This paper examines the comparative economic returns of ex-urban conventional and “new urbanist” development strategies. It is based on the analysis of seven hypothetical case studies designed by the author, reflecting site conditions, costs and constraints characteristic of the Middle Atlantic region. Initial work leading to this paper was carried on in graduate research courses at the University of Maryland in 1993 and 1994. In the first phase, we examined the urban design “rules” which characterize traditional settlement patterns in our region, and suggested the benefits which would accrue from adopting these “rules” as a basis for a regional rural growth management policy based on village and hamlet zoning. The findings and recommendations of this work were published in the fall of 1994 by the Maryland Office of Planning.’
