This document summarizes strategies for maintaining affordability in the neighborhood of Bushwick in Brooklyn. It discusses how rents have risen 50% as the neighborhood has become more trendy. There are concerns about tenant harassment and displacement of existing residents. The document outlines four policy recommendations: 1) prevent tenant harassment and preserve affordable housing, 2) promote industrial retention and local jobs, 3) improve safety, sanitation, and quality of life. Specific strategies are presented in each category, such as advocating for anti-harassment zoning, affordable housing reflective of local incomes, and designating preservation vs. development areas.

Planning & Urban Design Principles for Non-PlannersVierbicher
Much of the development that has occurred in Wisconsin and around the nation over the past 60 years has created a feeling of sameness from community to community. Our development pattern has separated uses from one another and catered to cars at the expense of pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit. The New Urbanism promotes the creation and restoration of diverse, walkable, compact, vibrant mixed-use communities built with integrated housing, employment, shops, and schools. It is a revival of the lost art of "placemaking" to raise our quality of life and standard of living by creating neighborhoods, not just subdivisions, and building main streets, not just shopping malls.
