Kingsford Stadium Construction Case Study

This study will investigate how the hypothetical construction of the Kingsford stadium would affect the housing values of the surrounding areas. It will analyse property values from other areas and compare them with values after a stadium has been built in that area. The methodology of ‘Hedonic analyses’ are used to assess the value differentials between dwellings in the close proximity to the site and compare that to similar builds in different areas.
The impact of economic and social factors of a new stadium build in Kingsford is currently being debated, with Aberdeen City Council making a decision in the near future on whether to allow the construction to go forward or not.
