@Neil,

I was referring to how developments like watergate and Kentlands are usually compared by their differences, something like Kentlands being seen as an answer to mistakes found in a place like Watergate. That said, its not a "new" idea that people like to be able to walk to places considering that walking was pretty much our only means of transportation for a long time. Once you realize this (and its weird how this has to be retaught) then it comes down to the effinciency of design which something like Kentlands (which just sticks to basics) can eventually succeed compared to the relative decline of a super block where the concept didn't really re-shape how we view our urban areas for the better.
