This book has come none too soon for every one of us. -MICHAEL MCKEEL, developer Building a neighborhood is about having a vision and understanding how all the pieces and layers fit together. Skipping over a key detail or two is the difference between a subdivision and a neighborhood. Ross Chapin understands these details and his Pocket Neighborhoods book will give you that understanding too. -M.

CASEY LAND, developer There is no greater expression of neighborliness than showing kindness to someone you may never know. We can give gifts to strangers in person, of course, but our buildings can do it, too. Imagine what your neighborhood would be like if every home and shop gave a gift to the street! Wouldn't it encourage you to walk more, where you could savor those gifts, rather than just zipping by in a car? -Steve Mouzon, architect & planner, The Original Green   Roman tubs step aside.
