The Set Design of Sesame Street (Feat. Jane Jacobs) An article about The Quintessential Urban Design of ‘Sesame Street’ with a bunch of photos? This is extremely up my alley. One of the show’s big influences when it began was Jane Jacobs’ landmark book, The Death and Li

I love this article on the set design of Sesame Street and how it was influenced by Jane Jacobs’ ideas about vibrant urban spaces like the “sidewalk ballet” and “eyes on the street”. [kottke.org]

Mind-blowing fact: Sesame Street's set design was a deliberate rejection of car-centric suburbia, inspired by urbanist Jane Jacobs. The stoops, the street life, the "eyes on the street"—it was all designed to foster a vibra... https://kottke.org/25/07/the-set-design-of-sesame-street-feat-jane-jacobs

Other stuff I’ve seen also gets into this idea of collective safety (Jane Jacobs’ “The Death and Life of Great American Cities” & its “eyes on the street” concept comes to mind.)

Social science is validating Jane Jacobs' "eyes on the street" insights on crime prevention. Simple urban design solutions like better lighting and fixing up abandoned lots can lead to dramatically fewer murders. youtu.be/F-9RCKKvoJw?...

The Jane Jacobs that I like is when she looks at what is working in a city with her own eyes and describes how and why it is working. Instead of using appeals to authority or theory.

Jane Jacobs' "eyes on the street" hits different now

Women's safety: 'Ask us what we want' city planners urged Women should be consulted in the planning of safer public spaces, says an academic in Leeds.

As we've known for a long time, the current car-first/car-only approach to UK urban planning is hostile to everyone except men. All of these things talked about would make towns and cities better for everyone; especially embedding the need for "eyes on the street", as espoused by Jane Jacobs.
