Shaping the City with Roger K. Lewis
http://thekojonnamdishow.org/shows/2008-11-20/shaping-city-roger-k-lewis
Most cities are governed by complex zoning codes -- rules that divide the city into designated areas for residential and commercial development. But aesthetics aren't always a priority for those writing zoning laws, and some architects and urban designers say that's a problem. We explore a movement to replace traditional zoning codes with a "form-based" approach that allows greater freedom for determining building use and style.
