Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2003. / Includes bibliographical references (leaf 71). / Three case studies are used as a qualitative tool to analyze the successful conversion of these types of buildings. Analysis will consider physical dimension, building structure, capital structure, and project costs, including acquisition, development, and construction cost data. Tax or other incentive programs are discussed when applicable to project feasibility and developer returns identified when possible for a relative comparison. The case study analysis will attempt to provide practical information to developers considering similar conversion projects. The information will identify conditions and inherent problems that prevail in these buildings and will provide a general context for conversion feasibility analysis. / by Zach E. Schaumburg. / S.M.
