If you have less than 100 intersections per square mile, you have NO CHANCE of building a walkable place there. ~Rick Hall #GuildSummit25

For something to be truly urban it must serve more than one function in the city. ~Sara Bega #GuildSummit25

Charles Brewer set out to build Las Catalinas, one of his top goals was to build it as a town for completely free-range kids. And context was king. ~Sara Bega #GuildSummit25

In a place as intricate as Las Catalinas, if every architect was trying to make big moves, it would be chaos. So we steered them to smaller moves like Gifts to the Street. ~Sara Bega #GuildSummit25

Preservation isn’t just about individual buildings; it’s about groupings of buildings. Lose enough of them, and you lose the urbanism. ~Gary Brewer #GuildSummit25

Planners have zoned our cities into intolerable zones of dullness <Jane Jacobs quote> ~Gary Brewer #GuildSummit25

If anyone pulls off a completed real town in one lifetime, that’s an awesome accomplishment! We really need more Town Founders. ~Aaron Lubeck #GuildSummit25

Quiet neighborhood structure does not occur with endless streets. ~Douglas Duany #GuildSummit25

The green block translates into walkability and walkability translates into sustainability, and creates great places for children. ~Douglas Duany #GuildSummit25

If you want to do a market street, make it very narrow where you don’t have to cross a lot of traffic. And make the buildings narrow. Don’t chase national retailers; have many small businesses. ~Douglas Duany #GuildSummit25

New Urbanism has built-in advantages: when well-done, people tend to value it more highly, plus there’s only so much of it. Build lovable and durable places and they tend to serve you a lot better. The downside is they tend to be front-loaded. ~Ward Davis #GuildSummit25

With New Urbanism, we’re building things that are more responsible and more durable. Over time, that serves us well. ~Ward Davis #GuildSummit25

Build places that endure and the numbers will too.

An ADU is a small apartment; a Guest Suite doesn’t have a full kitchen, and therefore doesn’t count as a dwelling unit. ~John Anderson #GuildSummit25

A starter home is designed for a couple. Your first move-up is for space for the kids; the second is to have a home-office. At empty-nest time, you might move down. If you’re in the place you want to be, you don’t want to have to move at these points ~John Anderson #GuildSummit25

Key to the Next-Level Starter Home is to design it in such a way that it gets treated the same way in finance as ordinary single-family homes. ~John Anderson #GuildSummit25
