摘要: |
Within the past decade there has been a desire in many urban areas of the United States to create more "livable" communities. One direction of thinking in this "new urbanism" promotes the revival of traditionally styled land-use developments in which people live, work, and shop all within a pedestrian-oriented community. While such communities are common in large urban areas and small rural cities, they are rarely seen in suburban communities. One effort to revive a traditionally styled community within suburbia has taken place in the City of Novi, Michigan. This paper highlights some of the design elements of the project and discusses how the planning and design process influenced the appearance and function of this neotraditional district. |
