Regulating Place cover

Tracing how codes arose when they did, and how they were adapted over time, the authors examine the increasing influence of regulatory codes over urban design and planning in the past century.

"No topic in urban design could be more controversial than standards for places. Regulating Place explores the relationship of public and private in the context of new approaches to guidelines, laws, and mechanisms of enforcement. This is an important collection of essays for practitioners, students, and teachers. Highly recommended.
