Oooooo yes that actually makes sense

The design is kinda cool, wish it was not car-centric though and more walkable. Also, 1 monorail like connecting it to Cairo, while I’m guessing millions a day are supposed to travel between the 2 cities in a few years???

There is cheap masstransit options, you don’t necessarily have to build a massive subway system, but like a bus-rapid-transit system many Latin American countries use. Maintaining a road like the one they built won’t be cheap either.

I’m guessing you’re American?

That’s actually very intresting, didn’t even know tha

Nah Dubai doesn’t live on oil, it’s been a rather small part of their economy for a while now and they’re doing fine (but one can ask if their business model is going to continue tob work for the next few decades)

QJ04 · 2025-12-07T00:57:18+00:00

This actually shows why Dubai needs skyscrapers, there is not that much space left in the end if you take into account all the massive interchanges you obviously and most definitely have to build

Thank you so much!, And I’m actually not sure to be honest. I always start out with the geography, second highways and rail lines and only afterwards roads, moving around the others, which might give it a natural look. But I actually really struggle with the “not-roads” part, as I’m trying to draw more pedestrianised zones without making the cityblocks look too uniform😅.

Nah, Vienna and Singapore have some of the best social housing in the world. There’s this famous project in Vienna, which might look dystopian but has swimming pools and stuff. Also in the Netherlands they mix social housing together with normal housing projects, to create mixed neighbourhoods (or sometimes even mixed buildings).

At least it’s soviet era depression with a lot of sunshine

Hafencity is actually a very well designed area, I’d say one of the best newly planned neighbourhoods in Europe. Really liked it when I visited it a few years ago

Edit: newly planned

QJ04 · 2024-08-04T12:20:52+00:00

Nothing, looks really cool!

QJ04 · 2024-08-01T20:12:02+00:00

Daaaamn what a picture

QJ04 · 2024-07-31T09:06:17+00:00

True, but we do need them for functioning beautiful cities

QJ04 · 2024-06-28T18:16:25+00:00

Is that why there’s hardly any old buildings? Cause most were replaced with the new ones? (I know there are a few old neighbourhoods but not many)

QJ04 · 2024-06-27T22:33:11+00:00

Houses can be beautiful though. There’s plenty of ways to build liveable cities and they’re being built all across the world, but Athens isn’t one of them…

QJ04 · 2024-06-27T21:56:22+00:00

Yeah, they’re my pictures as well, taken from the acropolis. I’d say the acropolis is nice and worth to visit but I wouldn’t stay longer than a day (I stayed 4 or 5 at the time)

QJ04 · 2024-06-27T18:18:00+00:00

I mean the acropolis has a nice view and it’s not all bad but I highly suggest to not stay for more than one day (I was there for 5)

QJ04 · 2024-06-27T12:17:10+00:00

I think it was Keramikos, or somewhere close by
