Portland, Oregon's formula for walkability and transit-oriented development


Note at the end of the video, Peter Calthorpe talks about suburbia's needs for large yards since there is little public space in that sort of land use pattern. What I have always liked about Lake Worth is the smaller yards and the large amount of public open space that we have available to us, much of it on the water. It is part of the "good bones" that people talk about which will serve us well as we go into the future.
