…between infrastructure & zoning

11/11/2009 by Pedro Santa

This image attempts to depict the frictions that exist between backbone car infrastructure and zoning. From the post-war highway act of the 50’s to the present alternating effects of laissez-faire and planning (cycles of ‘booms and bursts’) it is evident that the quick returns of automobile driven horizontal expansion have almost completely erased coherent zoning practices. No wonder “parking” thrones a zoning of its own.
