Abstract
What are the essential characteristics that constitute historic American neighbor-
hoods? Do current regulations promote developments that exhibit these essential
characteristics? In this thesis I analyze two historic neighborhoods in an effort to un-
cover their architectonic principles. By identifying the key components that comprise
these places, we can critically analyze whether regulations, such as Historic Preserva-
tion Ordinances and the SmartCode, are adequately designed to govern development
practices of residential neighborhoods.
