In speaking of great streets, it just not say a street as a physical form using to movement. Street are more than public utilities. more than equivalent of water line , sewers, and electricity cables. On the street we meet together and all thing will occured
In exuberance, after afternoon on Stroget in Copenhagen, or in Ramblas Barelona, Monumen avenue in Richmond, and Orchad road in Australia. Peoples through it might exclaim" Oh that was a great street!. " Its a sense that a best streat called "great". Dictionary definitions such as notably large in size, huge, aristocratic, or grand. Would be discarded that the great street not only refer a eminent, long continued, distiquished, modern and so fort. Most particularly, great street are those that are markedly superior in character and quality.
After surving the website and read some article, I add some definition that the great street also bearing the name of community in that place or epitomize the character of community or maybe the history of place.
The best known architect Dolf Schnebli wrote;
The great streets are in out mind. The street were i would..encounter you in discussion with Socrates, waiting for pallas Athena to show me the caffe in which could find Sartre discussing with Corbuzier, Mellviel having a beeer with Faulkner...
And he goes on:
A good urban street is always good in context. Its goodness can change if Hittler is in charge of the city. All Street all bad..to eat in a beautiful space is nice, but if the good is bad. I prefer good food to an agly place. I prefer good food in beatiful place. But bad service can destroy whole thing. Therefore the best good food, good space, good service, good company. We could go on..
Actualy i dont understand what was his wrote..! Like a Poet, every people have a sense to interpret this word..and I can catch his intended from this worl Therefore the best good food, good space, good service, good company that its a steet.. a Great Street.
