Everyone can take notice to the cookie-cutter housing that is springing up with every new neighborhood. This suburban utopia that is rapidly expanding from dense cities is great for families, but there are downfalls attached to these type of development. With neighborhoods quickly turning rural areas into suburban havens, there is less room to farm; which eventually leads to over farming and mineral leaching of the soil, as well as widening the gap that people have of their knowledge of where their food comes from.

In comparison with John Dewey's quote “The self is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of action, CA Johnson High School and its feeder schools embedded in the gentrified area would in all probability acknowledge that reconstruction of the Saxon Homes community did not harvest a ready-made school's capable of immediately producing proficient results on state standardized test. In alignment with the earlier integration schools highlighted in Jennifer Burns Stillman study entitled Tipping In: School Integration in Gentrifying Neighborhoods, the schools directly surrounding Celia Saxon, provided statistics on their demographics that also suggest that only one “racial group dominates the school’s culture.”

The viewers were given an overview of the existing issues and shown some examples of projects aimed at solving these issues in various cities across America. One issue profiled was the change in ethnic composition of suburban residents which was discussed as visits to Muslim-American, Latino and Asian-American communities took place. Showing various aspects of these communities in real time and comparing them to the beliefs about these same communities which were clearly untrue or changed has made the case for why suburban developments as intended are not a sustainable plan going forward. That set the stage for the final message as the need to revise the vision for new development and redevelopment with an emphasis on defining a sustainable vision which is both economically viable and incorporates the changes witnessed since the developments were built. Then the film showcased some regional best management practices that have addressed and solved a few of the developmental and infrastructure problems back in 2008, and also profiled Long Island as the first modern suburban

The homeowners of Westlake Village Condominiums recently voted to finance an estimated 6.4 million dollar association loan that will fund renovations of the building, and ensure that its codes are up to date. Because the HOA does not have the money to pay for the building's enhancements, homeowners will be responsible for funding this association loan by taking out their own loans, which could be demanded as soon as September 1st. These loans will be repaid monthly through the homeowners association, which is the driving force behind the renovation project. Only one bank – yet to be revealed – has expressed interest in financing the project, at an interest rate above 6%.

The South East Wedge of Edinburgh is selected as a sample case study for understanding issues associated with planned urban development in sustainable communities. The South East Wedge was designed as a sustainable living area that could accommodate the city's growing population. Core features included a "distinctive urban culture," "spatially compact form," "strong landscape framework," and a "high density of population" within multiple neighborhoods (Deakin, 2003, p. 139). Environmental friendliness and financial feasibility were also core goals of the development project, which was touted as being advanced and state of the art. In spite of the lofty goals of the project, Deakin (2003) points out that the South East Wedge development failed to live up to its core objective of sustainability.

New Urbanism, a burgeoning genre of architecture and city planning, is a movement that has come about only in the past decade. This movement is a response to the proliferation of conventional suburban development (CSD), the most popular form of suburban expansion that has taken place since World War II. Wrote Robert Steuteville, "Lacking a town center or pedestrian scale, CSD spreads out to consume large areas of countryside even as population grows relatively slowly. Automobile use per capita has soared, because a motor vehicle is required for nearly all human transportation"1. New Urbanism, therefore, represents the converse of this planning ideology. It stresses traditional planning, including multi-purpose zoning,
