Sustainable Urbanism part IV

Neighborhood design where streets are permeable and residents have walkable access to many amenities 

• when sites of land are sold to a developer to benefit the regional plan
• example: a farmer sells his land to a childrens school instead of selling the development value to stay on his farm to work it

• Concerned with the existing city 
• larger more comprehensive changes 
• change guided by a planner 
• High intensity high order 

Looking and learning from older models give new urbanism more legitimacy
