Cities that are well designed
Ranked list by Jonas Weber · 19 items · 0 likes
I look at transit, public space and how a city treats a pedestrian. Old centres and new districts both count.
- Tokyo Place
Trains run on time, and signs are readable without Japanese.
- Copenhagen Place
Bike lanes treated as real infrastructure.
- Paris Place
Haussmann blocks, and a street grid that still works.
- Kyoto Place
- Lisbon Place
Trams and steep streets, and somehow it all fits.
- Barcelona Place
The Eixample grid with chamfered corners is genius.
- Istanbul Place
- Rome Place
- New York City Place
- London Place
- Cape Town Place
- Amsterdam Place
- Singapore Place
A planned city that actually feels green.
- Berlin Place
Cheap, open, and still being rebuilt.
- Hong Kong Place
- Vancouver Place
- San Francisco Place
- Seoul Place
Subway and street food in the same building.
- Montreal Place
