      At the same time, no home or business lives in a vacuum. With large projects like this, developers are expected to contribute back to the city to build the infrastructure and neighborhoods around the project, like we see with this. It’s better city design to build a neighborhood directly connected to the plant than it is to expect everyone to commute for an hour to get to work. Many company towns had very good urban design, even if they were mini-dictatorships.
