$1 billion 'city within a city' development approved by Coachella, Calif., city council

The Coachella City Council approved a proposal to build La Entrada, a 2,200-acre city within a city. It would include 7,800 homes; a retail center with stores, office space, and businesses; nearly 350 acres of open space for playgrounds, parks and hiking trails; and potentially a new soccer-centric sports venue.
