It looks like Le Corbusier finally found an entire city willing to incorporate his design values. What a fiasco.

- brudgers 14y agoTry to reach Seaside without a car.
- RyanMcGreal 14y agoSo our only urban design choices are the Tower in a Park or the New Urbanist suburb?
- brudgers 14y agoBrasilia is a modernist city forged out of wilderness. It attempts to deal with the messy problems of poverty. BTW, Seaside isn't a suburb of anything.
- RyanMcGreal 14y agoI'm still trying to understand what you're arguing.
- zmmz 14y agoActually, that would be Chandigarh[1], a city that was designed by Corbu himself. There is a lot to be said about the city, but it is probably not what people would expect from him (I've heard from people who have been that it is actually quite humanistic). This is quite common with Corbu, since he is the favourite scapegoat in architecture. [1]:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandigarh http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandigarh
