This is so interesting. Shame there isn't more information regarding urban planning on YouTube.

Just started playing Cities Skylines.. All the tutorials are like 50 minutes long and often explain things without actually showing where/how to find things. Came to this, the OG City Designer CityCad and the first minute alone has been a huge help in just planning small areas of a budding city. Thanks for the video Jon!

This neighborhood already looks breathtaking. It's interesting how simple buildings, with similar heights, carved out windows (instead of curtain walls), good color combinations, and well defined ground floors, etc., in combination with street trees, can create beautiful cities. If you look at the most beautiful cities on the planet, such as Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, etc., they all have followed these rules. We don't need 'starchitects' to make beautiful cities, what we need is good urban planning and design.

Ive been there in Ladywood. Lots of waterfront properties being built now with London money for mainly middle class people in Birmingham. It was formerly an industrial manufacturing site before they closed down by 1990's.

Excellent demonstration of the muddled thinking behind much of our urban design. Not evil, just not wise imo.

1:35 talks about red and blue routes and then it draws red, orange, blue and yellow routes, what are the orange and yellow routes for? 🤷🏼‍♂️

This is very helpful, what software is this ?

[AymanSafi]

nice software for conceptual planning! I noticed you were using a student-version, I wonder if its free, and how much could it be limited?

[braverbird]

Which websites can I use to create neighborhood planning

[hermansbastian]

How do we determine the dimensions of the width of the road that we will use in each of the grids? Sorry, I'm still just learning Urban Planning in semester 5, architectural engineering
