⬅️ How to Build a Suburb (1995)
MarkusWandel 11 daysReload
I expect this is universal, but the city I live in has suburbs of different ages like growth rings of a tree. The earliest ones are in what is now considered the core; further out ones have aged to sometimes have interesting character of their own, all the way out to the ever-expanding exurban sprawl.

I simply live in a "growth ring" in which I feel comfortable. My house was built in 1970. There is no "urban / suburban" dividing line. It's a matter of perspective.

The failure of the postwar subdivisions was, paradoxically, a result of their great commercial success. The making of suburbs, which had been an honorable branch of town planning, became simply a way of marketing individual houses. By concentrating entirely on making houses affordable, the developers overlooked the chief lesson of the 1920s garden suburbs: subdivisions should consist not only of private dwellings but also of public spaces where citizens can feel that they are part of a larger community.

Today's formula for unlivable areas and car dependency was already old-hat in the 1930s: sleeping regulators who allow profit-seeking development with no regard for livability generate inter-generational pain points for society as a whole.

Seems to me that things are coming full circle, with people increasingly living in higher density apartments and the better apartment complexes providing gardens and social spaces by private-proxy to public planning.

A friend has a standalone house that’s 2.5 stories. He lives in the outskirts of Hiroshima Japan. From his house it is a five minute walk to two grocery stores. Fifteen minute walk to the train station. A bike ride to the local school and to the ocean. I am jealous. The lot his house sits on is tiny though; about a third of my house in the US. The streets are narrow with no sidewalks. His wife drives to perform errands. Everyone else walks bicycles or takes the train.
