    Intersections: Health and the Built Environment Built Intersections: the and Health an we build our way to better health? Intersections: Health and the Built CEnvironment answers this question with a resounding yes. From community design that facilitates active living to fostering access to healthy foods and offer- ing building amenities that support active lifestyles, ULI members, partners, and other leaders in real estate and land use have a role to play in responding to one of the most pressing challenges of our day: health.
