Announcing the winners on Wednesday 2 December, Wayne Hemingway said: "The residents of these winning schemes must feel as if they've won the lottery. These schemes are shining examples of how you deliver great places to live, regardless of the economy, but the problem remains that they represent only a fraction of the housing built today. We urgently need to deliver this quality of housing as standard."

Housing minister John Healey: "What I can see here in the middle of urban Wolverhampton is an eco village that sets the standards for what we should be building in the future,"
