Description
Summary:As Co-Vid 19 evidence, urban density[1] proved to be a health risk factor, reclaiming the rethinking for higher sustainability. The investigation on post pandemic strategies in the metropolitan cities of Milan and Rotterdam shows emergent modes of spatial re-appropriation towards better risk adaptiveness.   [1] “Density is really an enemy in a situation like this, with large population centers, where people are interacting with more people all the time, that’s where it’s going to spread the fastest.” (Dr. Steven Goodman, epidemiologist at Stanford University).
