American Makeover Episode 2: SEASIDE, THE CITY OF IDEAS

Explore the city they call "the cradle of New Urbanism" with the man who helped design it 30 years ago, Andrés Duany. In Episode 2 of American Makeover, Duany 'interprets' Seaside on a walking tour, showing how many of the groundbreaking ideas it birthed were almost accidental byproducts of an attempt to build a town while totally avoiding debt. It's an approach now known as incremental urbanism. American Makeover is a six-part web series on new urbanism, the antidote to sprawl.
