Building to a property line instead of having deep setbacks = higher surface area Many narrow streets instead of a few wider ones = higher surface area Many small buildings instead of a few large ones = higher surface area
the "surface area" that's really relevant in a city is street-facing walls of buildings--like many biological structures this is a semi-permeable membrane, regulating what goes in and out to make sure the requisite "nutrients" (goods, money, etc) get where they need to bepic.twitter.com/4vFymdvP87
