| 总结: | Chile is an emerging nation where the provision of housing has prompted the development of the real estate market. During 2012, 3,500 housing units were sold in the country. Most of these dwellings are associated with the neighborhood typology. Such a growth pattern is often related to the expansion of the city, has a strong impact on its physical-natural and social environments and implies an increase in the consumption of materials and energy. Different urban sustainability strategies —which are especially focused on new neighborhoods— have been developed in order to mitigate the effects of this development. However, there is no national consensus on how to produce sustainable neighborhoods nor is there an assessment tool which might measure the contribution of these projects to sustainable development. Through the review of international sources this paper seeks to understand the extent to which international standards could be implemented in local neighborhood projects. Then, the advantages and difficulties related to the transferring of these standards to the real estate market are further explored. |
