Ebenezer Howard's Garden City Associati...CATCO<br /><br />Ebenezer Howard's Garden City Association's values seem modern and relevant, even in the 21st century. But I wonder how many people read the Association's writings these days, as well as the discussions and reviews about Britain’s 21 New Towns.

Normally when we think green these days, we mean not wasting precious resources, not creating pollution, minimising climate change, recycling resources etc. The Garden City Association were on the right track, even as early as the late 19th century - carefully balanced areas of residences, industry and agriculture within each town; detached houses each surrounded by garden space; sustainable development; wide tree lined roads etc. I was so proud of Sir Ebenezer Howard and his colleagues.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067098918914268503.post-74333366790723396382016-11-30T16:15:28.791+11:002016-11-30T16:15:28.791+11:00Really enjoyed this post.
