The 25 pages that link to New Urbanism, each with the reason it gives.
Urban planningCompared with: It offers a compact, traditional-neighborhood alternative to separated-use suburban development.
Transit-oriented developmentRelated: It shares walkability goals but does not necessarily make high-quality transit the organizing focus.
Land-use planningCompared with: It emphasizes neighborhood form and design within broader land-use decisions.
SuburbanizationCompared with: Its principles offer a compact, walkable alternative to car-oriented suburban layouts.
Urban renewalCompared with: It emphasizes neighborhood form and connectivity rather than clearance as an end in itself.
Postmodern architectureCompared with: It shares interest in historical forms but focuses more directly on urban planning and community design.
Regional planningCompared with: It emphasizes neighborhood form, while regional planning coordinates choices across a wider territory.
Jane JacobsRelated: Its goals overlap with neighborhood qualities Jacobs championed, though the movement developed later.
Urban designCompared with: It offers a distinct, movement-based approach to shaping neighborhoods.
Urbanization in ChinaCompared with: Its planning principles offer a contrast to car-oriented districts and large-scale expansion.
Planned cityCompared with: It offers a neighborhood-scale planning alternative to automobile-oriented modernist layouts.
Automobile dependenceCompared with: Its principles favor short trips and accessible public spaces over automobile-centered layouts.
Suburbanization in the United StatesCompared with: Its principles explicitly counter the separation and car dependence common in postwar suburbs.
Environmental designCompared with: It offers a defined planning movement rather than environmental design’s broader interdisciplinary scope.
Block (urban planning)Related: Its street and block patterns aim to support compact, pedestrian-oriented places.
Built environmentRelated: It advocates human-scaled development as a response to car-oriented layouts.
Compact cityRelated: New Urbanism shares compact-city goals but emphasizes neighborhood design and form.
Rem KoolhaasCompared with: Its preference for coherent, human-scaled neighborhoods contrasts with Koolhaas’s attention to fragmented metropolitan reality.
Spatial planningCompared with: It arose partly in opposition to automobile-oriented, low-density development patterns.
Urban developmentCompared with: It offers a design-led vision for shaping development at neighborhood scale.
Aldo RossiRelated: Its attention to durable urban patterns resonates with Rossi’s focus on city structure.
Architectural theoryCompared with: Its prescriptions provide a practical counterpoint to theories skeptical of design-led social reform.
Hippodamus of MiletusRelated: Its interest in connected street networks invites comparison with ancient grid-based planning.
The Death and Life of Great American CitiesRelated: Its principles overlap with Jacobs’s emphasis on density, mixed use, and pedestrian life.
Architecture in the United StatesCompared with: It arose partly in response to car-dependent patterns associated with postwar American development.
