patterns of subdivision. Multi-storey condominium blocks began supplying
the middle-income market. From the mid-1980s low-cost townhouses
appeared on the market. Following new legislation in 1979, condominiums
emerged as a conspicuous mode of inner city accommodation, particularly
among the expanding numbers of European and Asian expatriate profes-
sionals. Early luxury condominiums were concentrated around Sathorn,
Pathumwan, Ploenchit and the soi of Sukhumvit Road (Bundit 1983:
176-7; Sakchai 1993: 9-11). Bangkok-based developers of condominiums
and luxury residential complexes expanded their investments into the
provinces, as far afield as Hua Hin in the south and the city of Chiangmai
in the north, in order to meet the demand of the Bangkok bourgeoisie for
weekend retreats (Hamilton 1994: 162-4; Lubeigt 1994: 123).
