I wouldn’t of though of North America is an emerging country. But I like your point, you might want to look at “Made for Walking: Density and Neighborhood Form” which looks at developed areas, and in my opinion highlights key elements such as landmarks and green-space. Although, looking outside can sometimes mean you can gain better perspectives that can be implemented locally.

The projects included were all selected through the Urban Age project, which focused on cities in the developing world. Hence, no Portland. But City Repair is an awesome organization, for sure! Did you see that they are organizing a Village Building Convergence later this month? Info: http://www.facebook.com/villagebuildingconvergence

Wowww… No Portland and City Repair mention? That’s like writing a book about high technology centers and not including Silicon Valley…
