Remember that we have a huge housing problem in our major cities, prices sky-high w very little development...allowing development with narrower roads and smaller setbacks could put tons of new units on the market
Remember, ppl don't usually stay forever in the first house they buy! How many more would be able to start down the road of homeownership if we built like this? Crazy to make people wait for their own roof over their head until they can pay for the yard at the same time...
i feel like no matter which jp urban photograph you’ve posted, there is always at least one potted plant on street level what is this phenomenon??
I don't know if it has a name but I really gotta say I like the whole "vines+potted plants" option for city greenery over "can we make space for some grass?" option
looks much more homely tbh
not like parks don’t exist either
Funny how (to me) Tokyo looks way worse from above, but way better from street-level. Obvious which one you should prioritize, but I could see how city planners would get fooled, looking down at a map.
Unfortunately not just planners think that way...
