We’ll discuss those components that make up beloved mixed-use cities and towns, how they work, and why they matter. We’ll explore a variety of housing types – including missing middle types – that energize neighborhoods and make them more vibrant. We’ll discuss the critical differences between building these types – which may be subtle differences from the outside but make a huge difference for the type’s performance in the marketplace either for sale or rent. We’ll discuss how the building codes impact the public realm, and provide examples of how zoning codes and building codes might conflict. Finally, we’ll discuss the impact of mobility choice on land yield, and why Transit-Oriented Development makes for more efficient, stronger communities.
