New Urban Future - Fused Grid Network
Congested, noisy and smelly downtowns have found a new urbane way to treat their citizens and visitors - the fused grid network (see Wiki and photostream).
It combines normal all mobility mode streets with pedestrian-only streets that recapture the feeling and the ownership of the public realm. They offer tranquility, a relaxed canter and social space for casual encounters.
At the same time they amplify the opportunity for windowshoping and shopping undisturbed by the unpleasant intrusions of traffic.
