The Dream of the 15 Minute City
<p>What is the relevance of a walkable city as rents soar? At what point is it too much to pay for, to be able to walk wherever you need to go?</p>
<p>I remember living so close to the downtown area when I first moved to this city that I could walk to the boutique grocery. I could choose from three small grocers, in fact. Several bakeries. <em>And</em> the open air farm market twice a week.</p>
<p>This was the honeymoon period when I could afford to live in a downtown city neighborhood, lovingly known as Water Hill.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.15minutecity.com/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">fifteen minute walkable city</a> is a nice idea. Ideally, folks live and work within a small radius and can divest from fossil fueled transit modes.</p>
