The idea that cities should be designed around 15 minute hubs, where you should be able to walk to everything you need (job, grocery, school, hospital, restaurants, etc) within 15 minutes. From Paris's new plans to Barcelona's superblocks, it looks like cities across Europe at least are beginning to catch on to how appealing this way of living is. Thoughts on how to apply this to cities outside of Europe?

EDIT: The discussion going on here is fantastic and I love you all :heart-sickle:

    I wonder if there any studies on the efficacy of microdistricts. Like even just polls of people living and working in them versus those in conventional districts - it's nice to read about them and understand the logic but I'd like to get the general perspective of people having to live there 24/7.
