Review # 1 was written on 2011-12-12 00:00:00 Sean Tiernet A good guide into how density shapes cities. Lots of illustrative pictures and a corresponding explanation make this a good reference. Hard to look at cities the same way.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-08-06 00:00:00 Jerrod Hall If I was reviewing this book on the text alone it would get two stars. But the main story of this book is translated through its pictures. The public can have a difficult time "visualizing density," and the many different types of design that can can enhance high-density projects -- whether it's the surrounding street pattern, the use of clustering to encourage open space, or how high-density projects can fit into existing neighborhoods. But, it's not all about high density -- this book illustrates the good and bad of sprawl. I had the song "Little Boxes" stuck in my head after looking at Sun City. I think this book could be a useful tool when discussing the whats' and hows' of the "D" word.
