Street Coverage of City = 9% (4.23 sq miles) comparable to Europe (Verona, Italy)
Data Map
Downtown = an additional 3.3 sq miles/20,500 people
1 sq mile sub-divisions (640acres = 25acre X 25
acre square aka 640house = 2560people)
Each block will have 25 houses on each side of the road, with a alley-road after 12houses.
Each subdivision will have 12 such blocks (12.5 to be more exact)
We can think of a sub-division as small town (640house) and a block as a village(50houses)
The perimeter/outer roads of the 1 sq mile subdivisions will be major 2way roads
The vertical alley road will be a minor 2way road
The regular horizontal roads will be 1way roads in alternating directions.
