Book This Land

    Book Details:
  • Author : Anthony Flint
  • Publisher : Johns Hopkins University Press+ORM
  • Release : 2006-05-10
  • ISBN : 0801889170
  • Pages : 444 pages

Download or read book This Land written by Anthony Flint and published by Johns Hopkins University Press+ORM. This book was released on 2006-05-10 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An expert in American housing examines the rise of sprawling subdivisions, their effect on the environment, and sustainable development strategies. Americans are spreading out more than ever—into “exurbs” and “boomburbs” miles from anywhere, where big subdivisions offer big houses. We cling to the notion of safer neighborhoods and better schools, but what we get are longer commutes, higher taxes, and a landscape of strip malls and office parks. The subdivisions and extra-wide roadways are encroaching into the wetlands of Florida, ranchlands in Texas, and the desert outside Phoenix and Las Vegas. But with up to 120 million more people in the country by 2050, will the spread-out pattern cave in on itself? Could Americans embrace a new approach to development? In This Land, veteran journalist and Harvard scholar Anthony Flint tells the untold story of development in America. It is the story of a burgeoning anti-sprawl movement, a 1960s-style revolution of New Urbanism, smart growth, and green building. And it is the story of landowners fighting back on the basis of property rights, with free-market libertarians, homebuilders, road pavers, financial institutions, and even the lawn-care industry right alongside them.
