How Can I Find and Build A Walkable Community?

This is a great explanation of how development should and shouldn't take place. If more people in NC thought like this, we'd be in much better shape.

Another great read I am finishing up is Suburban Nation.

From the article in the last page:

Finally, asked to name the two towns in America most deserving of praise for Herculean tasks they are now performing to overcome the ills of sprawl...Sacramento, California and Charlotte, North Carolina deserve special recognition and observation.

Duh on the Queen City

HUH??? Anyone want to support his lauding of Charlotte's answers to sprawl?

For a moment, i thought the quote said Charlotte is home to the worst sprawl in America along with Sacramento. Ok, my bad over there!

I am entitled to human error

I was wondering the same thing. Maybe he was on lsd when he visited Charlotte

Yea, I didn't understand the sprawl thing. I think the guy's from Charlotte. Maybe he should go drive out Providence Road to Hwy51 to Pineville back on 485 to 77 straight up to the Lake Norman and cross over to UNCC and take 85 back up to Concord.
