Richard M. Hurd stands as a significant figure in the field of real estate and urban economics, having contributed to the foundational understanding of city land values at the turn of the 20th century. Although details regarding his personal life and broader literary corpus may not be widely known, Hurd's seminal work, 'Principles of City Land Values' (1903), has cemented his place in the pantheon of real estate and urban planning literature. In this treatise, Hurd articulates the intricacies of urban growth and the factors influencing the valuation of city land, an analysis that has been foundational to both academic inquiry and practical application in the field. His exploration of the impact of transportation, population density, and land use on real estate value predates and arguably presages later scholarly work and planning practices. Hurd's scholarly style is characterized by meticulous observation and a systematic approach to understanding the dynamics of city development, revealing an early recognition of the complex interplay between urban infrastructure and economic principles. 'Principles of City Land Values' remains a touchstone not only for students of urban planning and real estate but also historians seeking to understand the economic conditions and thought processes of the early 20th-century United States.
