A front yard so green it lowers property values

Emergent Urbanism Network is a social media portal for emergent urbanists, a community of planners, designers, builders, thinkers and others who are enthusiastic about urbanism. Any member may post nodes or vote on them. The best nodes selected by the community float up to the top of their channel before decaying away to be replaced by new nodes. This makes the network at once a forum, portal, community and social network.

Traditional urban planning portals have relied on the central planning model of editors choosing what does or does not deserve attention. Emergent Urbanism Network recognizes that urban complexity is made by citizens, not planners, and relies on its citizens to decide what is relevant by providing a simple and clear process through which the network is grown.

To start, simply connect with your favorite social media account, then create nodes.
