This initiative is aimed at reconciling the growing desire for appropriately-sized and connected streets with emergency responders’ access needs. We believe common ground exists for solutions because streets in connected networks: •Can improve emergency response times by providing several routes to any given address. •Are safer for pedestrians, drivers, and emergency responders since they calm Residential streets like this 28-foot wide example in Prospect New Town in Longmont, Colo., traffic below speeds that more likely are a staple of New Urbanism, but are often hindered by the International Fire Code’s 20-foot result in fatal or serious injury collisions. clear rule.

  • Architectural Design for Traditional Neighborhoods
    (Adjust Width As Needed) ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN FOR TRADITIONAL NEIGHBORHOODS Korkut Onaran Fernando Pagés Ruiz Ronnie Pelusio Tom Lyon Foreword by Andrés Duany Afterword by Stephen A. Mouzon Published by Vinyl Siding Institute As advocates of New Urbanism and traditional neighborhood development (TND), designers often face the task of convincing their builder clients that true TND entails more than a few facade details slapped on production models in a suburban plat. Architectural Design for Traditional Neighborhoods offers simple concepts that will help developers and builders quickly grasp the basic ideas behind traditional neighborhood platting and block-face design. At the same time, designers must adapt to the methods and materials best suited to production builders, who build most of our nation’s housing. Our guidelines help designers and planners work within the limitations of the construction industry while taking advantage of building material innovations that add value to TNDs.

  • Strategies for Compact Suburban Development
    REALIZINGDENSITY Strategies for Compact Suburban Development DECEMBER2004 REALIZINGDENSITY Strategies for Compact Suburban Development DECEMBER2004 Created in 1965, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is an interstate, intercounty and intercity agency that provides continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning to shape a vision for the future growth of the Delaware Valley region. The region includes Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties, as well as the City of Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer counties in New Jersey. DVRPC provides technical assistance and services; conducts high priority studies that respond to the requests and demands of member state and local governments; fosters cooperation among various constituents to forge a consensus on diverse regional issues; determines and meets the needs of the private sector; and practices public outreach efforts to promote two-way communication and public awareness of regional issues and the Commission. Our logo is adapted from the official DVRPC seal, and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The outer ring symbolizes the region as a whole, while the diagonal bar signifies the Delaware River. The two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. DVRPC is funded by a variety of funding sources including federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Pennsylvania and New Jersey departments of transportation, as well as by DVRPC’s state and local member governments. The authors, however, are solely responsible for its findings and conclusions, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies.

  • Prosperity Village Inspiration Photos
    Prosperity Village Inspiration Photos “Homework” Assignment from June 11-12, 2014 Small Group Meetings All photos, captions, and text are as submitted by small group meeting community participants Apartments above retail Pedestrian-only streets I don’t like shopping centers because they are so spread out with massive parking areas (i.e. Friendly Center in Greensboro or the Harris Teeter shopping center on the corner of Eastfield and Prosperity Church). I would rather parking be concentrated into parking decks (like Birkdale Village) and have heavy tree canopies to keep the area comfortable in hot summers. I also like the Grande Promenade on Harris Blvd, but its parking deck needs to be larger and more easily accessible. 2 Pedestrian-centered streets Public areas built to blend in to natural areas (such as Coligny Beach plaza in Hilton Head) 3 Special event green space The Green I love the green space incorporated into mixed use building areas such as The Green in uptown. We are often uptown for shows and we use that green space to play, relax and dine. It is great that there are good restaurants on The Green. If the green space could function as a special events location, it would naturally draw more people (especially families) to spend money in the retail establishments. Free things to do are great, such as the events at Birkdale Village and the sprayground/patio/ playground at Blakeney shopping center. I think if the concept behind Shoppes at University Place were at Prosperity Village then it would thrive. Specifically the playground, amphitheater, bridges and boardwalk.
