The city/county is working very hard right now to stop sprawl. That is what Verdae, ICAR, Millennium Campus, South Financial, and other developments are trying to do too. They are all mixed-use or campus like settings built to try and stop sprawl. Also, the county just recently passed a measure to try and quit rid of most coldasac's (spelling) in new subdivisions and the city along with developers are building a ton of mixed-use developments, not only downtown, but in a lot of other places too.

-The next new development is a mixed-use $137 million dollar project downtown that will include 9 buildings set in three phases. One of the buildings will be a Hampton Inn and Suites Hotel. The hotel is already complete and open along with three other buildings, including one office building with restaurants and two condo buildings. Right now the fifth building and the first of phase 2 named the Terrace at Riverplace, which will have condos is under construction. Riverplace will also include a huge interactive fountain in the middle between the Hampton Inn and Terrace at Riverplace that will cascade 29 feet toward the Reedy River and play music. It is set to open September 1 of this year. Here are some pics and info:
