They are very knowledgeable talking heads, but I think the viewer needs visuals to go with it, especially where they are discussing something real and 'concrete' like the various townhouse distances from the curb, height, etc.

Shame about the quality of the audio. Love the message.

Since I've been interested in passenger rail lately, comments about codes remind me a lot about the regulations about trains that have caused a lot of trouble in the U.S. -- We require much heavier train vehicles than most countries in Europe. This is supposed to help with crashworthiness, but has made it so it's very hard to make an fast, inexpensive, cheap-to-run train in this country. Somewhat fortunately, I think most of the regulations about that are at the federal level rather than local

I agree...the codes have created ugly urban sprawl!!! New Urbanism is a big step in the right direction.

The codes! The codes have done as much to ruin our communities as any war might have.

@alanhowitzer BEST COMMENT ever!! Some are FOOLED that New Urbanism = urban government control. NOT TRUE!! It gives more freedom for transit, living, and choice. Critics like Wendell Cox and Randall O Toole have been MISLEADING people that NU is control, but its about giving people options. For years we had big box store, auto, asphalt, and oil lobbyist and public planners to control the way we live setting up NASTY codes and laws to create such an UNATTRACTIVE landscape..

Nice comment, and I'm currently debating someone with the 'government control' mentality on Grist. Google "Grist + the future we want" and you'll see what I mean.

Can you show me some links instead by giving me an e-mail?
And also... Are you are aware on how misleading the critics are. I mean they blame our global economic crisis on New Urbanism... Can you believe it?
