Maybe we have finally found a positive result of urban sprawl. When population flight left the urban cores of many mid-sized
The Cleveland EcoVillage project is located about 3.5 miles west of downtown
The Cincinnati's urban ecovillage, The Enright Ridge Urban Ecovillage, is located about 4 miles west of downtown Cincinnati.
The community's active members work mainly through the four committees that residents created. These committees focus on various relevant issues, from how to renovate and resell homes to the best ways to install solar water heating and provide organic produce. The Enright Ridge Urban Eco-Village is always looking for people interested in moving to the neighborhood as well as organizations interested in assisting us in our goals. Specifically, we are looking for those willing to join a group of caring, energetic people and help to: * deepen a sense of community * build a neighborhood of choice * model a new experience in urban living * explore alternative energy technologies * form a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) * Experience oneness with nature in the heart of the city
The best part about these urban ecovillages? They are situated in real neighborhoods with a plethora of services at hand at a price that not just the wealthy among us can afford. From: http://www.treehugger.com/files/2007/08/old_industrial.php
