Green Gallery

A reprise of sorts with another view of Denver's Highlands' Garden Village, showing its urban garden in the foreground. It also provides a commercial area, civic buildings, lots of green space, homes for seniors, and affordable housing, and is one of our cause's better ambassadors. "Gross": In several cases, I did not have convenient access to precise measurement of residential units per buildable acre, excluding commercially dedicated land. For these I simply took the total number of homes and divided by the development's total number of acres, for a quick calculation of gross density. These numbers are inherently conservative, since excluding commercial or non-buildable land from the calculation would yield higher density results.

To mitigate and compensate for the environmental and community impacts that can accompany compact development if we do not plan carefully - such as increased local emissions and traffic congestion, local stormwater runoff, and limited green space, among others - I believe we must aspire to not just good places but great ones. We should build to appropriate scale, in many cases with moderation; we should include green infrastructure; we should provide an array of transportation choices; and we should provide parks and civic amenities.

My sincere thanks to the talented photographers and videographers who created all of the outstanding images and videos. Our photographers enjoy seeing their work within a gallery. Our whole team also appreciate the work done by our photographers team and videographers team and congratulate them on their work.
