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.

 

Landscaping lures and refreshes peoples senses.
