In this paper the urban real estate market is dealt with in the context of broad societal changes. Particular restructuring processes, such as the social and economic polarization between urban regions and the uncoupling of the spheres of production and financial investments, are leading to a rehierarchization of urban land markets and significant changes in the formation of urban land rents. The restructuring of urban land markets is demonstrated with empirical data on cities in West Germany. Against this background the author pleads for a partial reformulation of urban rent theory.
