A full-color guide to applying new urbanist methodologies to urban and suburban growth Written by experts in the field, this full-color manual explains how to implement the strategies of new urbanism. You will learn how to apply the techniques of Traditional Neighborhood Development (TND)--mixed-use, pedestrian-friendly communities--to urban and suburban growth. Suburban sprawl, which evolved after World War II, is not a smart growth system--it does not pay for itself financially; it consumes land at an alarming rate; it produces transportation problems; and it promotes social inequity. Smart Growth Manual presents a clear blueprint for developing cities and suburbs in the most user-friendly, cost-efficient, and environmentally sustainable manner. The book covers preservation of natural amenities and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)-Neighborhood Development.
