I was hoping for something closer to an arcology, society assimilating disperse buildings in to a more cohesive urban /plan/ that services their transportation needs and encourages high quality space within the middle. This is more like the budget version of that. Don't really solve the big issues, don't really improve the central areas. What would make this better is consolidation; actually moving the parking to the interlink point of the node, making it faster for a pedestrian to get from there to their home, or another point within the node. Improving the center so that it's more of an actual park, possibly with the shopping at level around it. Raising the standard of integration, interaction, and building codes for noise/fire suppression.
