Earlier I profiled the federal Environmental Protection Agency's 2011 national award winners for smart growth achievement (here's the version of my story on The Atlantic Cities). Here are short, very well-produced videos from EPA on each of them:

Old North St. Louis (overall excellence)

Plan El Paso (programs, policies, and regulations)

Silver Gardens Apartments, Albuquerque (smart growth and green building)

Maroney Commons, Howard, SD (rural smart growth)

Uptown Normal (IL) Roundabout (civic places)

Congratulations to the outstanding exemplars of sustainability and to EPA's Office of Sustainable Communities for a great job again this year with the awards program.
