. But once global capital markets realized land was a(...)

Summary:
How can urban housing, and the land underneath, now account for half of all global wealth? According to Patrick Condon in ''Broken City'', the simple answer is that land has become an asset rather than a utility. If the rich only indulged themselves with gold, jewels, and art, we wouldn’t have a global housing crisis. But once global capital markets realized land was a good speculative investment, runaway housing costs ensued. For example, in Vancouver, land prices increased by six hundred percent between 2008 and 2016. How much wealth have investors extracted from urban land? In this engaging, readable, and insightful treatise, Patrick Condon explains how we have let land, our most durable resource, shift away from the common good and proposes bold strategies for how cities in North America can shift it back.

Summary:
La valorisation des bâtiments existants est une des avenues les plus prometteuses pour le développement durable et la lutte aux changements climatiques. Agir de manière décisive pour améliorer le bilan environnemental exige donc d'oeuvrer en priorité à la mise à niveau des bâtiments existants, avant de combler les besoins additionnels par la construction de bâtiments neufs performants. Qu'il s'agisse de requalifications, de changements d'usages, de rénovations intégrales ou de réfections plus modestes, ces approches constituent autant d'occasions d'optimiser un investissement initial pour en tirer un maximum de valeur. Prolonger la vie utile d'un bâtiment peut en soi constituer un geste environnemental fort. Cet ouvrage explore les retombées écologiques, sociales et économiques de la construction au Québec et met en évidence les avantages de valoriser les bâtiments anciens comme stratégie de développement durable.

Summary:
On the eve of the Women’s Day manifestations of 2021, the Mexican government erected metal barricades surrounding the National Palace—the seat of federal executive power—in the heart of Mexico City. This was meant to prevent damage by demonstrators and, therefore, "protect the heritage of all Mexicans and avoid confrontation...a wall of peace that guarantees liberty and protection from provocations," in the words of the President's spokesman. On Saturday, March 6, the feminist collective Antimonumenta CDMX decided to paint the barricades with the names of recent victims of femicide in Mexico. Over the next few hours, hundreds of women spontaneously gathered to honor the absent women, writing their names and leaving flowers: an offering to remember them, to not forget, and, by doing so, to honor them.This series of photographs documents the barricades that were intervened in those days so that they may still be read.

Summary:
How do we challenge the prevailing visual discourse of contemporary architecture? Is there a more harmonious architectural production path? Can we inhabit Earth without annihilating the very conditions sustaining us and others? "Dominio" confronts architecture’s grand narrative by illuminating its production processes. These images strive to trigger a critical introspection about architectural production and its socio-ecological footprint, while contesting the dominant visual narrative that perpetuates its existence. This publication, then, is a mosaic of queries, contradictions, and internal conflict. It serves as my introspective critique of how my role as an architectural photographer might have inadvertently contributed to architecture’s fetishization.
