What is your ideal urban / village like? (lemmy.ca)

I'm in Toronto Canada and it's a very car dependent landscape unfortunately and honestly I'm a little jealous seeing European places and how nice they are with their rich history. Meanwhile here in Ontario we have quadruple-carriageways and stroads lined with strip malls and big-box stores with their expansive parking lots. Unless you're with friends, going outside can be pretty bleak to the eye.

My ideal town would be as such

  1. a car-free and dense downtown area with rowhouses and condo units above cafes and shops

  2. lots of trees and greenery

  3. traditional architectural design

What would you think for yours?
