A small neighborhood in Tempe, Phoenix, Arizona, touted as a being a car-free and rental-only community has opened, referred to as a “5-minute city,” and it has attracted some recent attention.
The innovative rental community called Culdesac Tempe was first conceptually announced in the fall of 2020, putting up an initial $170 billion to fund its creation, with the goal of becoming the first car-free neighborhood in the United States, as detailed by The New York Times.
According to the developer’s website, Culdesac Tempe is self-described as a 5-minute city. The firm says, “You’re just 5 mins away from all your essentials at the corner market, a quick tune-up at Archer’s Bikes, and a cozy dinner at Cocina Chiwas.”
Culdesac Tempe is designed for walkability. We’ve partnered with the world’s leading mobility companies to bring you the most affordable and convenient ways to get around town. As a resident, you’ll receive 15% off all Lyft rides, free rides on the metro, and Bird scooters just a minute away.
Culdesac Tempe means life at your front door. Removing parking creates ample open space for a large dog park and pool. Our “Extend Your Home On Demand” program allows you to expand and contract your home as you need. Simply book a Guest Suite through the Culdesac app and we’ll handle the rest.
