Most cities and towns in North America are zoned almost entirely as “single-family residential.” This means that when they are fully built-out every farm, field, and forest is developed. These communities will always be car-oriented, sprawling, and too low-density to support public transit. However, this is not the only way: abundant housing advocates are increasingly coalescing around the need for “new towns,” large master-planned communities that can happen through adaptive zoning innovation. These new towns consider the range of transportation, water/sewer, electricity, waste, safety, education, and other infrastructures while allowing for the creation of places that are mixed-use, walkable, bikeable, and dense enough to support public transit.  This symposium will bring together creative thinkers from around the world who are advancing knowledge in these areas, helping to shape a new kind of planning and design practice—one that embraces innovative approaches to housing crises through community-based solutions.
