I was waiting for the post about your trip, and this does not disappoint—from shade umbrellas (in NY, I stand several feet back from the corners at red lights, so as to stay in the shade of buildings) to linear water features, stone crossings, fan coats (not embarrassing!), low-tech solutions to heat (in a Berlin hotel without air-conditioning, the owners cranked out awnings over each individual window in the heat of the day, which worked nicely), textured yellow lanes for blind walkers (which I recently saw in the Nantes train station in France), and . . . everything. Plan our city for the future, please!
Brilliant article
I forwarded to friends.
Loving this. I write about China Cities, so this is amazing I guess to see the Korean parallels
