This is the fate of every attempt to build a privatized urban environment. No one wants to live in a corporate enclave, especially an isolated one. Healthy cities grow organically, not by billionaire fiat. It's as if not a single person involved in this project has any experience of living in an actual city or any understanding of what makes a healthy, vibrant, desirable community, because *that's exactly what happened*. #urbanism #aniturbanism #architecture #planning
