Any city, Albuquerque included, has to be very careful applying form based codes as regulatory praxis. The concept of form based code invokes a city where, quoting Evan McKenzie, “homogeneity, exclusiveness, and exclusion are the foundation of social organization” (McKenzie, 1994, p. 177). Hence, my argument is that this model of regulation counteracts diversity of people, ideas, and possibilities. The concept of form based code basically won’t apply to the premises of urbanization.
