2. Read article answer questions. (https://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2011/03/28/the-incredible-shrinking-city/how-not-to-save-neighborhoods) all articles are in the link.
Q1: In the essay How Not to Save a City by Richard Florida, he reference the idea that cities can shrink to survive and states this may do more harm than good. He also questions, How do we guarantee that the notion of shrinking cities does not become cover for private developers looking to assemble massive parcels of centrally located and well-connected urban land on the cheap? What strategy does he suggest as the most successful efforts of renewing old urban neighborhoods?
Q2: The Columbus Transportation article describes a heterogeneous density. Could have this form of density been achieved if, the Modernist style of development would have been focused on a system for public transit (bus, train, plane, etc.) instead of private transit (the automobile)? Do you think this design strategy would fix the problem without having to redensify?
Q3: Based on the article Dis-Urbanism the Columbus project gives many visions about changing the American city. One of the main focuses is on transportation. Given the love for the car, and the freedom that it gives people to go where they want when they want, is the idea of removing the car and relying almost solely on transit feasible?
Q4: In the U.S. we had the space and resources to expand outward creating mass suburban sprawl. Where in countries like Europe or Asia, their cities grew in a much denser form. Is the U.S. being affected more by the need for ungrowth than these other countries, or are they or will they be, in a similar position as the U.S.?
