I'm in Toronto Canada and it's a very car dependent landscape unfortunately and honestly I'm a little jealous seeing European places and how nice they are with their rich history. Meanwhile here in Ontario we have quadruple-carriageways and stroads lined with strip malls and big-box stores with their expansive parking lots. Unless you're with friends, going outside can be pretty bleak to the eye.

My ideal town would be as such

  1. a car-free and dense downtown area with rowhouses and condo units above cafes and shops

  2. lots of trees and greenery

  3. traditional architectural design

What would you think for yours?

Your vision, as long as there is a laneway behind those condo/cafes and having interior bicycle parking on the backside of those buildings.
