Preferred term

mixed-use development  

Definition

  • On any given day, suburban Americans are found traversing numerous roads, intersections, and parking lots to run errands, journey to work, and participate in daily life. Automobile dependency is experienced by a majority of the population—enforced by regulatory processes and building practices that segregate land uses and disconnect residences, retailers, services, and employers.
