All architects, planners, city officials and residents should
be careful of what they propose without a consistent ability to measure and
evaluate the consequences. Intuition has never been a substitute for knowledge.
It has simply been a catalyst producing both success and failure. Land is an
irreplaceable source of life that continues to be squandered by promiscuous
experimentation and speculation. Pictures of success and failure do not convey
the information needed to repeat the first and avoid the second.
Consistent shelter capacity measurement, prediction and
evaluation is defined and explained in my new book, The Science of City
Design. It is available in e-book and paperback from Amazon.com.
