The proposal reflects the green development philosophy outlined in The Rwanda National Strategy on Climate Change and Low Carbon Development.
A pocket neighborhood is an identifiable cluster of houses around shared outdoor commons and infrastructure.
Planning leverages urban and ecological services in the porch, yard, street, and open space. Neighborhoods are developed as sub-watersheds.
Like waterfronts and transit stops, parks leverage value in urban areas. The park is envisioned as the anchor for a larger urban landscape network.
The Habitat for Humanity neighborhood is designed as a sponge to work in accord with existing hydrological drainage, catchment, and recharge patterns.
