Suburbs a city lover could love

Please share with us the suburbs in your metropolitan area that really aren't suburbs at all...but more accurately cities within the suburbs. I'm talking about places that are delightfully urban in character without sprawl, totally walkable, served by excellent public transportation (internally and into the city as well), diverse, sophisticated, vibrant restaurant and retail scene, housing styles that include those that you would find in cities (town and row houses, condos and apartments, mid rises and hopefully a high rise or two), notable institutions (i.e. colleges and universities).

I'm thinking of those wonderful places that are a terrific mix of the best of city and suburb, places that will serve as models for further out suburbs (hopefully) in the future. Pictures to go along with the commentary would be greatly appreciated.>
