A city grows like an organism. It is a structure of living and working together a mix of functions.
Cities are not problems. They are solutions.
Many cities end up putting off things because they want to understand everything. They don't understand that innovating is about starting. Taking care of a city is a process that you start, and then give the population space to respond.
