MFW I realized the yellow areas weren’t the buildings 😐
So much space left for building parking lots!
Imagine what we could do if we got rid of the stores and houses
I measured the area of the yellow area in Inkscape. It’s 30% of the image. The streets are roughly another 20% (and many of those are just circling the parking lots).
So we could pack almost twice as much stuff into this image, and therefore reduce average travel times by … 30%? Depends on how densification would happen.
Curious how you did that in inkscape. Was it time consuming? I know about the trace path function which could be used for the yellow, but how did you do the streets?
I just put rectangles on like 6 blocks and got about 26% street area, then figured many places had bigger blocks or narrower streets. The area is measured by extensions -> measure path.
That’s not urban in the slightest. This is a rural area, just like american suburbs are rural housing developments. Infrastructure is what makes urbanism. A place without infrastructure is rural.
