This condo development reminded me of Parker Flats, with its floor-to-ceiling glass.
The Aspen, a $20 million proposed urban mixed-use development in Boise, Idaho has a number of significant innovative, progressive features, including:

- The building site is only 32 feet deep. Shows how much you can build in the tightest spaces.
- Home buyers have the ability to purchase 600 s.f. modules ($180,000) to build 600 to 2400 s.f. (or more) lofts, in the building locations they choose - a very beta community-ish approach. Not surprisingly, there's already a long list of potential buyers even though the project isn't approved yet.
- 10' 6" ceilings.
- 3000 s.f. of ground-floor retail and 5000 s.f. of office space accompany the residences.
