Picataquis Village

Hi All,

I suppose most of you already know from Carfree Times that I've signed up for a share in the Piscataquis Village project in central Maine. If you don't, you may want to check out the information about this effort to build a carfree village.

Natural Subway Networks?

Study finds that all subway networks have structural features in common

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-18072627

I don't have time to compare the findings to the proposed model Carfree City, but it would be an interesting comparison. The study's results could be useful in designing subway systems in a carfree city.
