[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Building taller to provide more ground level green space is considered bad by the urbanists crowd. They derisively call it “tower in the park”. [/quote] I mean, yeah, we can all picture disconnected buildings surrounded by weird green space nobody uses. That doesn't mean that setbacks are the key to urban success, obviously. I think of cities like SF and Philly that combine no-setbacks with lots of attractive public space. [/quote] It’s true; these are some winning cities. No ATVs shootings or homeless. Ditto London and knife crime on the “estates”[/quote]
