I understanding the Stephens Landing community is a neotraditional/new urban planned development. What does that mean?
Our Community by Design Neotraditional/New Urban Development aka Traditional Neighborhood Development History • Neotraditionalism or new urbanism arose in the U.S. in the early 1980s and continues to reform many aspects of real estate development and urban planning. • Features planned communities based on a concept that promotes walkable neighborhoods that contain a range of housing, commercial, play, and work space. • Communities designed around the fact that people would rather walk, ride a bicycle, or take the bus than drive. • The only reason why people drive so much, as the theory goes, is that our residential areas are so poorly designed. • The concept looks to the American cities of the 1920s, where people did walk, bicycle, or use mass transit much more than today. • Urban planning reached a level of competence in the 1920s that was absolutely mind-boggling. • Instead of segregating uses as communities do today, early twentieth century cities contained mixtures of stores, homes
