Transit-Oriented Development: Opportunities and Challenges
This chapter explores transit-oriented development (TOD) and its role in urban real estate growth, using examples from various cities to illustrate both successes and challenges. It discusses how streetcar projects can enhance walkability and attract development, while also critiquing the often superficial implementation of transit systems in North America. The conversation emphasizes the need for a coherent strategy in transit planning to effectively meet community needs and avoid the pitfalls of poorly integrated projects.
