Abstract：

Since 1970s, Eco-cities have experienced the evolution process from concept to evaluation system to action, which is also the epitome of the pragmatic evolution of American urban planning. The paper takes eco-city as an example to study the evolution of urban lanning in the USA. Eco-cities have experienced four stages: concept exploration, goal setting, evaluation, perfect and pragmatic promotion. Now the concept of eco-city in the USA has also produced new features and trends: the objective is more focused on ecological transformation, innovation, social communication and affordable housing; the action is more targeted and systematic, and encourages more diverse groups to participate. Learning from these experiences is conducive to promoting China’s eco-city construction. By summarizing the rules of pragmatic evolution of eco-city and following the development trend, the cities in China will achieve the goal of sustainable development.
