Residents of Alexandra have been characterized by their love for their city and the struggle for the right remain in the city. Although RDP is focusing on housing they are neglecting their failing infrastructure. The combination of subsidized housing and micro-grid infrastructure will continue to build the community in Alexandra. Therefore a more effective government housing strategy, focusing on user participation, flexibility, and microgrids, may receive greater user satisfaction, control infrastructure challenges, as well as urban density. The design proposal is to create a more effective and community based public housing strategy which first provides basic infrastructure (water, sewerage, electric) through a system of micro-grids, while maintaining density in Alexandra.
