The Census As A Call To Action, David J. Barron, Gerald E. Frug
The Census As A Call To Action, David J. Barron, Gerald E. Frug
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article argues that we misinterpret the Census figures showing the continued growth of the suburbs and increase in populations of some cities and not others. While many, including a Harvard economist, contend that this is a purely a result of consumer preference, this article concludes that this pattern is more likely a result of legal rules promoting sprawl which have been unchanged for 50 years. The article states that this new census data should be a wake-up call for state law reform which will no longer constrain and define local government.
City Life And New Urbanism, Ray Gindroz
City Life And New Urbanism, Ray Gindroz
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article discusses the importance and reintroduction of urban centers as areas of continuing development, information exchange and health in cities and suburbs. It first comments on the decay of urban centers as a result of the post-World War II push to build towns and cities which were more isolated, fragmented and anti-urban. New urbanism began in the 1970s and 80s to create neighborhoods and urban centers rather than scattered developments and has successfully continued to this day. This article identifies the design principles of these urbanists and how they are put into practice, including a case study of Park …
Eras, Daniel Solomon
Eras, Daniel Solomon
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article discusses the different eras of development of the American town. The first era was a result of the agrarian grid. The second era started in 1938 when the Federal Housing Administration began working on a national code. The article identifies these sprawling second era towns as deficient. A third era is now underway and is heavily influenced by the first era towns.
Making The Good Easy: The Smart Code Alternative, Andres Duany, Emily Talen
Making The Good Easy: The Smart Code Alternative, Andres Duany, Emily Talen
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article advocates for a new, fundamentally different plan for how cities should be coded, the Smart Code. It links urbanism and environmentalism and is strongly aligned with smart growth and sustainability. The Smart Code is offered as an alternative to the current anti-urban, conventional codes which are rigid and focus on single-use zones that separate human living space from the natural environment, as illustrated by the sprawl.
Maryland's Next Smart Growth Initiative: The Next Steps, Parris N. Glendening
Maryland's Next Smart Growth Initiative: The Next Steps, Parris N. Glendening
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article discusses Maryland's Smart Growth and Neighborhood Conservation Initiative, the nation's first statewide, incentive-based program to reduce the impact of urban sprawl. It has been used as a model by other states and espouses the notions that no growth is bad and the economy and environment are intertwined. Maryland attempts to change the bottom line of development decisions by making it more attractive and less costly to build in designated growth areas. The article identifies the next steps in Maryland's Smart Growth initiative and concludes that Maryland and the United States must be successful in these and similar efforts …
Florida's Downtowns: The Key To Smart Growth, Urban Revitalization, And Green Space Preservation, John T. Marshall
Florida's Downtowns: The Key To Smart Growth, Urban Revitalization, And Green Space Preservation, John T. Marshall
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article reviews Florida's growth management system, which has spurred suburban development, and its negative impact on Florida's cities. As Florida's governor and legislature have turned their focus to this issue, this article evaluates policy recommendations to limit Florida's suburban sprawl and invigorate its urban centers.

From Harlem To Havana: Sustainable Urban Development Symposium - Environmental Law And Sustainable Development , Sheila R. Foster
Faculty Scholarship
Consider two remarkable places: Harlem, New York and Old Havana, Cuba. These are two different neighborhoods, cities, countries, political systems, economies, and cultures. Yet these two neighborhoods are bound together by a common phenomenon unlimited by geography or differences in political and economic systems. The global prosperity of the last two decades has created historic opportunities to usher in development and revitalization efforts in neglected urban areas across the world! Governments, along with the private sector, have moved capital back to cities or neighborhoods that became endangered from years of disinvestment, lack of economic opportunities, and inadequate access to essential …

Within a five-minute walk of the Stony Brook subway stop in the Jamaica Plain section of Boston, you can encounter the following:
- A renovated industrial site of about five acres and sixteen buildings that serves as a business incubator for small firms that receive technical assistance from the Jamaica Plain Neighborhood Development Corporation (JPNDC), a nonprofit community development corporation, which is also housed there. Known as the Brewery after its former proprietor, a beer-maker, the complex is owned by a nonprofit subsidiary of JPNDC.
- A 44,000-foot "Stop & Shop" supermarket. The market opened in 1991 after years in which the …
Smart Growth And American Land Use Law, Richard Briffault
Smart Growth And American Land Use Law, Richard Briffault
Faculty Scholarship
The smart growth movement that emerged in the late 1990's seeks to change the way Americans think about growth, development, and urban planning. From a legal perspective, smart growth directly challenges several fundamental aspects of American land use law.
Substantively, smart growth attacks two goals that have been hallmarks of American land use law for more than three-quarters of a century: (1) decongestion, that is, reducing population density and dispersing residents over wider areas; and (2) the separation of different land uses from each other. Both decongestion and separation of uses were enshrined in the Standard Zoning Enabling Act …
Judicial Activism In The Regulatory Takings Opinions Of Justice Scalia, J. Peter Byrne
Judicial Activism In The Regulatory Takings Opinions Of Justice Scalia, J. Peter Byrne
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
If the question is whether the Court's recent property rights decisions represent unwarranted judicial activism, my answer is an unequivocal "Yes!" Explaining why requires some care. After all the jurisprudential battles of the recent past, it is hard to state what makes a decision "activist," let alone unwarrantedly so.
Zoning, Taking, & Dealing: The Problems And Promise Of Bargaining In Land Use Planning, Erin Ryan
Zoning, Taking, & Dealing: The Problems And Promise Of Bargaining In Land Use Planning, Erin Ryan
Erin Ryan
Municipal land use bargaining may imply as many problems as it heralds promise, but it is widely acknowleged as the universal language of land use planning. Planners and scholars agree that public-private negotiation plays a central role in the vast majority of local land use decision-making. At least in part, this is a result of the peculiar attributes of the resource at issue. Land is, perhaps, the ultimate nonfungible. Each parcel of land possesses unique characteristics not only in its physical attributes, but also by virtue of its location, and its proximity to other unique parcels. Moreover, land uses implicate …
