Should citizens design cities?

thisbigcity:

This amazing project in Mexico City saw citizens design and implement a 5km bicycle lane. Should citizens be encouraged to take urban design into their own hands?

民眾是否應自行設計城市?

墨西哥市這項傑出計畫中,民眾自行設計與繪製長五公里的單車道,民眾是否應自動自發接手都會設計工作?

  10. habitatsforhumans answered: I totally think citizens should be given the knowledge they need to design cities. Empower people - otherwise their dreams need interpreting.
