The post-car real estate development company known as Culdesac approached Opticos Design to apply their expertise in walkable communities and Missing Middle Housing to the first car-free neighborhood designed for shared mobility and built from scratch in the United States.
Located just 2.5 miles from downtown Tempe, Culdesac Tempe features zero residential parking on a 16-acre infill site next to a light rail station. The car-free neighborhood is largely driven by innovative mobility technology that makes it easier for people to give up their car. The neighborhood will be 100% rental, thus providing a different approach to multifamily development.

The unprotected bike lane next to a two lane is kind of a shame though

[@SoundtrackSensation]

Why did y'all include the sound of automobiles if this is a car-free community?

[@Scynthescizor]

There was a road with some light traffic, presumably to show that cars Could access the community, though in a very restricted way. Note the lack of a constant highway hum.
