Cap tip Alice
My proposal for any area a mile square. Create a four level cyber-community with residences for up to 10,000 who live there by choice in modular spaces the subscribe to. These spaces are enclosed in a matrix that conducts all energy, water and waste and most ecological things are done on site. These are car free with no more than a mile from one side to the other. These to be built on pattern language principles and to contain all things needed for a small city including businesses, shops (kiosks where you order things), education (kiosks where you learn by choice) and all manner of health and recreation facilities and spaces. I will publish jpegs and credit any designs of same here and on my Beyond Pattern Language blog.
