| New Urbanism is an urban design movement that burst onto the
| scene in the late 1980s and early 1990s. New Urbanists aim to
| reform all aspects of real estate development. Their work affects
| regional and local plans. They are involved in new development,
| urban retrofits, and suburban infill. In all cases, New Urbanist
| neighborhoods are walkable, and contain a diverse range of
| housing and jobs. new Urbanists support regional planning for
| open space, appropriate architecture and planning, and the
| balanced development of jobs and housing. They believe these
| strategies are the best way to reduce how long people spend in
| traffic, to increase the supply of affordable housing, and to
| rein in urban sprawl. Many other issues, such as historic
| restoration, safe streets, and green building are also covered in
| the Charter of the New Urbanism, the movement's seminal document.

Here is the guy (Andres Duany) that designed the actual town that was used for much of the movie "Truman":
Note that Duany has written scathing criticisms of the "politically correct" mentality in liberal/academic architectural circles that resists a return to traditional/human-centered values in planning and development.
Of course I won't even mention how Ross' acute spiraling fascination with metaphysical glitter and sparkles is of extreme importance to this off-topic.
