How Art, Culture, and Community Drove Transit Oriented Development in Santa Fe
Little about The Railyard resembles how TOD takes place in most cities
Imagine you’re planning a Transit Oriented Development project for your city. Your first step is to decline a plan to construct a multi-million dollar mixed-use project; next, you involve more than 6,000 residents in the planning process; then you intentionally lease your anchor sites at below-market rents to an arts-based teen center, a contemporary arts organization, a Hispanic cultural center, and a farmers market.
Crazy, right?
