Join us for the fifth stop on the Fall 2025 Strong Towns Local-Motive Tour. Mike Keen, managing partner at Neighborhood Evolution, and Jordan Richardson, a small-scale developer, explain how to make incremental housing and neighborhood vitality the norm.
LOCATION: Virtual Workshop | DATE: October 16, 2025 | TIME: 12-1 p.m. CDT
Mike Keen, managing partner at Neighborhood Evolution, and Jordan Richardson, a small-scale developer, uncover how everyday residents, alongside local officials, can foster a culture where incremental housing development is legalized, financed and welcomed. Mike and Jordan will share real-world insights on removing barriers, encouraging “many hands” to shape our cities, and enabling the kind of small, steady growth that brings housing choices at a range of price points.
This session will help orient you to Strong Towns’ forthcoming housing toolkit, which is all about creating the conditions for incremental developers to thrive in your city. It’s also a unique opportunity to connect with recurring guests at our annual National Gathering and long-time partners of Strong Towns: Neighborhood Evolution. Strong Towns members have the chance to attend an exclusive debrief afterward to continue the conversation with Mike and Jordan.
This workshop is worth 1 AICP continuing education credit.
