What is New Urbanism?

The Principles of New Urbanism

The principles of the New Urbanism are defined by a Charter, which was developed between 1993 and 1996 by a broad range of architects, planners, interested citizens, scholars, elected officials, and developers. It was ratified at the fourth annual Congress, the annual meeting sponsored by CNU.

Disinvestment and the spread ofplaceless development

Restoration of existing urban centers

Reconfiguring suburbs

Mixed-use, diverse neighborhoods

Transit options

Restructuring public policyand development practices

Participatory planning and design

The Region: Metropolis, city, townFor new urbanists, the region is the overall context for all planning. That means planning must often cross traditional jurisdictional lines in order to create a healthy region.

The Neighborhood

The word “neighborhood” gets

tossed around a lot in real estate

brochures, so it is important to be

clear what it means. Each

neighborhood has a center and

an edge. The center should be a

public space, whether a square, a

green, or an important intersection.

The Block, Street, and Building

In New Urbanism, streets

are safe, comfortable,

interesting places for

people to walk and

meet. Buildings open

onto sidewalks, rather

than parking lots.

Windows and doors

facing the sidewalk

make streets safer, and

more interesting, for

everyone.

Why a Form-Based Code?Band Aid Approach: PUDs

• “Grand Variance”

• Resulting plans only as

good as the players

involved

• Over used & applied to

inappropriate projects

• Labor intensive

• “Plan Until Death” or

“Please U Developer”
