Imagining our future might require a look into our past
The Image that Will Never Appear - Associated Content from Yahoo! - associatedcontent.com There was a time when buildings had no more than four levels and where streets were not filled with cars. And when a city did not have to be millions sprawled about for the convenience of a car culture if not for human beings. This was not necessarily any better than our time except that it made sense for the creation of communities. And creating community is a necessity in any society that cherishes depth, vibrancy - a sense of life. In the future we will need to look back and recover elements of the past we have lost and integrate them with technological capacity to build new four level communities where people can walk to what they need to get to. Since that is now possible, it is what will be.
