Community Green uniquely connects the past, present and future of planning for small open spaces around the narrative of internal reserves. The distinctive planned spaces are typically enclosed on every side, hidden within residential blocks, serving as local pocket parks and reflecting the evolving values of community life from the garden city movement to contemporary new urbanism. This book resuscitates the enclosed, almost secretive reserve from history as a distinctive form of local open space whose problems and potentialities are relevant to many other green community spaces. In so doing, it opens up even wider connections between localism and globalism, the past and the future, and for connecting community initiatives to broader global challenges of cohesion, health, food, and climate change. This fully illustrated book charts the outcomes and implications of this evolution across several continents, injecting human stories of civic initiatives, struggles and triumphs along the way. Community Green will be of interest to a wide readership interested in studying, managing and improving the quality of all small open spaces in the urban landscape"-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Garden cities. |=^A169970 650 0 Public spaces. |=^A252540 650 0 Neighborhoods. |=^A67465 650 0 City planning. |=^A12440 650 7 garden cities. |2aat 700 1 Freestone, Robert, |eauthor. |=^A462796 776 08 |iOnline version:Nichols, David, Associate Professor, 1956- |tCommunity green |dAbingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2024 |z9781003027720 |w(DLC) 2023022157 949 Order on Demand |wASIS |hJOYNER219 960 |o1 |s48.95 |uJSOC |zUSD 961 |fDMD |m138099 596 1 998 6312481
