regardless of any individual preference about the style of any of the new street furniture, the most discouraging fact is that it will all be abused and defaced a short time into its life. Perhaps they should have built in tasers to zap would be vandals.
And to reply to Unimaginative re the weekly pedestrian takeover of the streets in Bogota... no, they are not at all focused on retail or cultural areas. Its more of a meeting of the masses and a very direct statement about taking back the streets from the automobile.
anyone interested in learning more about the transformation of Bogota is recommended to view this program from the e^2 series: (in 3 parts)
