Naxar Nugaaleed Posted July 23, 2009 does anyone find the placement of house in all of Somalia a little haphazard This is a 17th century plan for philadelphia had to delete the 1684 map of philadelphia but anyways, if you walk downtown today in center city, it would look like that just with more buildings. I am sure we do not lack the resource these people had in the 1600s today so why can't we have plan cities? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valenteenah. Posted July 23, 2009 ^ I think it's probably down to a lack of qualified city planners. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtisam Posted July 23, 2009 ^^Or issues of land ownership and total privatization, lack of enforcement and bottom line people don’t want to be told how to spend their hard earned cash. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Som@li Posted July 23, 2009 The only city in Somalia where u can see some form of plan is Mogadisho, the rest all look out of place. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chimera Posted July 23, 2009 Naxar that's ironic, since we know from the ruins of ancient abandoned Somali cities such as Maduna, Gondereshe, Abasa and dozens of others in Somalia that they were planned before construction, usually with a Mosque in the center or somewhere prominent and a intricate system of cisterns.

Naxar Nugaaleed Posted July 23, 2009 i find the whole idea that was an ancient somali city named gondereshe ludicrous. Valenteena, again these people made this plans in the 1600s, i doubt they possessed any knowledge of city planning that we don't. Ibti, you can't use your hard money to build a house in the middle of the street. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
