Abstract
"A Review Essay by Winter King* of Zoned Out: Regulation, Markets, and Choices in Transportation and Metropolitan Land-Use, by Jonathan Levine (RFF Press, 2006). In Zoned Out: Regulation, Markets, and Choices in Transportation and Metropolitan Land-Use, Jonathan Levine argues that the primary barrier to the development of high-density, mixed-use, transit-oriented development known as “smart growth” is not the lack of market demand for such development, or an innate American preference for suburban living. Rather, it is the current structure of land use regulation, which, in general, limits the density at which landowners may develop their property. Zoned Out concludes that governments do not need to adopt regulations that force smart growth, but instead must only liberalize current land use regulations in order to allow market-driven smart growth."
