ACCOMMODATING URBAN DEVELOPMENT WHILE PRESERVING CLOSE-IN NATURAL LANDMARKS (ABRIDGMENT)
The importance in the life of cities of preserving open space and saving endangered natural landforms is examined. The spatial development of Columbus, Ohio, and the effort to preserve that city's natural topographic features in conjunction with development are cited as an example. The part played by the concept of transfer of development rights in preserving natural landmarks is also discussed. (Author)
