Urban Sprawl in the United States: Incredible Aerials
To be honest, when seeing it like this it creeps the shit out of me. It may have it’s benefits but it looks like those crop circles supposedly made by alien species.
This is the FAMIMA that they show in the movie. It’s fun to see your city in a movie.
So Inception was the best movie I have seen in a long time. Seriously, harnessing the power of your dreams? That’s awesome. And the DiCaprio + Watanabe combo? Nice. Now an urban planning point of view… (a naïve one from a young student, duh)… probably don’t read it if you haven’t seen the movie (you’re crazy if you haven’t seen it, btw).
25% of the bridges in America are defined as deficient or obsolete. Just for the user information, that’s over 150,000 American bridges. It is a matter of time before one of these bridges just down, and collapses.
An argument for repairing the bridges before they’re broken includes an economic stimulation is providing job opportunities for the unemployed.
The government, however, has taken little to no interest in the issue.
One argument could possibly be that the Obama administration would like to focus on improving the infrastructure of alternative forms of transportation. That’s just an opinion, though.
