I’d like to see city design which is cost optimized around travel time. Let’s say that you are building a city such that you want everyone to be able to get to the center 10% within 30min during rush hour. What is the cheapest solution (for housing as well as transportation) For a city of 1M, 5M, 10M, 50M?
- xtagon 7y agoSomething tells me that it would help to make the layout 3D. For example, if housing units are arranged in a pyramid-like layout with transport areas throughout, then there are more points closer to the center than if you have a flat city.
- jmpman 7y agoBut the more dense the city, the more expensive the housing costs.
- notduncansmith 7y agoYou could probably have a network of multistory buildings linked by walkways and such.
