Urban Omnibus » Studio Report | The Speculation Studio: Governors Island, The Sixth Borough? The Future History of New York City | View of Manhattan Looking South | Muchan Park, Luc Wilson, Leigh D’ambra and Scott Hayner Late last year, Vishaan Chakrabarti, whose passionate rallying cries for infrastructure investment and urban density are familiar to regular readers of Urban Omnibus, unveiled a radical proposal (dubbed LoLo, as in Lower Lower Manhattan) to connect the Financial District to Governors Island through a land bridge made of landfill, replete with a new mixed-use, high-rise, green infrastructure community. The setting for his presentation was a conference called “Zoning the City”, convened by New York City’s Department of City Planning and Harvard’s Graduate School of Design, and Chakrabarti’s premise was how to zone for a modern Central Business District, for affordability, for livability, for energy and waste, and finally for resilience.

Город МКАД Джулио Марджери / Роэл ван Херпт Московскую кольцевую автодорогу (МКАД) построили в 1937 году, чтобы ускорить переброску войск и снаряжения на границы СССР. Новообразования в радиусе 500 метров от МКАД: офисы, развлекательные центры, кинотеатры, гостиницы, торговые центры, автомастерские, автосалоны и заправочные станции.
В советское время автомобильную орбиту Москвы не угнетали никакие коммерческие спутники — на всём кольце едва ли можно было насчитать десять заправочных станций. В городе МКАД есть жилые кварталы, коммерческие и офисные части, центры развлечений и ночной жизни. Система трансферных колец, соединяющих Москву, МКАД и область.

In the early euphoria following the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, Germany moved quickly to erase the scars of its Cold War division. But East Germany’s legacy remains visible in statistics. This image taken from the International Space Station shows the nighttime division between eastern and western Berlin, which still had differently colored streetlights in 2012. Source: ESA/NASA What does Germany’s reunification nearly a quarter of century later look like? Can you touch it? See it? Germans worked hard to make their decades of division disappear. We sought images, graphics and statistics to tell the story of German unity – or its continued division. What a contrast to the reunified Germany we’ve come to know.
Even a quarter of a century later, differences both small and large divide Germans hailing from the two halves of their country.
