Imagine your city a more enjoyable place to live for people of all ages. The Denver Metro City Design Competition welcomes high school students to participate in the scholarship category. Younger students can compete with the high school students or participate in a fun category. This year's project is designing a pocket neighborhood. The goal is to rethink the typical neighborhood design in your city to better accommodate more families raising children and older adults with greater social interaction opportunities.
Here you’ll find information about small-scale neighborhoods that make a big difference in the quality and health of our lives. You’ll get an overview of key ideas about pocket neighborhoods, look at case studies and site plans, learn about innovative zoning codes, read blog entries from Ross Chapin and others in the field, follow the latest media offerings, research archives, download media materials, discover tools to improve community dynamics and decision-making, and link to related publications, organizations and online resources.
