Introduction: One best HOPE for humanity meeting SDG targets is to give building site owners MORE OPTIONS. Today's cities typically TRAP URBAN DWELLERS in the local housing type with NO ENTREPRENEURIAL OPPORTUNITY! This paper proposes a NEW CITY INFRASTRUCTURE with neighborhood modules of completely flexible, large two-story totally private development sites suitable for any typical urban business or 1 to 4 homes. Entrepreneurial urban dwellers may pursue any enterprise, an amazing new economic resource for individuals and cities. These vacant building sites will be built in a permanent (1000+year) multi-story infrastructure. Flexibility of space and utility raceways allow continual updating for continually changing objectives and new technology to meet SDG's. Locals complete their city and transit link. It will function as a permanent, autonomous, Self-sustaining, compact, efficient, adaptable dwelling and farming system. Methods: Designing, building, market testing and worldwide research over 40 years proved the need for this proposal. Inspiration: Ancient stone structures occupied for hundreds of years. Flexibility and privacy make a permanent infrastructure practical. "Continual-use"reduces future housing costs 70%. This infrastructure stimulates remarkable new ownership and financial arrangements for all income levels. Results: Long term success of SDG targets ultimately depends on individuals. Options give hope and more control over their property and future. Flexibility encourages incentives to improve and increase ownership equity. This design's hillside village qualities of dwellings overlooking daily life on their neighborhood plaza will generate common bonds overlapping many generations. Total privacy, flexibility, backyard gardens and incentives encourage entrepreneurs, combining talents, sweat equity, Self-employment, pride and hope! Conclusion: In some locations the need is already desperate. The only logical conclusion: Immediately build, test and refine this proposal. Many modules together become a city, living areas above floods, capable of reducing CO2 and totally eliminating fire or climate risk. Implementing this new urban flexibility will revolutionize future human habitats and the life of every person. Test it, discover new SDG guidelines.
