This sounds like a interesting project. I've often thought that cities and towns have struggled to keep pace with lifestyle changes over the years but that mainly because they are inherently hard things to change. So designing a city that will work well both for the present and hundreds of years into the future is a problem that needs solving.
One of the key things you want to achieve is to keep house prices low but this seems like something which will be very hard to achieve. For example if the first of these "new cities" does meet all of the objectives (e.g creating a happy place for people to achieve their potential) won't that raise house prices as people will want to move there?
