On this episode of TRECcast, we chat with Christopher Leinberger, chairman of the Center for Real Estate and Urban Analysis at the George Washington University School of Business! Leinberger recently headlined our first Bank of Texas Speaker Series event of the year in which he debuted his WalkUP Wake-Up study on urban walkability in the Dallas-Fort Worth region. The study argues that while Dallas has been among the nation’s leaders in drivable suburban city planning, it must begin to pivot more toward walkable urban developments to meet current and future market demands.

You can read the full WalkUP Wake-Up report here and its executive summary here.
