Abstract

"Continuum" piece on Maine's anti-sprawl movement, now called smart growth, which is beginning to define itself. The idea of recreating neighborhoods is being advocated by State Planning Office Director Evan Richert, and was complemented by the recent conference on downtowns, sponsored by Maine Preservation. The concepts of what makes a downtown, or a neighborhood, work are being redrawn by people like Kennedy Smith, who heads the National Trust for Historic Preservation's Main Street Center and by the new urbanists like Andres Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk.
