Abstract: The article is an attempt to depict to the Polish readers, especially those dealing with housing investment (but also to all specialists related to the property market), a phenomenon of the movement of the New Urbanism. In spite of near thirty-years history and its Polish roots, there have been almost no broader interest in that issue in Poland so far. A short history, ideas and rules of the New Urbanism were presented in the article. Furthermore, relying on examples of US. research, a crucial role of a quality of urban and architectural projects in the investment process is explained. Last but not least, one of goals of this article is to trigger a concern of a broader discussion about theory and practice of the New Urbanism movement, especially in the context of urban planning, land use, and property market in Poland.
