About the Book
This book imagines that by the year 2050, thousands of passengers will walk through the terminal gates of Spaceport America in order to board a hyper or supersonic flight. But there is one problem, currently there are no existing commercial flights and accommodations within a 25 mile radius to Spaceport America. Enter, Space Age Urbanism: A Masterplan for Spaceport America. This project attempts to provide future developers with the tools needed for “space age” developments, as it seeks to serve as a driver for a new type of architecture called “space-age” urbanism. A place where the rules for this master plan do not follow the same rules of a traditional city master plan. At its essence, this master plan acts as a medium connecting the 18,000 sq. mi. of land available for development in the Las Cruces desert basin, with other destinations worldwide. As such, this master plan should be seen as a handbook, a handbook that anticipates future developments in response to transportation and technological advancements at Spaceport America.
