"In Within Walking Distance, journalist and urban critic Philip Langdon looks at why and how Americans are shifting toward a more human-scale way of building and living. He shows how people are creating, improving, and caring for walkable communities. There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Starting conditions differ radically, as do the attitudes and interests of residents. To draw the most important lessons, Langdon spent time in six communities that differ in size, history, wealth, diversity, and education, yet share crucial traits: compactness, a mix of uses and activities, and human scale. [...] In these communities, Langdon examines safe, comfortable streets; sociable sidewalks; how buildings connect to the public realm; bicycling; public transportation; and incorporation of nature and parks into city or town life. In all these varied settings, he pays special attention to a vital ingredient: local commitment." -- Pedestrian areas United States Planning Community development United States City planning United States City planning (OCoLC)fst00862177 fast Community development (OCoLC)fst00870818 fast Pedestrian areas Planning (OCoLC)fst01056371 fast United States (OCoLC)fst01204155 fast https://link.springer.com/10.5822/978-1-61091-773-5 Uni Basel: Volltext https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/unibern/detail.action?docID=4840652 Uni Bern: Volltext https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/unibern/detail.action?docID=5359324 Uni Bern: Volltext BK020053 XK020053 XK020000 Springer Earth and Environmental Science eBooks 2017 English/International E-Books von 360MarcUpdates Ebook Central All Subscribed Titles IDSBB A145 A145 145VT NELA1451812 IDSBB B405 B405 405VT NELB4052007 IDSBB B405 B405 405VT NELB4052007 IDSBB 100 1- Langdon Philip author IDSBB 856 40 https://link.springer.com/10.5822/978-1-61091-773-5 Uni Basel: Volltext IDSBB 856 40 https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/unibern/detail.action?docID=4840652 Uni Bern: Volltext IDSBB 856 40 https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/unibern/detail.action?docID=5359324 Uni Bern: Volltext SWISSBIB 486747719
