Abstract

This research will answer the question Which factors motivate the process of decision making on (not) implementing high-rise residential buildings in Eindhoven. During this qualitative case-study, a broader discussion on densification, infill and the use of high-rise within a city centre has been analyzed. The actors involved are identified as the municipality, housing associations, real-estate developers and interest groups. These actors formed the basis for conducting the data and are identified through this case study of the city centre of Eindhoven. This research focuses on which factors influenced the decision-making process during policymaking regarding high-rise buildings in the city center of Eindhoven. By examining the discourses, the planning structure, the created and used tools of the municipality and the actual planning practices, based on the model of Janin rivolin, it can be concluded that four themes have influenced the decision-making process surrounding high rise residential buildings in the city center of Eindhoven: political/governmental factors, environmental factors, market-oriented factors and societal factors. These four themes all have influenced the decision-making process surrounding the implementation of high-rise buildings in the city center of Eindhoven in various ways.
