Sadler, Debra Furr-Holden, Ella Greene-Moton, Brian Larkin, Moses Timlin, Dayne Walling, Thomas Wyatt
Abstract Right sizing has become an essential talking point in discussing next steps for postindustrial and shrinking cities as they struggle to maintain outdated, outsized infrastructure. Yet the literature has been clear that balancing economic and social objectives must be a key part of the discussion, especially given that historical patterns of disinvestment have disproportionately affected socioeconomically

Toward Accessibility-Based Planning Journal of the American Planning Association (IF 4.711) Pub Date : 2021-02-03 Xiang Yan
Abstract Problem, research strategy, and findings A growing consensus has formed among planners, especially planning scholars, that promoting accessibility is a major policy goal. However, efforts to promote accessibility-based planning face a conceptual impediment: a common assumption that equates the benefits of accessibility to travel cost savings (TCS). Starting from this assumption, many researchers

Committed and “Won Over” Parents in Vancouver’s Dense Family-Oriented Urbanism Journal of the American Planning Association (IF 4.711) Pub Date : 2020-11-06 Louis L. Thomas
Abstract Problem, research strategy, and findings As North American cities revitalize, policies generally assume high density will attract the childless, overlooking the needs of families with children. Here I examine the case of Vancouver (British Columbia, Canada), where since 1989 policies have explicitly supported parents in central densifying areas. Between 1996 and 2016, the city overall had

Social Distancing and Cultural Bias Journal of the American Planning Association (IF 4.711) Pub Date : 2020-10-23 Benjamin Davy
Abstract Social distancing (also called physical distancing) is a highly recommended intervention against the community spreading of the new coronavirus. Although social distancing is a prudent intervention, its implications and impacts are not. The new distancing rules affect personal space and create a new sense of what is considered clean or dirty. Mary Douglas, founder of Cultural Theory, has asserted
