Retrofitting Sprawl

Addressing Seventy Years of Failed Urban Form

Herausgeber: Talen, Emily

Beschreibung

These twelve previously unpublished essays present innovative and practical ideas for addressing the harmful effects of sprawl. While most conversations on sprawl tend to focus on its restriction, this book presents an overview of current thinking on ways to fix, repair, and retrofit existing sprawl. The authors address head-on the most controversial aspects of sprawl; but they also put these issues in practical contexts.
