This week we will explore a theme that developed in the forums as a topic of discussion and thought: Urbanism
-We began the week by discussing sprawl, and its virus-like spreading throughout the U.S.A.
-Archinect member architechnophilia then brought to the floor this question: What is your New City Wishlist?
-Hopefully we will get more PARK less (ings)
-To find out what we would like to see in a city it is important to also discuss that which we do not think works in the urban context.
-And let's not forget the inhabitants, how diverse should a successful community be?
-As we go forth to design our cities it is important to know the tools available to us today.
-Lots of experimentation is needed because when it comes to urban design, everyone has the potential to be a critic.

Wow, it's getting hard to remember life before editor's picks! Remember when we had VCR's and called each other on the phone? It's like that!
Quilian, thanks for gathering all the city/development/urban design/planning chatter that's been happening on the boards this week in one convenient place! Funny how things go in waves.
