- bookofsand 5y agoI don't speak Dutch, so I could not retrieve relevant statistical data. From my memories, the quaint ~100k Netherlands city was mostly townhouse rows and SFHs. I don't recall many 6+ floor megabuildings. Feel free to drop some StreetView pins around and see for yourself: https://www.google.com/maps/place/''s-Hertogenbosch,+Netherlands https://www.google.com/maps/place/''s-Hertogenbosch,+Netherl...' The #1 US problem is the centralization of jobs in the downtown. If we want to get to reduce car usage, we need to zone to geographically spread the jobs around.
