Watch this video ad-free on Nebula:
For centuries, cities followed a common pattern of development, that can be seen in the design of cities all around the world. This pattern was not accidental or even inevitable, but came about over years of evolution.

This video introduces the concept of Traditional vs. Suburban development patterns, and shows some of the financials behind why suburban development simply can’t compete.
