Why do narrow streets invite us to explore? AI Urbanism 2: Alley examines how small shops, doors, w-indows, plants, everyday routines, and connections to larger streets shape the experience of walking. Its twenty chapters compare published observations of alleys and ask how tourism, traffic, and the loss of residents change these places.
Rather than treating an old alley as automatically attractive, this English edition explores the relationships and shared responsibilities that keep neighborhood paths alive.
