Title: Edge City, Just off the Interstate: Boon or Bane?
Accession Number: 01029587
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: This article briefly discusses the evolution of edge cities, which were organized largely around major interstate highways, and the future challenge of protecting interstate highways from losing excess service to unplanned growth. It is proposed that regional strategies are needed to protect such scarce transportation capacities by containing and clustering commercial growth as much as possible, which also will improve the sustainability of suburban commercial centers.
