Car Free Planned Community
-
Rising from a 17-acre lot outside Phoenix, Arizona, Culdesac Tempe is billed as the first and only zero-driving community built from scratch in the U.S.: Its future residents are contractually forbidden from parking a vehicle within a quarter-mile radius of the site.
They’ll have to rely on other modes, including a bundle of discounted mobility services provided for in their monthly rent, according to project leaders.
The $170 million residential development will feature a plaza with scooter docks, car-share parking, and ride-hail pickup zones, with a light rail station across the street. When the first units open in July 2022, residents are set to receive complimentary access to a Lyft Pink subscription, preferred pricing for a fleet of Bird scooters, an Envoy car share membership, and free unlimited passes on the Valley Metro transit system.
I looked at the rents, they do not seem outrageous. Not cheap but not outrageous. USD$1600/month for a one bedroom

So a big apartment complex with nowhere to park your fucking car.
I feel like that's been invented already.
