Abstract
American suburbs are often criticized by journalists and some urbanists as being segregated, disconnected environments- those which lack variety and diversity in both their physical and socio-economic landscape. Existing nodes within master-planned communities can be diversified by interventionally concentrating and overlapping programs. In this way, a 'commonground'-the space between private realms can be developed to connect, not separate, private and public
