The idea of new urbanism has been around for a while. New urbanists focus on the need for communities and neighbohoods that are conducive to human interaction (walkability is important) rather than just ease of automobile traffic (i.e. suburban sprawl). Eric Jacobsen is a pastor in a new urbanism community and has a great book "Sidewalks in the Kingdom" that addresses how Christianity speaks to these kinds of issues. The video below is great.

Great video! This was a big trend when I lived in Denver.
