Abstract:
As these epigraphs suggest, the neighborhood is a central concept in the
design professions (architecture, planning, landscape architecture) and
in those enterprises (such as real estate development, appraisal, and
finance) whose practices or policies define the context within which
city building takes place. Like other such keywords (for example community
and suburb) the meaning ascribed to neighborhood has varied over time and
the use of the term in one period or moment has been determined by that
particular context and the intended audience.
