{ <br /> '!-. . :::'-,V,V 'co <br /> 00:7),,,10::::: <br /> : � 4 `' 6.t <br /> . ; e,"2 s <br /> The Urban Land Institute hopes that the ten principles for reinventing subur- <br /> ban strips presented in this report will act as a strategic guide for commu- <br /> nities and developers around the country as they seek solutions to the problems <br /> of commercial sprawl, deterioration, obsolescence, and congested highways. <br /> Communities have an unprecedented opportunity to harness the tremendous <br /> market success of suburban strip development and translate this success into <br /> better performing community assets. The results will be more livable and sus- <br /> tainable communities, environments that are more adaptable to the emerging <br /> '' new face of retail, and property values that are enhanced as market demand <br /> • matures. <br /> ULI's ten principles are designed to be universally applied. However, it is antici- <br /> pated that the specific courses of action to be taken by individual communities <br /> will vary widely within this strategic framework. Success will not be easy or <br /> ' fast- there are no quick fixes to what has been one of the most intractable <br /> development problems of the past 50 years. But the tasks are doable, the prob- <br /> lems are solvable, and the strips are salvageable. The job must be started today, <br /> however, to correct the mistakes of the past, repair tattered and dysfunctional <br /> areas of the present, and provide a framework for future growth that incremen- <br /> tally reinvents suburban strips for the 21st century. <br /> '"111 <br /> b •f <br /> „ 4 M1 <br /> � £ Y,w�r <br /> to �._ •ipd ■ 1► r 'I'.:. <br /> 4. i` <br /> m <br /> .
