The Village: A 5,000-10,000 population, self-contained, higher density community built on 100-400 acres around multiple plazas with cafes, shops, workplaces and artist guilds and no cars within. With its own local economy to enable it to thrive, with affordable housing provided through parallel real estate markets, and beautiful buildings using environmentally sustainable design, the Village provides a wonderful, authentic and fulfilling place for all ages and diverse peoples, carefully balancing public and private, where everything is within a ten minute walk. This handbook is for people who want to live there; For enlightened investors who want to help make it happen; For designers who can help visualise what it should look like; and For lateral thinking public officials convinced there must be a better way. *** NOTE: This version printed by higher-cost Lulu claims a $20 premium over our other print sources.
