Imagine a new neighborhood that harvests its own energy on site, recharges the watershed, encourages regional economic activity, and offers mixed-income housing connected by generous green spaces. Now imagine that this is possible in Rhode Island, where demographics and climate data make it clear that we need innovative approaches to housing, ecological, and economical challenges. Union Studio discusses their experience designing a regenerative neighborhood in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and the role of private and non-profit developers, policy makers, and the public have in bringing these kinds of ideas to New England.
