Cohousing-L Mailing List: More on Making Community

[J . Massengale (J.Massengale]

Harry Pasternak --

After sending you my last post, your standards for making a community came
in. They're very good, as far as they go. I don't know why you always feel
the need to be so negative about other things, though.

I understand that most architects, landscape architects, planners and
developers have not been following your rules very well (interesting that you
continually single out the architects to hammer on), but there also ARE many
architects who are following your rules, and more. Did you see the Newsweek
cover story, "Bye Bye Suburban Dream, 15 Ways to Fix the Suburbs"?
