“Urban Planning and Design Criteria” by Joseph De Chiara and Lee Koppelman.

 If ever there was a book describing everything about physical spaces and facilities in a city, this would be it. Messrs. Chaira and Koppelman have assembled sketches, statistics and descriptions of a wide range of planning elements and physical facilities… quite an achievement. 

The initial book was published in 1969, this second edition six years later. A third edition was published in 1981/82. While some of the ideas may be dated, the dimensions and statistics for the many facilities are still relevant. Ball field sizes have not changed. The populations of elementary schools may have, but this book gives a number to start with to be modified as you go along.
