Arcosanti is a funky little community near Cordes Junction Arizona. It
is Soleri's vision (in progress for some 27 years now) of a community
that would embrace his concerns with today's urban environment. I have
been there and and found it to be quite interesting as a project but I
question its success as a 'community'. I would be interested in hearing
other views about it.
