The previous links make me sad. We have lost all aesthetics and individuallity and now you see it all over the world. Gaps on every corner in Paris and London. McDonalds everywhere. Popeyes Chicken covering South Korea.....

Worse still, does every new shopping center and subdivision have to be built in faux craftsman? I bet Frank Lloyd Wright is turning in his grave.

So what can we do about it? Think about it and then act. Be different today.

Andrew: I've always thought of this stuff but never really on this level. Planning was supposed to include these concerns. I don't think it ever did. Zoning is all we see... strip malls here, town hall here... cookie-cutter houses here. It's a tragedy!

Richard - I think that in the end the developers look for the cheapest way out and city councils always cave.
