CHANGING CONDITIONS <br />As we near the end of the 20th Century, an increasing number of families <br />everywhere are dissatisfied with the current living conditions they find in <br />urban areas. Street crime, traffic congestion and the decay in the urban <br />infrastructure cause them to look elsewhere for an environment more <br />suited to the needs of families of all sizes and ages. More and more, <br />people are turning back with a sense of of nostalgia to the values <br />suggested by images of the 19th Century village, and to the advantages of <br />living in a small town environment. <br />University Station is planned to satisfy this desire for a simpler life in a <br />smaller place: a place where traffic is quiet, where families can walk the <br />streets or sit in the park, where children can play, where most o the <br />necessities can be found within a short walk. In short, University Station <br />is planned for people, not for automobiles, and for the enhancement of the <br />quality of family life and the convenience and gratification of a broad and <br />diverse mix of families and individual residents. <br />
