urban radar and finding places of scale

Human-scale public spaces create a sense of belonging and comfort. In a city, stumbling upon places like Neal’s Yard is undeniably special, and can create indelible memories which fit today’s dialogue of urbanism. This small courtyard, in London’s Covent Garden section, is home to holistic-health restaurants, shops and businesses–accessible through a narrow passage off of Monmouth Street–a reminder of why walking-oriented guides or articles are often the best “radar” for touring a city.
