European cities are trying to do this, yet to be seen if it works.

Rockcliffe airbase was supposed to be this, but I'm not convinced yet.
Rockcliffe is fairly dense but fairly centrally located. Who wants to live in a townhouse or apartment in such a far flung location? Europeans do this but there is a train connection and frankly often they become pretty rough ghettos for immigrants.
