Other comments have pointed out lack of cars (the whole point) or AC being an issue when you want to carry your groceries 300m home in 40+ degree C temperatures. And this is true. But for me it was the "soundscape" comments. - caption quote: "imagine the fresh air, the invigorating call of roosters in the morning" Rooster calls are not so much invigorating as annoying. - "The loudest noise you will hear on a typical day will be children playing or a conversation between neighbors in the street. And so it should be." Did stereos, consoles, movies just cease to exist too? Are we going to be crammed in next to our neighbours hearing everything they do through their "airflow enhanced" houses? - "Keep the lots small, and all buildings aligned right to the edge of the lot facing the street, leaving backyards and courtyards, common or private, and walled gardens on unused space" Apparently so. This town is for someone else, not me.
