If I wanted to build a city from scratch, what book would help me learn what I should consider/optimize for?

This is one of my favorite, weird topics. We should talk. One rabbit hole worth going down is “Charter Cities”

We should def talk. I’ll text you.

I like the blog post "Let's Build A Traditional City (And Make A Profit)" by
@AndrewAPrice: http://www.andrewalexanderprice.com/blog20130330.php#.WxkNIJwpA3x … And of course the entire "Traditional City/Post-Heroic Materialism" series by@NathanNWE is a classic: http://newworldeconomics.com/category/traditional-city-post-heroic-materialism/ … -
tldr; Build narrow streets. Optimize places for people rather than cars. Hide parking underground or within city blocks. Cities that do this (cf. Florence, Kyoto) are crazy profitable and people fly around the world just to experience them.
