After our recent lecture on New Urbanism, I did want to mention some online resources.
Another notable project within a few hours drive is the Storrs Center near UConn's compus. They have an official site up for this planned community.
Washington Town Center, here in NJ, has been written about plenty including this older piece saying it was a smart idea and this newer one pointing out that it has been too successful.
I also recently saw this piece on the new Dardenne Prairie, which is a little more from DPZ.
You could look at the firms like Rutgers-related A. Nelessen Associates or the (in)famous DPZ.
The Congress for the New Urbanism maintains an official presence online that includes projects and images.
What I don't have handy is any written critique of New Urbanism. Maybe next time...
