A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Conclusions
We discuss the applicability of the so-called market urbanism based in the Japanese experience to other jurisdictions. We argue that imposing strong limits to on-street parking would be highly beneficial and relatively straightforward in Continental Europe. We review contemporary opinions of commentators regarding some aspects of market urbanism, such as upzoning, mixed zoning and maximum parking rules to American cities. Most public goods in the US are provided and funded locally and, implicitly, planning rules are used to exclude outsiders from the enjoyment of such goods as education, health or leisure. We conclude that market urbanism could only thrive in the US as a result of a deep structural reform and cultural change.
