Architectural Record

I recently rewatched this @notjustbikes video from a year ago, and it reminded me of a joke one of my brothers likes to tell:

"You're in Toronto, and you get in your car and drive for an hour. Now where are you?"

"Toronto."

#Toronto #urban_planning

from wikipedia
Among #Yemen's natural and cultural attractions are four World Heritage sites. The Old Walled City of Shibam in Wadi Hadhramaut, inscribed by UNESCO in 1982, two years after Yemen joined the #WorldHeritage Committee, is nicknamed "Manhattan of the Desert" because of its #skyscrapers. Surrounded by a fortified wall made of mud and straw, the 16th-century city is one of the oldest examples of #urban_planning based on the principle of vertical construction.

This should be read within the context of the current capitalist society. IMHO, in a just anarchist society all of the resources should be free and equally distributed, but we are not there yet.
