A few of my faves:

~ fmmetroplex will be surprised to learn that one of my favorites is www.carfree.com

~ And don't forget J.H. Crawford's "Carfree Design Manual" - the blurb says that "(Crawford's book) makes city design accessible to everyone." This is a vast understatement.

~ "Townscape" by Gordon Cullen. First published in 1961, this book finally opened my eyes to the wonderful possibilites inherint in thoughtful and sensitive urban design. Cullen unveiled an exquisite urban language that I didn't realize existed. I'd always been crazy about towns and cities, but Townscape gave me a much keener appreciation for the urban spaces that most of us are now living in. It was reprinted a few years ago.

I simply can't say enough about this book.
