The first location in an anticipated series of national/international competitions, Roanoke, Virginia (www.roanokegov.com) is located in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and considered by many to be the cultural center of the Appalachian Region of the United States. Roanoke is a city whose first golden age occurred during the development of the American railroad. Now Roanoke is home to one of the most unique ideas in community building and will benefit from design and construction processes that respect the rights of future generations.
