Ever wonder why people daydream of European towns? Or why your city's core isn't bustling with energy like New York? The answers probably have something to do with how they were built.
Our cities should work for us, not the other way around. A boom in post-war suburban development patterns has left us with inefficient and overbuilt sprawl. We can, however, bring back healthy cities - the kind of walkable, interesting, and comfortable places that make you want to hang around (as opposed to just driving on to the next desolate town).
Healthy cities create healthy (and wealthy!) people. Stick around to see if your city is really built for you.
