Community design and green infrastructure connection.
cape town
The following represents research and learning that will help promote the reconnection with green infrastructure within communities and neighborhoods:
- Learn how urban patterns promote connection to local renewable resources, to its sense of place, and to regional context.
- Learn how community (or public) space, transportation strategy, and livablecommunity standards are improved by connection to the regional ecological model.
- Learn how the orientation of streets and buildings helps improve comfort and reduce discomfort in towns and within buildings.
- Learn if building codes are compatible with healthy building design, material reuse, deconstruction, and green industry standards.
- Indicate the percentage of the building’s users who will travel to site by public transit (either bus, subway, light rail, or train), carpool, bicycle, or on foot.
- Connect pedestrian pathways with other public systems—for example, greenways (microclimate cooling, habitat, neighborhood-edge definition) or blueways (flood control, aquifer recharge)—so that there is connectivity, efficient use of public funds, and an improved civic realm.
