bRead the artide. Which town plan do the "new urbanists" "}use.
•
These are some of the
principIes of New Urbanism:
• There is a clear eenter to the
neighborhood.This is often a
square or a plaza.
• Most houses or apartments
are within a five-minute walk
of the eenter.
• There are different kinds of
houses and apartments, with
varying priees.
• There is a variety of sto res and
offiees in the neighborhood .
• l1'spossible for ehildren to
walk to the elementary sehool.
• There are narrow streets with
trees along them.This slows
traffle and makes it better for
people who walk or ride
bieycles.
••••
possible lO walk almost anywhere.
Their ideas are called New
Urbanismo There are now
300-500 New Urbanism projects
planned or being built in the
United States. One
example is Vermillion,
a new neighborhood in
Huntersville, North
Carolina.
••
eurrently, many people live in
suburbs, large residential
areas oUlside major cities. In these
areas slOres, schools, and work
places are often far away from
people's homes.
These communities
sometimes have no
center. Cars are a
necessity. Parents
drive their children
lO school, and they
drive lO the slOres.
People don't walk
very mucho They don't see or talk
lO their neighbors on the street.
Now sorne lOwn planners and
architects are designing small,
integrated lOWDS,where it's
New Urbanism
There's a new approach to town and city
planning in the United States these days.

sometimes does radio commercials. He is very artistic too.
He can draw and paint, and he makes jewelry. He makes
beautiful gifts for his friends. And he's a good cook!

drums, but he can't play the trumpet. He can't speak French, but wants
to learn. He thinks that people can do anything if they have confidence
and believe they can. He says, "If someone asks me if 1
know how to do something, 1 say, 'Sure 1 can,'

Dear lenna,
My boyfriend works hard

he works too hard. He always
has his Japtop computer with
him. He turns on his computer
and says he has to do "a little
work." Then he doesn 't talk to

what else she's doing on

1 Harold Myers doesn't like to go on cmises.
2 Harold received letters from people far away.
3 The bottles floated long distan ces.
Harold and his wife, Lois,
took a Caribbean cruise in
1987. Harold took three bottles with him. He
wrote messages in English and Spanish, and
put each message in a bottle with a dollar.
The dollar, his note explained, was to pay for
postage for a response. Harold threw the
three bottles into the water.
Soon after he returned home from the
cruise, he received a letter. A French tourist
found the bottle on the beach on StoBart's, an
island 30 miles away from where Harold threw
it in the water. Harold was excited. "1really
didn't expect to hear from anybody at all," he
said. Another bottle f10ated for almost 2,000
miles and survived a hurricane. A tourist
recovered it near Belize.
The bottles were now Harold's hobby. He
threw more bottles into the sea on an Alaskan
cruise, and again a few years later near

and wrote him letters. Then, in 1996, while on
a cruise off the coast of Mexico, Harold threw
in three more bottles. Twenty-two months
later a fisherman wrote to say he recovered
the bottle in the sea near the Philippines. The
bottle traveled at least 7,000 miles from the
other side of the Pacific!
