<p>York County is in the works to get its first mixed use development. Called Nelson&#8217;s Grant, the development would include 66 town houses, 46 condos, and nearly 14,000 square feet of commercial space. The new development is designed to create a sense of place for those that will live there. It incorporates many of the concepts that real urban planners support, such as sidewalks, alleyways to support rear-entry garages, community spaces, parallel parking, and a mixed use area. If this development is successful, it should be a model for future development all around Hampton Roads. It is more efficient on city services and therefore less expensive to serve than the segregated-use, &#8216;traditional&#8217; suburban sprawl.</p>
