It divides urban renewal of small towns into sub-components such as environmental challenges, demographic trends, economic changes and cultural aspects, and aging infrastructure. In each, context is established, and principles are outlined and illustrated. Topics include urban form, mobility and connectivity, infill neighborhoods design, wealth generation, and promotion of local culture and well‐being. Reinforced with detailed case studies, Fundamentals of Sustainable Urban Renewal in Small and Mid‐Sized Towns is an ideal resource for municipal planners, architects, civil engineers, and policy makers. Raises important questions on planning, urban design, and sustainability not previously covered by books devoted solely to large metropolitan regions; Presents a unique, systematic approach to the architecture, planning, and retooling of small towns that emphasizes the capacity for urban design to promote social regeneration and vitality; Suggests innovative strategies that tie theory and practice and offer a comprehensive primer to contemporary planning issues; Discusses a range of long-term strategies, anchored in principles of sustainable development, describing how to place a town on sustainable footing. 000839460 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed May 30, 2018). 000839460 650_0 $$aUrban renewal$$vCase studies. 000839460 650_0 $$aCities and towns$$xGrowth. 000839460 650_0 $$aCity planning. 000839460 650_0 $$aSustainable urban development. 000839460 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z9783319744636 000839460 852__ $$bebk 000839460 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-74464-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000839460 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:839460$$pGLOBAL_SET 000839460 980__ $$aEBOOK 000839460 980__ $$aBIB 000839460 982__ $$aEbook 000839460 983__ $$aOnline 000839460 994__ $$a92$$bISE
