Addressing one of the hottest trends in real estate--the development of town centers and urban villages with mixed uses in pedestrian-friendly settings--this book will help navigate through the unique design and development issues and reveal how to make all elements work together.
This book sparked creative ideas on how to plan/design a more cohesive town center compared with the strip shopping centers of yesterday. Because I live in a growing small college town and I am involved with zoning, this was very helpful in our goal of establishing a harmonious community for all of our citizens. Since I am a visual learner, the many pictures and illustrations were especially helpful.
