"Haussmanns renovation of Paris was a city-led master plan situation where Napoleon III gave urban planner Haussmann full authority over building new streets and sanitation AND a form-based code: small-lot mixed-use mult-family buildings rising 4-6 stories tall built wall to wall so they form solid street walls and coherent blocks The city provided good infrastructure AND GOOD CODE; the private builders built it out. It also helped that paris sits on top of the limestone quarries that supply the (naturally fire-resistant) stone used to build the single-stair buildings"

"The honeycomb blocks of Paris have small courtyards. Not enough to provide recreational green space but enough to provide good light and ventilation for dual-aspect units. Importantly these Haussmann-era buildings (mid-19th century) are usually 5-6 stories with 2-4 apartments per floor (larger ones on lower floors smaller ones on top). Each building might contain 8-15 units which is a social scale that even parents with kids are comfortable with"

"@UmarQadmiri the private courtyard within a larger shared courtyard can be an aspiration or luxury of the HNWIs. When i was an au pair for a very affluent Florentine family they had a private courtyard that was carved out of a larger courtyard block. They had the best of both worlds"

"When US cities figure out courtyard blocks and other forms of family-friendly density they will rapidly surpass Copenhagen and the other great Euro cities on standards relating to quality of life infrastructure and the built environment public arts and monuments etc. American urbanism has always lagged because cities have failed to appeal to half of population. If they can urbanize the American middle class they will finally be able to leverage American population revenue and political will for urban development"

"Reminder that the MOST walkable and affordable neighborhoods are made up of medium density mixed-use multi-family blocks. Theyre rare in the US because we lack a strong tradition of mixed-used multifamily blocks. And planners stopped planning any at all of them a century ago.

"Most Americans dislike apartment buildings because they associate them with low-income housing projects and with luxury megadevelopments (both lacking lacking income diversity yard access dual-aspect units and commercial integration). The country* has never had a strong tradition of small-lot mixed-use multifamily buildings that provides a "big house with a yard" for the middle income people in the city. As American awareness of courtyard blocks increases expect to see more Americans DEMANDING new courtyard block districts in their cities. *NYC is an exception but even its best perimeter"

"Instead of giving up more population and revenue to suburbs cities need to relearn how to do master-planned expansions. Follow the lead of Suisun City which is using an expansion plan to bring walkable sustainable beautiful urban fabric (including courtyard blocks) to a growing economic region. Chances are your favorite urban neighborhood was a master-planned expansion from the 19th and early 20th century. Almost all of my fave courtyard block neighborhoods are"
