Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect, designer, writer, and educator. He designed more than 1,000 structures over a creative period of 70 years.
Wrightt believed in designing in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture.
This philosophy was best exemplified by Fallingwater (1935), which has been called the best all-time work of American architecture. As a founder of organic architecture, Wright played a key role in the architectural movements of the twentieth century, influencing three generations of architects worldwide through his works.
There is a train station and a few office and apartment buildings in Broadacre City. All important transport is done by automobile, and the pedestrian can exist safely only within the confines of the one-acre (0.40-hectare) plots where most of the population dwells.
Jacobs had no professional training in the field of city planning, nor did she hold the title of planner. Instead, she relied on her observations and common sense to show why certain places work, and what can be done to improve those that do not

An Overview of the City Beautiful Movement - An architectural manifestation of the social response to failing urban life.
Contains details regarding the origin, key characteristics, architects and major cities involved, along with the following case studies :
- Mcmillan Plan
- Plan of Chicago and
- City of Minneapolis.
The first large-scale elaboration of the City Beautiful occurred in Chicago at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition. The planning of the exposition was directed by architect Daniel Burnham, who hired architects from the eastern United States, as well as the sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, to build large-scale Beaux-Arts monuments that were vaguely classical with uniform cornice height. The exposition displayed a model city of grand scale, known as the "White City", with modern transport systems and no poverty visible. The exposition is credited with resulting in the large-scale adoption of monumentalism for American architecture for the next 15 years. Richmond, Virginia's Monument Avenue is one expression of this initial phase.
Garden City is an incorporated village in Nassau County, New York, United States, in the town of Hempstead.

The New Urbanism: Design Principles for Vibrant CommunitiesVierbicher
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.

An Introduction on Case Studies in UrbanismRoberto Rocco
Everything you've always wanted to know about Case Studies in Urbanism. This is a very long and wordy presentation. The intention is that you can read it without having me presenting it: it works as a small reader.
What is the role of THEORY in Urbanism?Roberto Rocco
This is a presentation prepared for the course Methodology for Urbanism (Ar2U090) of the the TU Delft, Faculty of Architecture. In this presentation we discuss what is theory and why we need theories in Urbanism.
New Urbanism is Blooming
Perhaps the most valuable tool in the Smart Growth toolkit is New Urbanism. While Smart Growth principles support higher density, mixed-use, walkable environments, New Urbanism is proving to be the most successful method for making these Smart Growth goals achievable.
The symbiotic relationship between smart cities and smart grids. The integration of city infrastructure with electric utilities infrastructure is indeed a natural way of building a system of systems to deliver a secure resilient grid through the emergence of integrated utility micro-grids.
A narrative about how the grid will transform itself starting with the convergence of advanced intelligent machines, broadband communications, edge computing, cloud analytics all connected as a secure distributed network.
This kickoff intrtoduces the concept of the Agile Fractal grid to more than 100 companies that particpated in the full day workshop lead by Chuck Speicher and John Reynolds and Craig Miller the Chief scientist of the NRECA

9/8 THUR 12:15 | Keynote Ellen Dunham-JonesAPA Florida
In line with the conference theme, “What Will We Do Now?”,Ellen Dunham-Jones will open the conference with a discussion on how to transform the sprawl of suburbia into a more resilient and more urban future. Ms. Dunham-Jones co-authored
the book, “Retrofitting Suburbia”, which catalogs a full range of strategies from full-scale town center redevelopment to transformations of big box sites into churches, call centers, and public libraries to incremental strategies such as improving accessibility, so residents can age in place. Ms. Dunham-Jones is an award-winning architect, professor at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a leading authority on suburban redevelopment. She teaches and researches contemporary architectural urban design studios and theory. Her insights and their potential
for application in Florida should be of particular interest as communities come to terms with sprawling development patterns in the face of fewer available resources needed to serve them.
Economist Joe Cortright shares exciting findings from research done for CEOs for Cities about the positive effect of higher Walkscores on housing values. See http://www.ceosforcities.org/work/walkingthewalk for more information. Presented at the CNU 2009 Transportation Summit in Portland — http://cnu.org/transportation2009 .
Metro Councilor Robert Liberty discusses and presents work that Metro is doing in an effort to produce environmentally and pedestrian friendly communities, while preserving and investing in the communities that already exist. Mr. Liberty recognizes that the current, rapid rate of land development in the United States is destructive to our economy, environment and way of life.
Stuart Gwin compares two pairs of neighborhoods using their relative accessibility and connectivity to
illustrate the difficulty of building connected networks in the modern urban setting.
While outlining principles that contribute to successful community and regional planning designs, Metro Councilor Rex Burkholder discusses the importance of the Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) and Metro's unique role in implementing transportation reform that helps to link a community back to its region and state, the economy and environmental protection initiatives.
This presentation from Scott Bernstein highlights the origins of contemporary network and highways legislation while reminding us about the influence of contemporary historians who have greatly influenced discussion surrounding transportation networks.
Todd Litman of the Victoria Transportation Institute reports on the history of desirability of living locations, and how our automobile dependent society has fueled sprawl development. Mr. Litman also outlines the benefits of Smart Growth development and how growing trends, "changing attitudes about urban living," "increasing health and environmental concerns" and "shifting assumptions about suburban real estate values" are making headway in support of transportation and planning reforms that can transform our regions and communities into healthier, more functional, and beautiful places.
John Norquist, CNU's President and CEO outlines the importance of narrower, interconnected street networks, and how connectivity, ranging from the regional scale to the local neighborhood, block and street scale is contrary to common thought, critical to reducing emergency response times. While streets should be as integral as common civic space as the buildings that reside on them are, narrower, connected street networks also contribute to the overall safety and health of a city's design.
Andy Cotugno examines the relationship between land development patterns and motor vehicle travel in the U.S. and assess whether petroleum use and CO2 emissions could be reduced by changes in development design. Mr. Cotugno reveals how compact and mixed use development, and residential density directly correlate to a healthier environment, while acknowledging the challenges of economic and political reform.
Norman Garrick compares street network design from pre-1950 and post-1950, factors that help determine the overall safety of safe pedestrian travel, and explains why it is so obvious that the pandemic of sprawl development is to blame for unsafe, poorly designed, disconnected neighborhoods. Studies prove that Street Network Design has an integral role in providing safe, pedestrian friendly,and highly accessible communities. We must re-think the suburban model in order to reform emergency response.
Rick Hall analyzes the economic, health and environmental implications of creating pedestrian friendly, walkable neighborhoods. While recognizing the importance of walkability to the overall effort of healthy urban development, Mr. Hall highlights the "top ten" factors contributing to walkability. Topping this list is small block size. Mr. Hall's presentation reminds us of the importance of contextual connectivity, pedestrian accessibility as well as urban density and their contribution sustainable city design.

Often overlooked during the housing bubble as people sought more house for their money
in far-flung “drive-till-you-qualify” locations, transportation costs are a household’s second
largest household expense. The housing crisis showed: Lower transportation costs in your
community mean fewer families in distress, fewer foreclosures and a more stable values.
But there’s more…

Infrastructure runs better on New Urbanism: EPA head-to-head study (2010).
“When comparing CSD scenarios to alternative TND designs, the study found that infrastructure
costs for the TND scenarios were consistently less than CSD. Reductions in infrastructure costs
due to TND development patterns ranged from 32 to 47%, with the extent of TND cost savings
based principally on density.”

Other EPA Study Takeaways:
•”Utilization of lower density CSD development patterns requires additional land acquisition
spending compared to a compact TND with the same development program.”
•”The same TND infrastructure framework can support much higher densities due to the
interconnected transportation network, mixing of uses, and parking efficiencies.”

With so much traffic funneled into arterial thoroughfares, engineers for Community 2.0
make these streets wider and wider (left). Crosswalks are spaced so widely that people
put their lives at risk playing “Frogger” to cross the street.
New urbanist neighborhoods (Community 3.0) rely on interconnected networks that
distribute traffic more equally. Major thoroughfares don’t need to be so wide and
feature inviting sidewalks and public amenities. Small blocks make for frequent,
convenient and safe crosswalks.

Eric Dumbaugh, Assistant Professor of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning at Texas
A&M University, has studied the safety impact of high-volume arterials compared to New
Urbanism’s livable streets:
Arterials roads are associated with increased crash risks for all users, regardless of
mode.
•14% increase in multiple-vehicle crashes.
•10% increase in pedestrian crashes.
•8.4% increase in bicyclist crashes.
Per vehicle mile traveled, livable streets reported:
• 40% fewer midblock crashes than roadway averages.
• 67% fewer roadside crashes than roadway averages.

More from Eric Dumbaugh:
Each additional arterial-oriented commercial use is associated with:

a 1.7% increase in vehicle-cyclist crashes.
Each big box store is associated with:
•an 8.7% increase in multiple-vehicle crashes • an 8.9% increase in pedestrian
crashes • a 4.6% increase in cyclist crashes.
Each pedestrian-scaled retail use is associated with:
•a 3.4% decrease in multiple-vehicle crashes •a 1.6% decrease in pedestrian crashes •
a negative but statistically insignificant effect on bicyclist crashes.

Joe Cortright for CEOs for Cities: “They
found that in many ways, the street
corner beats the cul de sac...The study
found that houses with above-average
Walk Scores commanded a premium. It
was as much as $30,000 in cities like
Charlotte, N.C., Chicago, Sacramento
and San Francisco, wrote Cortright, an
economist at Impresa, a consulting firm
in Portland, Ore."
The study looked at the sales of 90,000 homes in 15 markets to estimate
how much value was associated with better Walk Scores. Using a 100-
point scale, this score rates the number of destinations, including
libraries, parks and coffee shops, within walking distance of a home..

The LEED for Neighborhood Development (LEED-ND) rating system is the result of a partnership between the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), and the Congress for the New Urbanism (CNU). First conceived in 2002, the rating system integrates the principles of smart growth, New Urbanism, and green building into the first national standard for green neighborhood development.
