Strong Towns! Who Does it Take to (Physically) Build a Neighborhood?
The Neighborhood Evolution program as currently constituted includes three in-person seminars focused on the fundamentals of incremental development: Farming, Finance, and Form. This is followed by a year-long series of virtual sessions, aimed at providing a broad overview of development basics. This is broad, not deep, by design, says Anderson. The seminars will address questions such as, “Who do you get to look at your financials? How do you find a CPA and an attorney? How do you interview a bank as a rookie, to find out if they’re a good fit for what you need? How do you set up your construction management system? How do you find a property manager?”
