The Future of the City - Is It Sustainable?
by Christine Sine
We all know the verse from Jeremiah "Without a vision the people perish." I just came across this fascinating vision of what our cities could look like in the future - if we had the vision to believe that it was possible. Sustainability will always seem unattainable unless we have a vision of what it could look like.
This is only one of the cool images on the Green Building Elements website that come from an exhibit that will be shown in New York later this year. Ten of the world’s leading architects show how the integration of urban planning and transport can enable cities to thrive through population growth in a new exhibition at the Center for Architecture. “Our Cities Ourselves is a partnership between ITDP and some of the world’s most innovative architects, to help us imagine our cities freed from the devastating effects of accommodating rapid motorization,” says Walter Hook, Executive Director of the Institute for Transportation and Development Policy (ITDP).You can read the rest of the article and view the other architectural drawings here. There are some very creative ideas here that really help us to envision a different type of city and a different type of world that is far more sustainable than our current practices.
