Five StarsBy Richard MartinezI refer to this book constantly while designing.2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Cullen is a god of architectureBy Paul AndersonThis book has changed my life as it relates to the "gambits" of making an inventive street work. Other books cover enclosure and ending the street with a focul point. This book goes into so much more depth. The challenge for me is to take these largely urban ideas and apply them to a suburban environment (where I do my work) but that isnt Cullens fault. The qualities that go into a good street will probably never change. Cullen catologed them for us here 40 or 50 years ago and these ideas; the fundementals; will never change.
