Re: Should cities be inside-out to reduce pollution?

I like the city model where all the entertainment, restaurants, nightclubs, and shopping district is in the center of the city, intermingled with parks. Sort of a pedestrian mall with few autos. The housing comes next, with more practical stores, like groceries stores, gas stations, etc, close-by. It is also set up to have various forms of public transportation from the residential to the hub. This allows the children and others, who can't drive, to get to the hub. At the outer layer is the industrial and manufacturing district. This is where the auto is useful, being the primary means of transport from the residential. This is connected with a good road system.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.
