Community planners should really think about how to "modularize" / "componentize" neighborhoods. What's valuable to the next generation may end up being despised by future generations. Also human civilization is only at the infancy of what technology will be capable of.
Unfortunately capitalism as a concept causes buyers and sellers to only concern themselves with the immediate future. "Can I sell this to someone tomorrow?"
A lot of industries can afford this short-sightedness, but there is only so much physical space (and orders of magnitude less that is livable) on the planet.
