Perfect street

Today I'll tell you about the perfect street to Example Boulevard Lefebvre in Paris. Of course, when I say "perfect", it's not for you to begin to look at photographs of flaws and poking me in them. Find the flaw can be anytime, anywhere. It's more for you to see, how can build a street in the city think about the comfort and safety of pedestrians.

Unfortunately, in Russia, I do not know any of the street, which would have been a comfortable, beautiful, neat and comfortable. And I'm not talking specifically about the historical buildings, which often pulls even the most nondescript street. I'm talking about planning the sidewalks, roadway, junctions, pedestrian infrastructure elements.

Let's take a closer look at our street:

1. The width of the streets have an average of 40 meters. Located in the center of the tram tracks with beautiful gazonchik.

2. Pedestrian crossings across the way there refuges.

Unfortunately, the residents were unable to defend their street and it came to the builders. Now, the street widened to 10 (!) Strips, cut down trees, and it will become part of the North-West of the chord. It will not be here any modern convenient tram stops neither beautiful nor bikeways or shops, no trees. Will not be there happy to walk the residents with children who will not be here no life. A tube will be another 24 hours, as the rest against the whole thing will be the old 6-band bridge, which is not technically possible to expand.

Perfect street

Take a look at the photo above, pay attention to details. You yourself, for sure, not just walked through the streets of this in Europe. Just everything is relative. If you want to have in your city were the streets and show the pictures to their mayor, the prefect, the chief architect. Make good and bad is worth the same money. Poor do because you are looking for a million excuses for this and, of course, because you do not go to the polls. If after another poorly laid tiles troubled, 20% of the population, the mayor quickly throw off a cliff and more moonlight, no one will.

Good street should look like in Paris. Do not be fooled!
