Description

Explore the development of a modern urban environment in Shaping Portland: Anatomy of a Healthy City. Published by Routledge as part of their Research in Planning and Urban Design series, this book investigates how the values of a city influence its growth and physical layout. Portland began as a young settlement on a river bank within a virgin forest less than 200 years ago. This text examines the connection between the public realm and the health-forward lifestyles of its residents. By looking at how urban design supports or obstructs these habits, the book provides a deep look into the dynamics that create a healthy urban space. A central part of this study is a close look at the Pearl District, a recognized success in recent urban infill. This case study helps readers understand the specific factors that allow a city to thrive and support its population through intentional design and community values.
