Owner-occupied property located in national historic districts in<br />

Philadelphia sell at a premium of 26 percent.<br />

Massachusetts, U.S.<br />

Historic architectural styles have positive premiums. The historic district<br />

of Newburyport does not have positive external effects.<br />

Historic districts do have higher prices than non-historic districts.<br />

Design quality has a positive premium of 22 percent on rents, but there<br />

is a weak relationship between vacancy behavior and design quality.<br />

Chicago, Illinois, U.S. Tenants are willing to pay a premium to be in new architecturally<br />

signifi cant offi ce building, but apparently see no benefi ts associated<br />

with old offi ce buildings that express recognized aesthetics excellence.<br />
