Nuevo Len, Mexico, with help from the University of Texas, plans to build an urban village near the Texas border along the Rio Grande.
"Imagine a village of five neighborhoods separated by community gardens, where food is grown for the residents. Houses with rooftop systems collect rainwater and generate energy. A man pulls a cart carrying groceries. A couple bikes to a nearby park. People walk to church, children to school. Now picture that on a grander scale. What if a city of half a million people can be designed following the concept of traditional neighborhoods -- not suburbs -- that are less dependent on the automobile?"
