Wiley Yard, Street, Park: The Design of Suburban Open Space

With suburbs absorbing an increased share of American development, a new generation of planners and designers are turning their attention to creating new suburban forms. This book explores the planning theories that created the suburbs, and describes the kind of open space planning methods that can be applied to make the suburbs more sustainable and livable communities. It examines both historical roots of modern suburbia and "classic" successes of new town design.
