She has come up with a very different approach of writing on the things which is and which should have been. Its dynamism and references, what makes it a well researched and much needed article.

So well-articulated on the human cost of top-down urban planning.

As we look up and look down, read through and beyond, it creates a space wide open for our own contemplation, allowing us to consider what living with this city means to us.

The essay opens a curtain onto the city from a bunch of different angles, educates us about them, and, to its greatest credit, allows us to breathe a life of our own into it.

Good stuff.
