    @@general2109 the only water free toilets i know of are Litterboxes for cats (which a don't know how you make that human compatible and scale up) and outhouses which are basically just a hole in the ground with a building on top, which I don't see that having anywhere near the hygiene or capacity for a city to use. (They are near camps in the woods where anything fancier isn't needed/economical) Besides modern waste treatment plants are required to make the output water safe for consumption before returning the water to the river the city draws from. The main flaw with this process is that these plants usually aren't designed to get rid of pharmaceuticals in the water. Water is infinitely recyclable, and as we get greener energy it makes desalination a better solution to turn seawater into fresh water for the cost of electricity. If your burning coal you will be making future water crisis worse by doing this.

    The problems with a grid layout are that the citizens often get bored walking outside and they also often feel small and insignificant. You would have to make the streets more "alive" with non-repetitive patterns with at least a change of street pattern every 100 meters. This is especially important when you will have a population that's depending on traveling by foot. People need to feel welcome and safe on the streets, not bored and vulnerable. Loved your video btw! :)

    agreed. Grids are useful but they get boring. If it's pedestrian-only on ground level then the city paths should be laid out somewhat like an amusement park, where the design of the paths 'funnel' people into areas of interest and kind of guide you around in a way that encourages exploration and discovery.

    You could solve some of that with creative street design, variation of building types/sizes. If every first floor is intended for interaction (e.g. store front), there would be inherent asymmetry. Roads could still be grids, but with curves in the road, different size sidewalks, different movement styles (sidewalks + "street"; marked lanes of travel for walking/biking, etc.)

    Each and every transport mode has its uses, its advantages and weaknesses, and each is adapted to specific demographics. I think we should strive for a balanced repartion : don't just ban cars and promote rail only, for instance. Idealy, every mode is present for those whose needs requires it, and optimized to function corrrectly with other modes.

    I agree with Shanti. The apartments (flats) here are really expensive, costing you from 100k-800k to stay in a flat for 99 years, depending on how many rooms you want. A 4 room can range anywhere from 380k-450k, and a 5 room can range from 480k-550k, and so on. Mainly it's because of our country's density, we have 6.9 million people in a 31 by 29 mile wide country. I have to admit though, we do have good public transportation network.

    Actually, in Singapore, the apartment you talked about, commonly known as HDB, doesn't come on its own. the government implements a sort of control mechanism to prevent one race from occupying the whole block, floor. On average it's about 45% for Chinese and the rest a mixed ratio of Indian, Malay and Eurasian. however, recent years living in a apartment block almost results in the cold treatment of the neighbour, and not the said "kampong" (Malay for village) spirit of the closeness and friendliness

    Pedestrians can be required to partake in pedestrian training where they are taught to make way for emergency services. They just rush to the sides or enter the next building and the emergency service can pass through. Streets can be equipped with stationary sirens and lights that instruct people to make way, giving people a good bit of time to react before the emergency truck passes. I wonder though, they need the street level to be storefronts and stuff, but how do you supply stores with product? OK let's say it's delivered on standard palettes on a subway, but what about bulky construction materials and construction machinery which don't fit on a palette? How do you move apart commercial traffic like this and emergency traffic?

    Without streets how are you going to collect the garbage? How are you going to resupply stores? What if someone wants to move? With a uniform grid, what about the stronger wind inside the city? Solar panles also don't make much sense on top of tall buildings, because they can only supply electricity for a fraction of the residents. Wind turbines inside a city can also be dangerous, with the fast moving parts that can break down.

    recycling will have to take a bigger part of life to reduce carbon footprint. look at Japan, Korea for their trash sorting. For the rest that couldn't be recycled goes to a Incineration plant which also produce electricity then send to a landfill(Singapore's Palau Semakau). Trash collection to be centralised to minimised pollution of living area.

    I'm kind of on the same page as you when it comes to there being major issues if we just got ride of road for motorized vehicles all together. I do however believe that ideally we should definitely limit the number of those vehicles that are allowed on the road by having less roads dedicated to street vehicles and also by allowing for areas to be zoned with more mix use areas. That is zones that are a mix of commercial and residential. Solar panels on the top of buildings are fine if you ask me but so long as its sufficiently inexpensive, we just assume its there to help partially power the energy needs of that building and if its producing a surplus, able to give back to other nearby buildings if its needed and if the area sees a sufficient amount of sunlight throughout the year to justify the costs. I'll agree with you on the wind turbines on top of buildings 100% though not just for the risk of having those moving parts up there but its also just much better to specifically build the turbines in a region that will regularly and consistently see those high winds that will be able to fulfill energy demands at a net positive to the energy grid vs the cost of building them over a reasonable time frame.

    Mmm, this is very nice. While being very naive. Just few questions: Where did the lake go to in the grid? ) Would those solar/wind power sources be enough for 500k infrastructure? (and I wouldn't like to have those windmills over my head w/o additional protection) Also, I suspect there are no factories, farms, universities in the city? -- how do you place those? How do we build such cities in other colder/hotter locations? Can we build near or in the sea? Ok. So, the video rather looks like a lazy daydream fantasy... If you want to design a city -- do it smart. (and, btw, we DO need to start investing into city design) There are two pillars for your projects: 1. Use modern science. 2. Admit that theres no such thing as "perfect" if humanity evolves and that your city should evolve too. It's like keeping your first cellphone for decades, thinking its perfect. Our technologies evolve, our understanding of our biology and relations evolve. Modern science and new researches should give us understanding how to build and further upgrade (when built) our cities. I'd advice checking Venus Project by Jacque Fresco -- engineer, that has put his whole life on blueprinting and researching for such cities. Also, they are not just designing, they are actually planning to build such a city. And theres much more: should be pretty easy to find their videos on the utube. Totally worth it (basically, most of these thoughts of mine derive from there) P.S. Thanks for the video still :) As stated above: we should invest more in city design and this video is a good step towards this.

    Feynstein 100 : so therefore everyone should live in a city? I'm fine with a tight-knit community, but I grew up in a small New England town and despite it not being a city most people were very helpful and friendly, we got along just fine (generally speaking). Then I lived in a city for a few months and it was the most isolationist I've ever felt despite being always within 20' of another human being; overall it was convenient, but I just didn't feel personally well suited to the environment. Cities certainly have their place, but the assumption that it's the best model for a Utopian society is ignoring a fair percentage of people who are perfectly fine and capable in more rural areas - because they're more adept in that environment. And if it weren't for rural areas supplying the cities with food & materials, cities wouldn't exist (modern sustainability advancements aside). A true Utopia is unattainable because humans have far more diverse and nuanced personalities & needs. Neither local is perfect, because society requires a balance, and many people deman it. Name one fictional Utopian/Dystopian work where the author writes a character that isn't pining for something outside the current "norm" of expected society?

Additionally it is much easier to control every aspect of a much smaller environment, how can a place be kept perfect when there's one house every couple miles. You may like nature as a whole but it's hard to deny it has downsides, such as the danger, which for a place to be perfect utopia it would have to mitigate

    Singaporean-Canadian (or Canadian-Singaporean, raised in Canada after all..) here and... no, it actually totally does. Hear me out- (also I have lived in SG some, with family) have you seen how other cities are? For example in North America by and large our cities are dominated by suburbs that aren't really accessible without a car and that result in isolation, inefficiency, etc- and inner cities are filled with either homeless people, wealthy pricks, or people who probably are barely making ends meet and possibly juggling two or more jobs. And mind you while I say that Canadian cities by and large are miles ahead of American ones in these metrics. If you want, look up the tent cities in California for an extreme idea of what poverty and systemic failure or worse yet- hinderance against the development of communities- looks like. Or look at the traffic, or the commutes of North Americans in general. Consider also the effect Singapore's HDB racial quotas has compared to, say, economic and geographic ghettoization- not just talking black communities here or the historic Jewish ghettoes, you can look it up whether it's historical Chinatowns and Little Italies, indigenous communities, etc, etc, etc... Singapore's far from perfect but compared to any major North American city I can think of- it looks like utter paradise from a city planning, or quality of life viewpoint. Minus the weather and certain uh... quirks of the PAP.

    @@Thanatar13 Ah yes, that is true. The HDB is a marvelous feat, a source of inspiration for many cities in the world. And while I still believe that a sense of community and belonging isn't a wide spread concept in Singapore yet, putting it in perspective like that, I think Singapore has achieved a level of harmony that is a far cry from what is observed in many American and European cities. So I suppose there is a sense of community after all, despite the lack of interaction between neighbours
