While there has been considerable attention by practitioners and academics to development in urban cores and new neighborhoods on the periphery of cities, there has been little attention to the redesign and redevelopment of existing suburbs. The authors, both architects and noted experts on the subject, show how development in existing suburbs can absorb new growth and evolve in relation to changed demographic, technological, and economic conditions.  \u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eRetrofitting Suburbia\u003c\/b\u003e was named winner in the Architecture \u0026amp; Urban Planning category of the 2009 American Publishers Awards for Professional and Scholarly Excellence (The PROSE Awards) awarded by The Professional and Scholarly Publishing (PSP) Division of the Association of American Publishers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cb\u003eEllen Dunham-Jones, AIA,\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of architecture and urban design in the College of Architecture at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta.
