Returning to Legacy Crossing

It's been a year since I was exploring development in Legacy Crossing. A year of a very down economy and a year post-Copenhagen of seeing international paralysis on carbon emissions.

I've renewed my interest in the southern parcel in Legacy Crossing and in developing it as model for the district.

Model of what? I'm looking for a succinct tag line. Perhaps "Net zero." I think that for heating and domestic hot water that might be achievable in row houses. For water on the landscape, maybe. Food production, no. Might it get the residents out of their cars, or into pluggable cars? Perhaps solar supplemented charging could be a feature.
