01 · THE CHALLENGE
APTA needed a report that made the case for transit as a driver of innovation districts. The research covered three case study regions, each with maps, data tables, and economic findings, and the report had to read well for elected officials and business leaders, not just planners.
02 · OUR APPROACH
We designed a structured layout with bold numbered chapter openers, a clear table of contents, and a consistent treatment for each case study so readers could compare regions easily. Custom district maps, tables, and sidebar callouts carried the data, and city photography on the cover and back set the tone.
03 · THE RESULT
A professional, consistent national publication that APTA released publicly and continues to host on its website.
