Street Pattern: Neighborhoods have a fine-grain network of streets. Most are slow-flow (narrow or undulating streets with buffering) or yield-flow streets (one shared lane) with on-street parking. Larger thoroughfares can act as a border for the neighborhood. A commercial main street may be in the center or at the edge (see Figure 5–1). See also the Streets section in Chapter 4 (pages 4–10 through 4–14).When arranged properly, these elements of traditional neighborhood form come together to create a quality place. If one or more elements are missing, the result is a place without much sense of place. Placemaking can help transform neighborhoods that are missing key elements over time.
