- Charles Montgomery: How to make cities that make people happy - The Globe and Mail

- The secrets of the world's happiest cities

The Ghardian: --- "There is a clear connection between social deficit and the shape of cities. A Swedish study found that people who endure more than a 45-minute commute were 40% more likely to divorce. People who live in monofunctional, car‑dependent neighbourhoods outside urban centres are much less trusting of other people than people who live in walkable neighbourhoods where housing is mixed with shops, services and places to work."

- David Brussat: The secret to making great streets

Book review: The secret to making great streets. "Striking and yet predictable in the photographs are the prominence of traditional architecture along these streets, almost to the total exclusion of modern architecture. I wanted to twit the authors by declaring that the only rule needed to make great streets is that the buildings that line them must be traditional."
