 Land&People, Spring 2001, Thinking Regionally--
A Conversation with Peter Calthorpe: The Trust for Public Land
In addition to planning and design work, his firm, Calthorpe Associates, works with communities to envision their future based on existing patterns of development -- process that can lead to big changes in how they choose to grow.
TPL is involved with Calthorpe Associates in "Smart Growth Twin Cities," a renewed effort, funded in part by the McKnight Foundation, to bring integrated solutions of the problems of sprawl in the Minneapolis/St. Paul region.
A regional perspective, Calthorpe argues, is central to designing communities that provide for conservation of land and wildlife, access to jobs and education, and opportunities for people to participate more equitably in civic life.

The Broads are a network of rivers and of lakes (Broads) in Norfolk and Suffolk.
Despite the construction of windpumps and dykes, the flooding continued and resulted in the typical Broads landscape of today, with its reedbeds, grazing marshes and wet woodland.
They are unevenly distributed; there are far more broads in the northern half of Broadland, and out of 50 or so broads, only 13 are open to navigation.

The carriage stopped beside him, and I saw the Calthorpe arms on the door as he opened it for the middle-aged occupant to alight.
No stations are planned for the Calthorpe Estate, although of course one could be built if there is a need later on.
Since 1810, when Calthorpe Road was made - making Five Ways into six, though the name has never been changed - we have allowed houses to be built, country mansions in all but position, and have helped in the development of the Estate's amenities.

 icBirmingham - Calthorpe opposed to sex club's plan   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Calthorpe Estates believes plans by Spearmint Rhino, in Hagley Road, to open and serve alcohol until 6am seven days a week will create conflict between the sex industry and the "high quality" Five Ways business district.
But the company admits it is powerless to act because a 36-year lease it granted to Spearmint Rhino in 1990 does not allow the landlord to prevent the extension of opening hours.
Calthorpe Estates is appealing instead to Birmingham City Council to refuse Spearmint Rhino's application to open between 10am and 6am Monday to Sunday.

This literature has bolstered a broad movement in the US that advocates shifting out of automobile hegemony, a movement that is often labeled 'New Urbanism' (CNU, 1998).
Aim and Scope of the Research As summarized by Calthorpe (1991), New Urbanist conceptualizations of the built environment are inclusive of both human-social systems and the natural environment, hence what he calls an 'ecology-community' approach.
Utilizing Calthorpe's (1991) New Urbanist theory and synthesizing it with geographically informed urban theory drawing from Harvey (1982 and 1989), Soja (1985), and Walker (1981), the approach of this paper views the relationship between urban built environments and society as dialectical.

Fregonese Calthorpe estimates a total of $45 million in public investment over 20 years, from rebuilding railroad trestles to building a parking garage to building the east-west Blount-Sevier boulevard; but would allocate $71 million over the same period.
Probably the biggest jaw-dropper in the whole Fregonese Calthorpe study is the suggestion, in the most aggressive of the three scenarios, of evicting Baptist Hospital in favor of something sexier, like a corporate headquarters.

Intense debate has erupted over whether Peter Calthorpe’s proposed “urban network” is an effective way to civilize the wide arterial roads that disrupt communities in the US and elsewhere.
Everyone drawn to New Urbanism seems to agree that the broad arterials produced by state and local transportation departments are a problem — they make it hard to knit communities together and to create comfortable, pedestrian-scale town centers.
But whether the Berkeley-based planner’s proposed alternative is a good solution has been strenuously argued since Calthorpe presented the urban network to CNU X in Miami Beach in June.
