The program recognizes the efficiency and scalability of conventional development but is focused on broadening the palette beyond the standard real estate product types. Alternative approaches include downtown revitalization, smart growth, new urbanism, suburban town centers, transit-oriented development, green buildings, and conservation development. The focus is on creating special places that have many uses within walking distance of one another. It is about building sustainable places that minimize the ecological footprint of the built environment. It is also about building a sense of place that encourages housing for all income levels. And it is about creating long-term wealth to motivate investors to care about the quality of the built environment. Ultimately, it is about building places that we can, at many levels, feel proud of our role in creating.
