The basic consideration of urban planning for the Stewardship Project is conservation, the basic goal to minimize human impact on the natural world. Cities are built up, not out. They are located away from preserved wilderness and set back from sensitive natural features. But the city must also be functional, as a residence and workplace for the human population.

Overall plan

The city is laid out in boroughs, clusters of buildings, connected by mass transit and divided by greenways. The mass transit system is subterranean, to allow the maximum light and air movement between the buildings within each borough. The greenways are meant to make open space accessible to the human population and to provide migratory corridors to wildlife.

Borough transportation plan

The transportation system is designed to allow a simple and convenient means of moving about the city without personal transportation. The streets between buildings will be open to pedestrians, human-powered transportation (bicycles and the like), and emergency vehicles.
