Dense housing and commercial buildings located within proximity to public transportation are the main ingredients for a transit-oriented development (TOD). Yet, it is often difficult for cities to bring TOD to scale, particularly in a manner that improves all residents' ability to travel to places of work and education, access services in the community, and sustain wealth. The Center for Transit-Oriented Development, Living Cities, and the Boston College Institute for Responsible Investment assembled a group of representatives from government, nonprofits, financial institutions, and philanthropy to explore opportunities and identify strategies for implementing equitable, sustainable TOD across the country.
