🚶♂️ The Power of Walkable Cities 🚶♀️ Inspired by the brilliant work of urban planner Jeff Speck, I’ve been reflecting on the incredible benefits of walkable cities. Speck’s vision revolves around the concept of designing cities that prioritize pedestrians, making urban spaces not only more accessible but also healthier, greener, and more community-oriented. Walkable cities offer so much more than just a place to stroll. They reduce carbon footprints, promote local businesses, and bring people together in ways that car-centric cities just can’t match. Jeff Speck emphasizes that walkability should be more than an afterthought; it should be a key component in urban planning. After all, cities designed for people—not just cars—tend to be more vibrant, safe, and economically resilient. As we consider the future of our urban spaces, it’s crucial to ask: how can we build cities that make walking easy and enjoyable for everyone? How can we transform our neighborhoods to be healthier, more connected, and sustainable? If you’re interested in the potential of walkable cities, I highly recommend checking out Jeff Speck's work and his book Walkable City. It’s a must-read for anyone passionate about urban design and sustainability! 🌆 #UrbanPlanning #WalkableCities #JeffSpeck #SustainableCities

The arrogance of space: are we designing our cities for cars or people? We need to rethink sustainable mobility, pedestrian, and justice. The unbalanced distribution of space between cars and people in European cities is striking. This raises questions about the efficient use of our limited urban space and the prioritization of private property over public access. Watch the video by Mikael Colville-Andersen where he explains the concept showing good and bad examples. https://lnkd.in/da67NFww #ArroganceofSpace #Sneckdown #UrbanPlanning #SustainableMobility #Equity #CityDesign #PublicAccess #Walkability #SustainableCities #Sustainableliving
