Last week, we hosted the Association for Commuter Transportation at Culdesac Tempe.

By integrating a transportation portfolio from day one, we can reduce parking demand and unlock the land-use flexibility needed to deliver beautiful, walkable neighborhoods.

That's awesome! When you're not behind the windshield of a car, it's much easier to get 10k+ steps a day.

It’s not your fault that staying active feels so hard. In walkable cities like Paris or NYC, being active is just part of daily life.

We can bring that kind of walkability to every U.S. city. We just have to tap into the overwhelming demand.

In 2018, we bet on Americans’ desire for walkable living and got laughed out of the room.

Now, Culdesac Tempe is helping shift what's possible. New ASU research backs it up: 18% of U.S. car owners would definitely consider ditching their car, and another 40% are open it.

Walkable neighborhoods are the only scalable model in the United States that delivers what residents and cities actually want.

Transportation freedom means being able to choose the right mode for every trip, whether that’s transit, biking, walking, ride-hail, or driving yourself.

Not being forced to own a car.

Density without height works.

We’re bringing attainable homeownership to SW Atlanta with 1-bed townhomes starting in the $190Ksβ€”just a short walk to MARTA and the BeltLine.

This is what people-first, walkable development looks like.

Every city deserves more beautiful third places. Our shaded courtyards and plazas create space for neighbors to gather, even in a desert climate like Phoenix.

This is how we’re helping U.S. cities become more walkable, beautiful, and connected.

Great energy at Culdesac Tempe last night as we welcomed a delegation of housing leaders from Arizona and Seattle-King County for a conversation on accelerating housing production and walkable development.

Excited for what comes next.

The best way to address loneliness in our cities is to build walkable neighborhoods.

The U.S. needs more attainable retail spaces for small businesses.

Culdesac Tempe offers a spectrum of retail opportunitiesβ€”from pop-up tables at night markets to attainable first brick-and-mortar storefronts, all the way to full commercial leases.

Walkability makes it easier to connect with friends and neighbors, but it's illegal to build in the U.S.

Let's change that.

Walkability makes our cities more connected. It shouldn't be so hard to build.

Instead of structured parking, we should be building more plazas, courtyards, and local shops that Americans actually want.

Local businesses thrive on lively, walkable streets.

It should be easier to build them in the U.S.

Car-dependency makes it harder to connect with neighbors and harder for small businesses to survive.

Culdesac Tempe is showing how we can help our cities and businesses thrive with walkable design.

American cities like NYC and Chicago remain walkable because they were built before cars.

Culdesac is proving we can bring that same walkability back to today’s car-dependent cities.
