Broadway Valdez is all large lots (former car dealerships etc), we still don't know how to do something like this with normal sized parcels. They require help in zoning, building codes and financing.
But if we ever cracked that nut we could imagine a thousand Broadway Valdezes.
the @cayimby.bsky.social team took a tour of the Broadway Valdez neighborhood in Oakland, one of the most successful specific plan areas in the state which has produced 4500 new homes in the past decade
planning focused on public realm improvements instead of micromanaging the new buildings
