Commuter Shopping : A study in understanding commuting in the context of shoppingAndersson, Åsa, Skoog, Sara, Svensson, Johanna January 2014 (has links)
Background For ages people have commuted to work, or to other activities, located outside their home municipality. Statements found indicate that the basic decision for commuting are based on utility maximisation and no matter what the character of the benefit is; it should be higher than what can be found closer to the home location. This thesis aims to investigate if people are also commuting with the purpose of obtaining benefits from shopping. The shopping location will in this thesis be defined as a shopping mall. In order for shopping malls to attract customers and create awareness of which benefits they offer they must engage in branding. The authors of this thesis have chosen to investigate the terms; shopping, commuting and branding separately in order to find a definition for the term commuter shopping and to create understanding for what makes people engage in commuter shopping. Purpose The purpose of this thesis is to understand how the term commuter can be translated into the context of shopping. Moreover, the goal is also to identify the reasons for why people are willing to commute to a shopping destination not closest to their home location. The authors will also provide a definition for the term commuter shopping. Method In order to fulfil the purpose of this thesis, an abductive research approach was used. This includes a mixed method research, which allows both qualitative and quantitative data to be represented. The quantitative data in this research consist of a survey conducted at a shopping mall in Jönköping called A6 Center and used a sample of 402 customers as respondents. The qualitative part of the research includes an interview with A6 Center’s Centre Manager Kristoffer Krantz. The main source of information, however, is the collection of secondary data within the fields of commuting, shopping malls and branding which are combined in order to provide a definition of commuter shopping. Conclusion The study contributes with understanding in the fields of research to the extent that means one can translate the term commuting into the context of shopping. Moreover, the thesis managed to identify the reasons for why people engage in commuter shopping and which attributes they value at a shopping location. As a result the thesis propose a definition: “Commuter shopping is when one or more people go to a shopping location, not closest to their home location, in order to obtain benefits satisfied by attributes offered.”

Sustainability comes to the mall : rethinking the Eastwood Towne CenterSmar, Matt 11 1900 (has links)
The plans for a shopping mall under construction on a 192-acre site in Lansing Township, Ingham
County, Michigan, United States were used as the basis of a design exploration into ways for improving
the environmental and social sustainability of conventional malls. The exploration focused on four
themes, specifically: Native plant materials; stormwater management^experiential qualities; and
biodiversity. Literature on the use of these four themes to achieve sustainability goals was reviewed, and
design precedents and projects that employed native plant materials, stormwater management, place
experiential qualities, and biodiversity to improve environmental and social sustainability were
examined.
The literature on plant species native to the Ingham County area was researched to determine which
species are suitable as landscape plant materials for shopping mall environments. A variety of
interventions were proposed for managing stormwater runoff on the site, with an emphasis on soil
infiltration as a management technique. Interventions were proposed to provide a pleasurable and
comfortable experience for mall visitors, most notably summer shade for people and parked cars, ease of
navigation and movement through the site for pedestrians and vehicles, and aesthetically pleasing
plantings and architecture. Planted areas were designed to provide food and cover for wildlife common
in the Ingham County area.
The layout of the buildings and parking lots was designed to facilitate the future transformation of the
shopping mall into a residential neighborhood, as a means of recycling developed land and limiting
urban sprawl. Many of the interventions proposed were designed with the intention of revealing natural
processes operating in the landscape, in the manner of the Eco-Revelatory design movement.
This exploration demonstrated that it is possible to redesign a conventional shopping mall to make it a
greater social asset to the community and less of an environmental liability. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Architecture and Landscape Architecture (SALA), School of / Graduate

Achieving transit value capture in the suburbs : the redevelopment of greyfield shopping mallsWilke, Julie Ann 05 December 2013 (has links)
In recent years, a renewed interest has blossomed in rail travel and rail investment.
However, federal funding constraints for new transit projects threaten the feasibility
of urban rail network construction and expansion. In response, the public sector has
begun to consider alternative financial mechanisms including value capture. As new
construction expands transit’s reach into the suburbs, another phenomenon is facing
these communities – the death of the suburban shopping mall. This report examines
these two issues: constraints in transit funding and the proliferation of greyfield
shopping malls. Addressing both issues, the argument is made that greyfield
shopping malls serve as excellent locations to implement transit value capture
strategies by converting the malls into suburban transit-oriented developments
(TODs). / text
