Maryland Sprawl Series: Suburb - Density - City - Village

"Right now, more than a million of Maryland's 6 million acres have been developed; roughly a million are preserved in some way. At stake is the remaining 4 million. By 2025, another half million acres of open land will be lost to development, according to the latest state projections, resulting in an almost 50 percent increase in central Maryland's developed land... Growth is inevitable - and welcome. But it raises fundamental questions: Where will these people live? Close together or far apart? Inside the state's two beltways or on its dwindling farmlands? Along expanded mass transit routes or by a growing network of roads?"
