How to Paris is Experimenting to Become a 15 Minutes City.
I love that, I love to walk and bike to everywhere I can.
What that means?
Paris is experimenting with the idea of a 15-minute city. Decentralized, mini-hubs where everything you need is within a 15-minute walk or bike ride.
School and work and eating out and groceries and health services and a library, accessible with 15 minutes on foot, bike, scooter or wheelchair.
This is the kind of a city I dream to live…a very walkable city.
This project is influenced by urbanist Carlos Moreno.
