I wished we had something walkable like this. Sadly developers only care about making $$$ and not about legacy.

The Aesthetic City looks at the new Cayala district of Guatemala City, designed from the ground up by Estudio Urbano with Léon Krier.

It’s a human-scaled, mixed-use, moderate density development using traditional town planning principles, incorporating a mix of Spanish colonial, classical, and indigenous Mayan architecture; it’s designed for the local climate, and is a carfree / autoluw environment.

People flock to it. They spend money there. It’s such a success, new developments nearby advertise how close they are to it.

I don’t want to say “see, this isn’t hard,” because in our current car-centric, Euclidean-zoned planning environment, with every type of NIMBY group waiting to complain about the nerve of other humans to exist within their field of view, it’s very hard to build something like this.

Cayala succeeded because it was an entirely private real estate development on privately owned land, whose owners could have built a cluster of generic five-over-ones that would degrade in a tropical environment, but chose instead to allow themselves to be won over to this kind of vision.

If I were king of Chicago I would insist that this be the norm, and that when parts of land are up for redevelopment or expansion, this kind of process and insistence on high-quality, detailed building be mandatory.

Thinking again of the area around the UIC Circle Campus, the weird dead zone in the Motor Row District / South Commons hospital campus, or any of the clusters of office parks out towards the airport or Schaumburg, there has to be a strategy to rehabilitate these non-places into real places.

In Guatemala, New Utopian Neighborhood? Or a Testament to Inequality?

The development of Cayalá is utopian, serene and prizewinning. As an elite stronghold in one of Latin America’s most unequal nations, it is also divisive. source https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/18/world/americas/cayala-guatemala.html

The Paseo Cayala, in Zone XVI of Guatemala City. (Estudio Urbano) Cayalá is a new town on the edge of crime-ridden Guatemala City that has grown stronger since it was planted in 2011. I’ve written about its lovely mixture of Spanish and Mayan design influences, starting as early as 2012 in one of my weekly columns for the Providence Journal. In a 2015 post on my blog I made what is now a common…
