Calmer, Quieter Residential Areas - Stronger, Healthier Communities and a Better Quality of Life.
I wonder how many people have heard of Donald Sidney Appleyard (born London, 1928 - died Athens, 1982)? An English-American who studied first architecture and later urban planning at MIT, where he taught for 6 years before moving to Berkeley He worked on neighbourhood design in Berkeley and Athens and citywide planning in San Francisco and Ciudad Guayana. He lectured at over forty universities and acted in a professional capacity in architecture and planning in the United Kingdom, Italy and the United States. Sadly and ironically he died in Athens as a consequence of a traffic accident when he was struck and knocked down by a drunk, speeding driver.
