When I think of cities, I think of my first time in Manhattan; getting out of the 8th Ave Port Authority bus terminal and just being swept away by the noise, the volume of people and the buildings towering above me. And then there was the pizza. It was pure awe.
The tragedy of the Covid-19 pandemic has forced us to think differently. This has led to some stunning technological breakthroughs - you only have to think of the lightning quick development of vaccines for one - and innovative new uses of existing technology.
Can you measure liveability? What do you deem important? The economy, healthcare, job prospects? Quality of bookshops and gyms, access to playgrounds (in my own case)?
The Covid-19 pandemic has underlined the centrality of technology to our lives - "you’re on mute" has become a catchphrase of frequent (too frequent?) Zoom meetings and videocalling has been an essential means for catching up with family or friends.

What’s important to you where you live? Waste is one area that is overlooked all too often, perhaps understandable given what it literally is, but you quickly realise when your city isn’t getting things right

There’s no place like home. And up until recently there has been no place that has built via a 3D printer. This week Elize Lutz and Harriet Dekkers got a digital key to their two bedroom bungalow in the Beatrix canal in the Eindhoven suburb of Bosrijk.
Momentum is building. Earth Day this week saw world leaders falling over themselves to promise even further cuts to climate emissions in a sign that our leaders are taking this issue seriously.
Here in the UK, the phrase "build back better" is an inescapable mantra of the government as it looks to rebuild the economy following a successful vaccination programme (and take attention away from its chaotic handling of the pandemic itself).
The pandemic is changing where we go and how we get there and while none of us will mourn congestion, there’s much to miss when it comes to travelling to live events.
