Prospect New Town - designed by New Urbanist gurus Duany Plater-Zyberk (www.dpz.com/) - takes some serious gambles with color and architecture, and introduces New Urbanism to an uber- suburban corner of the U.S. Love or hate it, you have to admire their cojones.

This place really caught my eye and I hope to get the chance to visit the place sometime. I did a litte re-touching but didn't need to much as the photographer did an awesome job with their photography.
On 3 October 1918, the 1st King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry captured Prospect Hill, after Le Catelet and Gouy had been taken by the 50th (Northumbrian) Division, the 6th Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and the 4th King's Royal Rifle Corps. The cemetery was made by the 50th Division and the 18th Field Ambulance immediately after. Plot I formed the original cemetery but this was increased after the Armistice when graves were brought in, mainly from the battlefields north of Gouy, and almost exclusively of men who died in October 1918.
The cemetery contains 538 Commonwealth burials and commemorations of the First World War. 115 of the burials are unidentified and a special memorial commemorates one casualty believed to be buried among them. A group of graves in Plot IV, Row F, are identified as a whole but not individually. The cemetery also contains the grave of one Commonwealth airman of the Second World War.
The cemetery was designed by Sir Herbert Baker

White settlers first arrived here in the 1820s. It was on the way to the west coast and prospered. By 1844 the town had two breweries, seven inns, a quarry, flour mill and a convict station. This dry area of Tasmania is excellent for sheep and cattle production. The town is known for its many 1840s Georgian style sandstone buildings- all built by convicts before transportation ceased in 1853. Since the 1960s some land has been irrigated from the Derwent River dams. The district also grows opium poppies for medicinal purposes. We hope to have time to visit Prospect Villa, a fine sandstone Georgian house with two Grecian style side additions! Visitors come to Prospect Villa to see the beautiful gardens known for roses, the white garden, the secret garden, the urn garden, the Italian garden and the round garden.
