Sustainable Built Environments Senior Capstone / This paper discusses the theory of transit oriented development and attempts to create an effectually structured set of best practices through the study and modification of the documentation that currently exist. To identify the core elements or “principles” that go into constructing a transit oriented development plan. To do this a [deconstructive] qualitative survey of more than 30 projects or municipal planning documents that self-identified as transit oriented was conducted. The result was six goals that were deemed essential to the creation of “good” transit oriented development. The six goals were then combined with empirical research from academic and practicing professionals in the field to form recommendations for new best practices.
