Commer cial strips are ubiquitous but rarely create places that encourage interper sonal contact, business opportunity, active transportation, and community i dentity. Yet their visibility; retail and restaurants, and inefficient land use provide fertile territory for creating a new kind of mixed use and con nected urban environment. Historically, policy for these corridors has take n three paths: neglect, roadway improvements, or replacement of existing de velopment patterns.
This session proposes a new theory of Corridor Urbanism that draws combines the antecedents of New and Landsca pe Urbanisms with the ideas articulated by Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown in their seminal work Learning from Las Vegas. It will apply these pr inciples to the Route 71B corridor in Fayetteville, Arkansas, a key corrido r with a commercial range from small free-standing shops to a declining reg ional mall; a rich history; general dissatisfaction over appearance and fun ction; and many opinions about the role of this corridor in its region.
The session will provide participants with an introduction to the concept and principles of Corridor Urbanism, an application to the specific contexts of Fayetteville, and a methodology that they can use to a pply Corridor Urbanism principles to their own community corridors.
