[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sighhhhhhh America so desperately thinks they can plan urban design like Japan, but it will be a disaster because America never plans anything right. For starters, the US doesn't have the infrastructure to be designed like Japan. Our public transport sucks ass. Everyone drives everywhere. All we are going to get are a bunch of neighborhoods that were designed for SFHs now flooded with townhouses, multiplexes and apartments. You are ging to get a million cars parking on the streets, trash problems, and water problems. People are still going to drive everywhere. [/quote] So the solution is to create more sprawl and build even further out from central locations??? Urban sprawl = more traffic and less useful public transportation systems 8 homes per acre of land (or 5445 SF of land for each home) on the public sewer line seems very reasonable.[/quote] The areas in the Kentlands with detached homes have more than 8 per acre.[/quote]
