First Principles

"Instead of laying down an arbitrary design for a region, it might be in order to find a plan that nature has already laid down...a regional design of streams and valleys that provide superb natural connectors, into the very heart of the urban area. Where continuity has been broken, the pieces should be reclaimed wherever it is at all possible."
 
~ William H. Whyte, The Last Landscape, 1968
