Abstract
In this chapter we consider some direct extensions of the basic competitive equilibrium model which was developed in chapter two. We keep our discussion strictly within the competitive framework of that chapter. Each extension further clarifies the fundamental characteristics of the intraurban resource allocation. Since treating these extensions simultaneously complicates the analysis, or even makes it intractable, we treat each extension separately. We focus on the specific implications of the extension, and we point out the results of chapter two which are not robust and the way in which they should be modified under the extension.
