The Road to El Dorado
Outubro 2016, inglês
This month, like conquistadors of centuries past, tens of thousands of us will ascend the Andes to Quito, Ecuador, in search of El Dorado. But, unlike our brutal and greedy predecessors, we are not pursuing metallic wealth beyond our wildest dreams. The golden city we seek promises a sustainable urban future. Our map—the New Urban […]

Open Reblock Land Readjustment App
By Rob Walker
Outubro 2016, inglês

According to UN-Habitat, 863 million people around the world lived in such settings as of […]

The 2016 Atlas of Urban Expansion Indicates Global De-Densification
By John Wihbey
Outubro 2016, inglês
Cities around the world seem to be stretching out physically and consuming land at a rate that exceeds population growth. As populations double, land use triples. When city growth comes up in public discourse, the conversation almost invariably focuses on population. We speak of “booming” cities that have grown from, say, 2 to 5 million […]
