June Williamson shows that suburbs aren‘t destined to remain filled with strip malls and excess parking lots; they can be reinvigorated through inventive design. Today, dead malls, aging office parks, and blighted apartment complexes are being retrofitted into walkable, sustainable communities..Williamson provides a broad vision of suburban reform based on the best schemes submitted in Long Island‘s highly successful "Build a Better Burb" competition. Many of the design ideas and plans operate at a regional scale, tackling systems such as transit, aquifer protection, and power generation. While some seek to fundamentally transform development patterns, others work with existing infrastructure to create mixed-use, shared networks..Designing Suburban Futures. offers concrete but visionary strategies to take the sprawl out of suburbia, creating a vibrant new, suburban form.. | 出版日期 | Book 2013Latest edition | 关键词 | Bourgeois utopias; Broadacre City; Retrofitting suburbia; Suburban sprawl; Urban design; urban geography | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.5822/978-1-61091-527-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-61091-527-4 | copyright | June Williamson 2013 |
