Here
we start with a grid consisting of pairs of one-way streets (dark
gray lines). Then the land is zoned in a spiral pattern.
The red area is for retail; it consists of a strip of paired
commercial streets running in opposite directions, rather like Fifth
and Forbes Avenues in the Oakland section of Pittsburgh. The
green area is a linear park, passing through the center of every
large block.
That
leaves two white spirals between the red and the green. One of
them starts at the very center of the plan with city offices (orange
letters), then continues outward with other offices and
businesses. The other white spiral starts one block outside the
city center; it is zoned residential (blue letters).
With
this intertwining, every home and every business is no more than a
block away from both the retail strip and the park.
