I [HEART] cities (and David Byrne)

A Talking Head Dreams of a Perfect City  I stumbled upon this great article by David Byrne (of all people?) in the Wall Street Journal (of all places?).  It talks about the best elements of cities  - size, density, scale, mixed use, security, with a little danger and chaos,  and a little attitude all its own.  I like the way he references elements of each with references to his favorite cities, and how these blend to make the perfect city.
