If you ever are in the position to design a new neighborhood,
and you've seen this video...
and you're still doing it wrong, you would either be a idiot or a #ForProfit criminal.
With a few, remarkably cheap guide lines, your design will be so much better.
1) Solar orientation [ #PassiveSolarDesign ]
2) [Rain-] Water storage in water tanks; the excess storm water in basins [ #Wadi #Swale]
3) No garages -> This one I [JdeB] find a bit problematic. How about charging EV's. Good and solid transport alternatives should be provided. This also means a #WalkableCity . A #15MinCity <-
4) Less roads [always a good thing]
"So it's really less of an issue of money to make a good neighborhood than it is an issue of intelligence and information"
