A Chicagoan opines on land use, transportation and the walkable city. How to identify your downtown. Leave a comment ». In or to the business or central part of a city.

Ye Olde Townes tend to boast boutique- ...

Isn’t this a good example of a cute, multistory, mixed-use square with outdoor seating in a plaza? Storefronts come right up to the street, and while the midday sun may be discouraging customers from lingering, there aren’t any parking strips or car traffic barring pedestrians. This is, in fact, the corner of a strip mall in suburban Los Angeles.
