Blending Conservation Design and New Urbanism
This program describes the crossover between
Conservation Design and the New Urbanism, showing how they can be blended. In areas served by public water and sewer, conservation
design techniques can be readily combined with TND principles to create
walkable, mixed-use neighborhoods, often involving infill projects and
incremental growth around the community's outer edges. This program shows how
higher density neighborhoods can be designed around the central organizing
principle of an open space network and incorporate distinctive features of the
natural and cultural landscape, producing more sustainable results. This
program is based largely on Randall Arendts last two books: Envisioning Better Communities and Crossroads, Hamlet, Village, Town. Randall
Arendt is a landscape planner, site designer, author, lecturer, and an advocate
for conservation design. This webcast is sponsored by the Connecticut Chapter
of APA.
