Despite being from an exurb I realize that it was very naturally pretty and won't screech endlessly about how it needs to be obliterated (most planners learn theories on integrating nature with the urban form, ofc the bugmen won't listen to this part and will be too busy jacking off to the authenticity of favelas and commieblocks)
The problem with urbanists is that they spend so much time in the city they can't imagine why anyone else wouldn't. I just think about this post

(Of the actual planners I've met, the ones that think like this or take the NJB crowd seriously thankfully only want to work in gentrified shitholes like NYC and think anything other than that is second class. They're much more of a purely online group than they may seem)
