City Planning - Is There an Order to Cities?

The problem with city planning of the type that went on during the fifties and sixties in the urban renewal phase, is that cities just don't work in the same way that suburbs work. Put more in the language of delouse and guaderie, city life is a ri zone. The order emerges or unfolds naturally from the connections made within the city. There's never areas of town that are completely empty where crime can flourish. People feel a sense of community as a member of the city, rather than just a member of their neighborhood.
