Urban Infrastructure Systems; A Holistic andTechnologically Advanced Approach

Urban Infrastructure Systems in character towns recognize that modern infrastructure critical to a successful community can also be a visual asset. They can be, and should be, beautiful, holistic, mutually reinforcing and technologically advanced. The physical and programmatic infrastructure ensures the health, safety, education and welfare of the town’s citizens. Economic development, business retention and recruiting and social infrastructure depend on available, reliable and cost-effective public goods and services that are beautiful; they do not need to be eye sores. Smart cities are leveraging technology to accelerate the usefulness and efficiency of their basic systems. Infrastructure does not need to be ugly; in fact it needs to be a positive visual asset for the city.
