The six Ds of transit-oriented development emphasize sustainable, transit-friendly urban living, fostering vibrant, accessible communities while discouraging unnecessary driving. This approach, influenced by insights from TransLink and Michael Shiffer, focuses on destination planning, optimal distances, pedestrian-centric design, judicious density distribution, diversity in land use, and effective demand management, striving for well-connected and environmentally conscious urban environments. https://lnkd.in/gWMwpPHc #TransitOrientedDevelopment #UrbanSustainability #EcoFriendlyLiving #SmartUrbanPlanning #SustainableCommunities

Heritage conservation makes sense for the environmental pillar of sustainability, and also the social and economic pillars.

“In recent years, the conversation around #sustainability has broadened to include #heritage preservation and the retrofit of existing buildings as one of the most effective ways to achieve sustainability goals. Heritage and sustainability go hand-in-hand, and there are many different aspects to heritage preservation that are integral to achieving a truly green urban environment.”
