"Clearly, then, the city is not a concrete jungle, it is a human zoo." ~Desmond Morris. Clearly these great cities in Europe are not the concrete jungles of America.... they are built on history and the designers wanted to reflect their world view on their surroundings. They wanted their cities to be as immortal as they themselves wanted to be immortal. I think in America we want to live well not long... i guess, like people, that is the difference that comes from being young as nations compared to these older societies.http://www.flickr.com/photos/26080359@N08/sets/72157623101497707/
