The Mercado District in Tucson is one of the most significant New Urbanism projects in the United States, serving as a rare successful model for repairing the damage caused by mid-century urban renewal. Located at the city’s historic birthplace near the base of "A" Mountain, it functions as a 14-block laboratory for sustainable desert living. This new contemporary residence sits adjacent to the Mercado San Agustin, streetcar station, and the 130 + mile loop multi-use path system.
