Thesis (M.S.)--State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry, 2002.

This study investigates how human scale connections can be provided or improved within a suburban community. The planning and design process incorporated the traditionally considered physical characteristics of the community and, through community participation, the concerns and expectations of the people who live there. Using one community as a case study, aspects of the existing conditions, both physical and regulatory, which support or inhibit pedestrian and bicycle connections were researched and documented. Through participatory workshops, using mapping, questionnaires and brainstorming methods, community members were active participants in the process, contributing data on the existing walking/bicycling habits, and their perceptions of benefits, costs and methods of improving humans scale connections. From analysis and synthesis of the data, design objectives and two complementary design approaches were developed and presented to community members.
